--- Quote from: Marlin on Sep 15, 2006, 01:52 ---Incores come out of the top (CE) or the bottom (Westinghouse) depending on design and in some (B&W) a separate incore tank is used for storage that is separate from the fuel pool. The boron is a crust left by leakage, just as calcium builds up on a shower head or faucet but only in PWRs.

So it depends on the manufacturer! Nice one I didnt realize that thanks for the info. We also have occasional boron encrustments in our  PWR unit. Nothing wild though.
