Documentary about the 1957 reactor fire in the Windscale plant in England, which released a large amount of radioactive material into the environment. ____________________ '87 Honda XBR 500, '96 Kawasaki ZX7R P1, '90 Honda CB-1, '88 Kawasaki GPz550, MZ 150 ETZ

I was amazed by the design of the Windscale plant reactor. I've never seen, nor heard of such design. Using cooling fans and just having the fuel laying in the reactor and then being pushed out once it's due to be replaced.
I know it was the 50's and they probably used the facility to somehow make weapons grade radioactive material, but even then they had to know, that blowing 1 ton of air per 1 second through a set of filters that even had big holes in them, as they wore down, wasn't a great idea. Couldn't they just use water for the cooling? Those fans probably burned a lot of electricity.
Without spoiling anything, their solution to the fire was the most peculiar. ____________________ '87 Honda XBR 500, '96 Kawasaki ZX7R P1, '90 Honda CB-1, '88 Kawasaki GPz550, MZ 150 ETZ
