The housing itself could be re-fitted to generate enough energy without the uranium because of the resonance and size of the cavity as well as tall enough and heavy enough on ita own to provide energy. There's no turbine in the cooling tower, which proves that the engineers are just wasting their time and half-assed to emplore you to believe there isn't enough to go around.

One could imagine the heated water being used to heat homes and provide them hot water, at least for moderately to densely populated regions. But the infrastructure would need to be put in place.

The water that is cooled by the tower doesn't actually go into the reactor. It is pumped to a tank to surround a convoluted pipe that has hot steam in it so the steam inside the pipe system can condense to liquid water which is actually trapped inside the reactor and doesn't evaporate or anything. They basically use water to cool more water inside pipes

If it’s not a big enough body of water you do not want to discharge hot water back into it because it will harm the environment and aquatic life edit power plants that are built around the oceans and the Great Lakes discharge back into the source because it will not have a inverse effect on the body of water

It 100% is steam power. It just using a more expensive and more efficient fuel source. This is how it was explained in the submarine service when describing how it provides power and propulsion, “Hot rock make steam, steam make go.”

My only complaint was that she didn't explain us how it actually works. She just reads some measurements, shows what it looks like inside and tells us it has no moving parts and that it's not the reactor. I bet, you can't explain what this cooling tower does on just the basis of this video.

This reminds me of the Delaware Bay Pilot who was climbing up the side of an oil tanker in Delaware Bay and had something like a heart attack and fell off the ladder and was then accidentally struck by the pilot boat and disappeared. I was told about that by the captain of the pilot boat. Did these guys have safety lines attached while they were climbing? It didn't look like it, but I couldn't tell.

Thanks for this it is great. No wonder you are in great shape. How often do you climb it? At Wolf Creek we have a 5500 acre lake used as cooling water. It is only a suggestion but since Hope Creek is a BWR and steam to turbine is slightly radioactive, then turbine is slightly contaminated and thus condenser is as well. So how is it there is no radioactivity out of the tower as you say. Well as long as there are no tube leaks, there is no pathway and even if there is a tube leak it is from circulating water into condenser vice out to circ water and tower because circ water is at a higher pressure. Just a little more detail that might be useful to folks but I do appreciate you pointing out the cloud is exactly that not smoke. Most press releases when talking about any reactor always show the tower like it is the reactor or they leave that impression. Great job and I wish you continued success at Hope Creek. Beautiful part of New Jersey. I am in awe of the guys who build em too. I could not do your job. Afraid of heights. Keep up the good work.
