@dick_kickem 420 for the sake of the argument, the explosion was steam based, not nuclear. you basically drop a super hot rock into a cooking pot and close the lid real fast, it goes boom. technically the water/steam was radioactive, but it's not a nuclear explosion. so the explosion was not nuclear, then it was on fire for a bit, which was the main problem as far as radioactive contamination goes. tl;dr it was radioactive material on fire, not a nuclear explosion, the explosion was steam. basically the argument is: you got boiled in water, not fried in oil. same-ish result, one's slightly less worse than the other.

Its not that nuclear technology is dangerous, as you said, technology is advance enough that something happening like in Chernobyl is highly unlikely.. The concerne is danger from natural causes, like what happened in Fukushima. We dont know what future holds, some catastrophe on bigger scale will happen sooner or later, and then we might have serious problems with those reactors and nuclear waste. Which also is another concerne, nuclear waste, besides Finland, nobody else permanently store their nuclear waste for now.. Waste is being hold in the power planet itself, or on some locations, but not permanently sealed and buried, and in that state is always potentialy dangerous..

Chernobyl was a catastrophe by design which was only able to happen duo to the use the nowadays very outdated solid fission moderator Graphite and the use of only 2% enriched Uranium (instead of commonly used 3-5% which is more expensive) so the catastrophy wouldnt have been a suprise if looked at from nowadays perspective. Fukushima is a nuclear reactor build on the edge of one of the most earthquake torn islands. I cannot imagine a case of a modern nuclear reactor going boom if its not right at the edge of a continental plate. You can run planes into them and the fission reaction is self controlled duo to the design of the reactor, if every worker in a nuclear facility suddenly died the reactors would happily keep on running until fission stops, cooling and moderation is self sustained and unless not explicitly told to do so otherwise by human intervention (or the water pool having a leak...) the fission will decrease not increase.

The water have to be clean. If there's any salts or unknown ions in the water they will over time make deposits on the side of the reactor walls, which will decrease the heat transmission coefficient, making the water less good at cooling. Most powerplants use deuterium (heavy water/D2O) as cooling and neutron moderator, which has to be very pure.

Is the reactor designed so that the maximum thermal energy generation cannot overcome the coolant reservoir and catastrophically breakdown the structures and melt down? If so.. 3b. .. Is that dependant on the physical spacing restrictions placed between the fuel rods? Or it takes into account the core structure breaking down and the fuel becoming more densely compacted?

_"I can still see the bright-crimson glow, it was like the reactor was glowing. This wasn't any ordinary fire, it was some sort of shining. It was pretty. I'd never seen anything like it in the movies. That evening everyone spilled out onto their balconies, and those who didn't have them went to friends' houses. We were on the ninth floor, we had a great view. People brought their kids out, picked them up, said, "Look! Remember!" And these were people who worked at the reactor -- engineers, workers, physics instructors. They stood in the black dust, talking, breathing, wondering at it. People came from all around on their cars and their bikes to have a look. We didn't know that death could be so beautiful."_ --- Nadezhda Petrovna Vygovskaya, evacuee from the town of Pripyat

@@nddragoon I wanted to add this beautiful quote, relating to the idea of "mesmerizing", but it's true it could lead to confusion, so thanks for your clarification. From what I understand, Cherenkov radiation is typically observed from a submerged reactor as water significantly slows the speed of light, that's a necessary condition. The Chernobyl meltdown wasn't happening under the ocean, and I guess the light's speed slowdown from air isn't enough, so it wasn't Cherenkov radiation. When I saw the glowing beam in the HBO series I first thought it was some artistic liberty. But yeah apparently it really looked like that. Because, if I understand, hot air goes up, and as it's ionized, glows along the way. What a fascinating sight it must have been.

@pavlenikacevic49765 жыл бұрын
@Super Cool ok, well water undergoes phase change from liquid to gas, which happens due to average kinetic energy of molecules surpassing hydrogen bond energy of liquid water, and hydrogen bonds, like any other covalent bond, are a purely quantum phenomena Also, the very motion of these bubbles is governed by Newton's laws, which arise as a consequence of motion of the smallest particles comprising the system, and time evolution of these particles is governed by Schrodinger's equation

@Super Cool yeah, but my point is that everything that happens on a molecular level is governed by QM principles, you just need to dig deep enough to reach a point where you need a quantum explanation

That is TOTALLY AMAZING !!!!! I am 63 and always was interested in nuclear energy. I still am learning how radiation creates heat. I know how the 1986 Chernobyl accident happened. I have the ultimate respect for anyone that works around something so invisible and so deadly. That reaction created such a beautiful blue light. The bubbles that were created in the reaction, are they radioactive?
@samuelcall56092 жыл бұрын
The bubbles are steam that is generated from the heat of the nuclear reaction. Think less of the “bubbles being radioactive” and more about how the radiation is dissipated through the water. Radiation in the form of high energy particles is being blasted outward from the core and the water is a dense material that gets in those particles’ way. That is why you can stand at the edge of the pool and receive less radiation than if you were on a flight, because the high energy particles have collided with the molecules in the water, slowing them down, transferring their energy, heating up the water, and dissipating.

Excellent presentation. I learned a lot and really enjoy the beauty of the blue glow. Question: does the water eventually become radioactive? How about the bubbles? Do the bubbles contaminate the air when they reach the surface?
@tochka8322 жыл бұрын
1. water itself cannot get radioactive, there needs to be metals present that could bind neutrons to release later, so, it depends on impurities 2. bubbles are gases of oxygen and hydrogen, which could get promoted to unstable isotopes, but in really small quantities oxygen19+ have half life of dozens of seconds at max, with not much to emit to begin with hydrogen3, tritium, has life time of about 12 years and not much energy, but potentially dangerous if it bonds into heavy tritium water in the environment but quantities of it are really quite small to my knowledge
