I love how one tiny slip up and everything goes south immediately. Alarms start blaring and the reactor basically self destructs like Chernobyl. RBMK is truly nothing to mess around with. "And they through the switch to drive in the control rods which were also the shutdown rods. Unfortunately, the design of those rods had the tendency of making the situation worse instead of better."
You do know that the HBO mini-series is all false information? The only reason Chernobyl exploded was because they had almost every single rod out (which is not safe btw) and when they had shutdown the reactor because they couldn't start it, an effect known as the "Graphite Tip effect" took place. A major power spike occurred, all the water evaporated and the lid flew off from the pressure. Then the fuel rods melted, making hydrogen and it mixed with the oxygen in the air making an explosion, and all the loose neutrons from the fission flew into the air.
@@25hawkeye That's what I heard the first time. "When the test began, almost all of the control rods were removed and technicians lost control of the flow of coolant" I also heard of them keeping the unit at a dangerous low power so I wasn't sure what was the case. But I am now. Thanks! That power spike is referred to as thermal runaway btw.
@@zachzebra56 yeah, so about that... this is a simulator, literally made to learn to operate a BWR, so not an RBMK. Nuclear reactors are not "if you touch a random button it goes boom". Nuclear reactors are actually very very safe but are just equipped with a bad reputation. This video demonstrated a glitch going through the 105% aprm auto-scram cap.
@@OhKopo well ya that's true. These reactors in this game Definitely lack certain safety systems real life reactors have. It sucks that nuclear power has a bad reputation. It's easily the most reliable source of electricity. They can produce electricity that's cheaper and cleaner then oil and coal. And they don't have the various downsides wind and solar have.
@@zachzebra56 Yep. Well this game is meant to be simple to let people understand. Unit one is 8 times simpler than unit 2 which includes the turbine control room with auxiliary pumps and just too much to be written here. Even polisher regeneration is done on manual panels. There are safety systems such as the DG, RCIC, LCPI and well RHR. This is a BWR 4 that was kept very simple.
Made basically the exact same video as this less than a week after you made this. Did not even see this video until now. (Mine was mainly just a joke video.)

Chernobyl reactor 4 on April 26th 1:23:42 AM 1986:
real
I like how they used the az5 sound on chernobyl
the fact that this has literally effects for the explosion is just crazy... the boiling sounds just going louder and louder before the alarms
Honestly there is no effect for the explosion. The bang sound is kinda suprprising to me, maybe it's the turbine going crazy while it desyncs :D
@@DelfinoDelphisii dunno tbh sounds more like a explosion sound
That water just went *POOF* GONE
