Schematic diagram of an RBMK Schematic side view of the layout of an RBMK reactor core The reactor hall and piping systems of the RBMK reactor. The reactor pit or vault is made of reinforced concrete and has dimensions 21.6m × 21.6m × 25.5m. It houses the vessel of the reactor, which is annular, made of an inner and outer cylindrical wall and ...

English: RBMK-Core of Chernobyl-4: Positions of control rods (insertion depth in centimeters) approximately 1min30s before the explosion on Saturday, 26. April 1986, last signal of SKALA control system at 1:22:30 h. green: (167) control rods blue: (12) neutron detectors yellow: (32) shortened absorber rods inserted from below the reactor core
At the time, only two phases were complete, reactors 1, 2, 3 and 4. Both units were intended to be RBMK-1000 and would generate approximately 1,000 megawatts each, and also supported by two cooling towers located south-east from the reactors. They were side by side in the same way as reactors 3–4 were built.
The plant has four nuclear reactors of the RBMK-1000 type, all of which are first generation units similar to that of Kursk and Chernobyl units 1 and 2. Each unit has a separate reactor building but the turbine hall is shared between 2 reactors. [2] In 2008, construction started on Leningrad II with 2 VVER-1200 type reactors. They will ...
Reactor Number 3, from 1983, and Reactor Number 4, from 1985, are both operational. * Construction of Kursk-2, essentially new reactors of the VVER-TOI type, was begun in 2018. The two reactors ...
Schematic diagram showing the difference between the Pool and Loop designs of a liquid metal fast breeder reactor. The two main design approaches to sodium-cooled reactors are pool type and loop type. In the pool type, the primary coolant is contained in the main reactor vessel, which therefore includes the reactor core and a heat exchanger.
