[QUOTE="tsutsuji, post: 4520187, member: 321287"] Pictures are available in [url]http://www.tepco.co.jp/nu/fukushima-np/handouts/2013/images/handouts_130929_03-j.pdf[/url] I am afraid you are comparing data that cover different things. The 6000 m3/hour of seawater cover the cooling of both the cores and the spent fuel pools of units 5 and 6, using thermal exchangers to cool fresh water in the secondary circuits. The flow rate in each secondary circuit must be a fraction of those 6000 m3/hour, depending on the efficiency of each thermal exchanger. The water added to storage is quite unrelated to the amount poured into the reactors. The water added to storage is mostly related to the ground water level and the size of the cracks in the basement walls, through which ground water infiltrates into basements. [/QUOTE]
