I read somewhere that this design does not have a containment dome. So basically containment wise (in comparison to Chernobil) this reactor is a bit better that it uses reactor containment vessel, but it does not use containment dome.
I also read that on TMI a similar hydrogen explosion occurred but it was contained by containment dome.
- neutronicus 16y agoIt doesn't have a concrete containment dome. It's got a steel containment vessel surrounding the main reactor vessel, though.
