I wish I could go visit a BWR simulator and see these differences.  I would actually like to see some casualties on a BWR.

Come on down! We are in there 4 nights a week.  :P

I have to update the worst thing I experienced so far. Yesterday, I experienced (as CRS) a fire in both the 2B and 2D RHR pump rooms while HPCI was running in CST to CST with a loss of one of my start up sources and a failure of 2 emergency buses. I was down to two core spray pumps for make up and 2 level indicators. :( But it was only worse at the time because of the 5 million alarms I had due to all the bus outages. In retrospect, and having now experienced it, it wasn't that bad. Just felt weird standing there waiting for level to get to -172 so I could blow down and inject because it took forever.

For me, there is still nothing like trying to maintain reactor level -195 to -172 during a full power ATWS with no turbine.  :P

Nutty Neutron,

Wanna go up to Fermi and watch some simulator drills? I can get you a contact and help you get in to watch.

Mike,

Detroit is not too far away.  I could go check it out during a long off.

Dave LOL! Sorry

Neutron, it's about 30 miles south of Detroit, in Newport about 22 miles north of Toledo.

Level 0 = -172
2/3 core height= =195

Just wondering.

Fermi's level indication actually made sensde since everything was referenced to TAF so anything above TAF was a positive number. I believe -172 is TAF and -195 is whatever the lowest number was at Fermi after a Terminate and Prevent.
