  • HP Tech......Well Thats My Title Anyways.
The questions I have are.....what kind of designed plant allows access to the nuclear core? I believe that might be a little vague......

What if he was just interested in making a bomb and blowing up stuff out in the country with his drinking buddies on the weekend?

Most likely, I'm assuming plants in other countries have security, its going to still be difficult to bring said explosives into the plant and strap it to the nuclear core for detonation.

I don't think they meant core when they said reactor probably using it as a general term for the plant.

May not need to bring it in, MacGyver DIY may have been one of the sites he browsed.  :P

Maybe he was trying to determine if the use of explosive plugs in the S/g's were a viable option for his project?    I do remember using them many years ago...

   Me thinks you are dating yourself, it has been several decades since they were used. I suspect a well stocked lab, welding supplies, and janitorial closets may provide basic material or maybe my Anarchists Cookbook is a little dated.

agreed, that would be an untrue statement,...

my all too legitimate interest begins here:

I remember when the B&W people lost explosive SG tube plugs in 1981 and I had to stay another couple hours in containment until they found them.

The entire "story".

Hmmmm... maybe not but many family members of young Jihadi's expressed suprise that their relatives would radicalize or participate in terrorism.

Prior to reading this one please note that he had bookmarked sites about Muslim jihadi attacks.

No no, I mean the claims that are being made. 5 quatloos says this comes out to be a reactionary islamaphobe.

   Perhaps but that does not negate his viewing inappropriate material at work. One of the articles above makes your point. I don't think the plants reaction is islamophobic perhaps the news articles may lean that way but who is a jihadi, young Muslim man infatuated with the Jihadi movement. I would think if he has been surfing jihadi sites he is a candidate for radicalization. How many families have said that they can't believe that their son would do such a thing. We will probably never know as he is most likely on a watch list now and he knows it.

We used them at Oconee in 1982. I think that was the last time I saw them.

Actually B&W used them up to about 87/88, ONS, MNS, CNS, VCSNS particularly during the sharp U-Bend recovery projects!  Most of the plugs were mechanical, but they justified using some explosive plugs.

Not just 'a' plug, but three at a time, each the equivalent of a third of a stick of dynamite. Indian Point 2 managed to set all three off in the channel head instead of in the tubes (oops.) So... a whole stick of dynamite loose in the channel head and... 'boom' followed by a lot of metallic sounds as the blast cover flew across the basement of containment. Very impressive and a quite unforgettable sight as the black cloud rolled out of the manway.

And then there was the time I thought that one was going off in my hand...

  • Now, LEARN DAMIT!!!!
At Trojan in 1991 or so, they used explosive sleeves for their cracked tubes. Stuck a new sleeve up the tube and setoff a charge that explosively welded the sleeve to the inside of the tube. They recovered a lot of formerly plugged tubes that way. All that to avoid replacing the steam generators. Then they forgot to anneal one of the tubes following its new sleeving and it failed about a year later. That resulted in the decision to close the plant. (simplified)
