[QUOTE="artis, post: 6558464, member: 652341"] Yes this is a known fact about the lack of containment for RBMK's and the positive void coefficient, although after 1986 all existing RBMK's were retrofitted to decrease void coefficient and increase safety systems and make sure workers cannot make such blatant mistakes as before. That being said then in 2011 Fukushima happened , quite frankly can we even calculate the risk of a well maintained and retrofitted RBMK having a destructive event VS any other Gen 2 reactor in operation even with a containment? I do realize the RBMK flaws and any way we slice it it's history and no new block will ever be built. [/QUOTE]
