chernobyl was unique as it was a positive void co-efficient reactor , of which only russia made them , and they are dismantleing them as quick as they can tbh

Lol, yeah. A discussion had by many a nukes...what sense does "moar reactivity=moar power" Its nice to have for a quick start up I guess, but for land based 100% reactors who cares? i think it must have been a carryover from thier sub nuke plants where power transients were more common. Good thing we developed the PWR and figured out a great way to handle transients without relying on reactivy coefficient, but rather another more controllable factor
