RE:Russia building reactors worldwide

[sudzie191]

Hope the Russians not building Cernobyl desings, wow, no containment, inadequate control and shutdown systems, and poorly trained operators who didn't understand what they were doing for their load rejection test.
That test was to simulate loss of transmission line, have the reactor power back down, but still run the turbine and generator to keep all the cooling pums going and the lights on, a test that is routine for our Candu's and happens everytime there is a loss of line, in bad ice storms or the grid falls apart as it has a few times.

Our Candu control systems under computer control, run the reactor power down on loss of line, sometimes dump steam to keep boiler pressure under control, equalize reactor power with station laods and can run like that for a while. If the line comes back, ie breakers close, the reactor goes back up to full power to supply the load.

THose Russian Cernobyl operators were trying to do all that under manual control, so poor instrumentation, poorly trained, they raised the power in the reactor till it ignited the graphite maderator in the core, and it just burned, releasing fuel to the atmosphere, very very bad. THey still can't live in the area..

April 30 (Reuters) - Russia has been notoriously brazen in using state-owned companies as instruments of national power. President Vladimir Putin's natural-gas wars with Belarus and Ukraine made headlines and sometimes left substantial parts of Europe in the cold. But Moscow's exploits in other energy-related areas have been less noticed. Recent revelations about the concerted Russian effort to buy up uranium resources across the globe may change that. For Moscow's state-owned nuclear-energy company, Rosatom, has made successful inroads into markets around the world. It is Rosatom - not France's Areva or the United States' Westinghouse - that has 29 nuclear reactors in various stages of planning and construction in more than a dozen countries, the largest number of nuclear reactors being built internationally.
