Dominate South Asia

"Just leave this question to our assistant engineer to answer." Kyatlov said.

To the assistant engineer? This answer is really shameless. It seems that this chief engineer really does not understand professional knowledge.

After hearing the other party's words, Asif's face immediately turned cold, and he said to Putin on the side: "Mr. Putin, I really didn't expect that the engineers of your country's nuclear power plant are actually of this level. A chief engineer can actually connect a nuclear power plant." You can’t even answer the most important safety question! How can I trust your country’s nuclear power level?”

As the head of the KGB responsible for domestic production safety tasks, Putin also looked gloomy: "Comrade Kyatlov, why can't you even answer a basic question about a nuclear power plant?"

"This is not a basic issue about nuclear power plants at all. This is a very professional issue." Kyatlov said forcefully.

"Then you, the chief engineer of a nuclear power plant, why can't you even answer a professional question?" Asif asked.

"I used to be the chief engineer of a thermal power plant. I know the thermal power plant well, but I am not very familiar with nuclear reactors," Kyatlov said.

"Your country is so interesting. A chief engineer of a thermal power plant who doesn't understand nuclear reactors can actually be the chief engineer of a nuclear power plant!" Asif said, "This time I came to your country, it was an eye-opener for me."

Putin's face was cold and he said to Kyatlov: "Comrade Kyatlov, given your current performance, you don't understand nuclear reactors at all, and you are simply not qualified for the task of chief engineer of a nuclear power plant. I will report to my superiors and transfer him." Engineers who know this are here. Before that, please end all duties here."

"But Reactor No. 4. There will be a performance test soon, and I have to be the commander-in-chief here." Kyatlov said: "This time the turbine generator capacity of the reactor is tested to verify that it can operate in the event of insufficient power. Whether sufficient power can be supplied to the reactor's safety system, especially the water pump, is of great significance for the normal and safe shutdown of the reactor when it is attacked."

He spoke these words very fluently, because this was what he wanted to write in the performance report. When he completed this experiment, he relied on the experience of this experiment. He will be transferred to Moscow and work at the National Nuclear Energy Agency. This is an opportunity for him to be promoted.

At the same time, this is also the direct cause of the accident at the Chernobyl Nuclear Power Plant. It was because of his experimental accident that it caused a huge disaster.

Now, he has no chance.

"We'll wait until new engineers arrive," Putin said.

"Comrade Putin, I have a very good relationship with Comrade Tyamikov of the Politburo." At this time, Kyatlov began to show his support.

Such words. This made the upright Putin even more disgusted. He immediately said: "Even if you have a good relationship with the General Secretary, you cannot continue to work here. I will report everything here directly to the General Secretary."

This time the Pakistanis came to inspect, it was very important, related to the export of Soviet nuclear power plants, but now, they are all messed up by this Kyatlov. He made a big fool of himself, a person who doesn’t understand nuclear power at all. . But to be the chief engineer here is an embarrassment to the great Soviet Union!

It was already the 27th when the inspection team returned from the Soviet Union. The Soviet Union invited them to inspect other nuclear power plants. Just like that, after a delay, they finally came back.

Hamad was relieved. The 26th passed, and there was no loud noise over Chernobyl. News came from the Soviet Union about the incompetent Chief Engineer Kyatlov. Has been sent to Siberia.

The truth of the accident seemed to appear before Mhamad's eyes.

At 0:30 on the 26th. A somewhat drunk Kyatlov came to the control room and ordered the experiment to start. By running the reactor at a lower power level, the energy is reduced from the normal power of 3,200 megawatts to 700 megawatts. When the power of the reactor is less than 700 megawatts, serious positive cavitation reactivity will occur, which is quite dangerous. Unfortunately, Kyatlov, a layman, does not know this.

Moreover, because Kyatlov was late, he issued several orders that violated the operation, causing the reactor's power to drop rapidly. As a result...

"Report, the xenon-135 in the nuclear reactor is increasing rapidly." A monitor reported.

Xenon-135 is a nuclear fission product that is attracted to neutrons. If you want to slow down a nuclear reactor, you need to insert control rods, also known as cadmium rods. This rod can absorb neutrons. When the control rod is inserted too fast time, the rapid increase of this element.

“Our control rods were inserted too quickly, resulting in the rapid formation of this byproduct,” another technician reported: “Following safety regulations, we need to shut down the reactor now.”

Shutdown? Of course Kyatlov did not agree with this. The control rods were inserted too fast, resulting in a large amount of by-products. Moreover, the power of the nuclear reactor dropped too fast, almost one-twentieth of the expected value.

"Then, let's pull out the control rods and increase the power of our reactor. At the same time, the xenon-135 will be reduced to the normal range, right?" Kyatlov said.

"Theoretically, it's possible." The technician could only answer bravely.

"There are only seven control rods left, and the rest are all pulled out."

Originally, the nuclear reactor operator wanted to refuse. According to the operating procedures, at least fifteen control rods should be retained for the safety of the nuclear reactor. Now there are only seven. However, no one refuted Kyatlov's words. Here, he is the supreme leader.

"The power has risen to 200 megawatts." The monitor said.

"Start the experiment." Kyatlov said.

The power is normal. The experiment began. The controller turned off the power of the water pump. The turbine generator was driven by inertia, and the speed of the water flow was reduced. At the same time, the water pump was restarted.

"Success!" Kyatlov was very satisfied. Unfortunately, he didn't know that the reactor was already burning wildly. This kind of graphite light water reactor, under normal circumstances, the core of the reactor should be water, but now, the core is all steam. When there is no water, only water vapor, the power of this kind of graphite reactor increases rapidly, especially at least fifteen control rods are required. Now there are only seven, which can't absorb excess neutrons at all.

After completing the experiment, Kyatlov issued the last order to make the reactor explode: "Emergency shutdown."

In fact, this was because Kyatlov was anxious to go home. If the reactor was shut down normally, this nuclear accident would not have happened.

The operator pressed the AZ-5, which is the rapid emergency defense 5 button. All control rods were inserted. Death was waving at them. The countdown began, seven seconds!

The power of the reactor increased sharply. In just seven seconds, the water vapor pressure in the reactor core exceeded the upper limit! "

Three seconds after the emergency shutdown button was pressed, the reactor power had exceeded the specified value by five times. The intense internal heating deformed the control rod pipe. The control rod was stuck after only entering one-third of the pipe. Without the control rod, the reactor was completely out of control.

Seven seconds later, the reactor power rose to ten times the rated power, the fuel rods began to melt, the steam pressure increased rapidly, and a violent explosion occurred at the top of the reactor!

The melted nuclear material inside was blown into the sky like gas, and nuclear radiation spread everywhere. Moreover, the high-temperature graphite blocks in the reactor exposed to the air immediately combined with the oxygen in the air, triggering a graphite fire. . The fire caused the radioactive material to spread and contaminate a wider area.

Kyatlov had long forgotten that he was an engineer here. He ran out, jumped into his car, and drove out of the plant.

The first group to arrive at the explosion site was Lieutenant Pravik, who was on duty at the second fire station of the nuclear power plant. He led 28 firefighters and rushed out.

They worked in the intense radiation, trying to put out the fire. At this time, the radiation intensity on the roof of the turbine plant was 20,000 roentgens, and the radiation intensity inside the exploded reactor was 30,000 roentgens. And only 500 roentgens of radiation for 5 hours can cause acute death. In this way, Lieutenant Pravik died two weeks later, and 28 firefighters died. Only 16 members of the team survived the 20th anniversary of the accident, and the rest all died of radiation sickness. However, it was they who rushed to the scene in the first time that saved the No. 3 reactor and the entire nuclear power plant.

(It has been many days since the Tianjin explosion. Salute to the firefighters who died in the accident. You are the cutest people of our time!)

Now, the direct perpetrator of the accident, Chief Engineer Kyatlov, has been driven away. Without his blind command and brutal operation, the Chernobyl Nuclear Power Plant should not repeat the previous tragedy, right?

That's all Muhammad can do.

In later generations, the Chernobyl Nuclear Power Plant accident was also the straw that broke the camel's back for the Soviet Union. This accident gave The Soviet Union suffered huge losses. The rescue work cost many soldiers their lives and tens of billions of dollars, which made the Soviet Union even worse. Moreover, this accident was also an important reason for the conflict between Ukraine and Russia.

The Soviet Union disintegrated and the United States dominated. Since then, the world has become more unstable and China's international situation has become more dangerous. In order to maintain its huge military expenditure, the United States needs to find enemies and naturally began to exaggerate the Chinese threat theory.

Pakistan and China are strategic allies. In order to prevent the United States from dominating, they will hold on to the Soviet Union and live a few more years.

Muhammad's vision has now seen further, and the future situation will be more difficult and complicated. (To be continued ~^~)
