The blocks you saw bouncing in the show were technological channel caps, also known as Assembly 11 blocks, and they only weigh approximately 50kg each, depending on type of channel underneath. The show got that part wrong, claiming they weigh >200kg, that's incorrect and a very persistent myth that originated from a book. Neither the fuel rods nor the control rods were jumping, they were all hidden in pipes several meters below the blocks that you saw in the show. Pressure was escaping from the valves at the top of technological channels, lifting up the caps above. Still a tremendous amount of steam.
To cause Chernobyl: The Sequel you will need to put the reactor at half power for a long time then put the controls on auto pilot which will stall a xenon poisoned reactor made from being at half power for too long. You then restart the xenon poisoned reactor and remove most if not all of the control rods. The last thing you do is... You guessed it AZ-5
Ehhhm no, standard RR-rods arw still graphite "tipped", these little "tips" are actually a few meters long, as this is actually a key to the reactor operation. What has changed is the design of the spacer between boron and graphite displacer on both RR (РР) and AZ (AЗ) rods, as well as their layout.

I know how to run a reactor. You dont do anything and let the ones who do do their work. But there is usually a big red scram button that makes scary alarms go away if you somehow are the only one around (god how?) unless if its a rmbk 1000.. really all reactors are unique and has their own parameters, but really it all comes down to putting down or pulling up the correct amount of control rods, if you insert all reaction stops, if you pull out all.. never do that for any longer time. Typically around 40% of them are down.
Me to man I really want to go but I don’t have time it would be sad if they got rid of the simulation and the control room during decommissioning I at least hope they keep the 350kg caps like they did in the rest of the Chernobyl units
Could mean that this control rod cannot move any more because of destroyed fuel channel because of meltdown. Or at least I think they caused meltdown in this simulation.
@@meisnice2448 If the control rod couldn't move anymore IE a control rod jam, it would simply just stop moving, it wouldn't be flailing around, even in Chernobyl where there was immense pressure and the rods jammed, they weren't going crazy, they were just stuck in place. So I personally don't think that would cause the selsyn to start going and spinning weirdly.
They are still graphite tipped as it it is necessary for the fuel enrichment (before accident 2% 235U or according to some sources even natural Uranium at 0.7% 235U, now 2.4% 235U) and design of the core. Without the graphite, the assembly can't reach criticality at such enrichment because the moderation from the water is too low. Instead they changed it so that at full withdrawal of tipped control rods, there is no pocket of water (which has a way lower moderating ratio MR of 71 compared to the MR of carbon at 192) at the bottom, meaning that when a fully withdrawn rod is inserted, it won't add positive reactivity in the lower parts of the reactor due to an increase in MR when water is replaced by graphite.
Imagine the tourguide taking the guests to the wrong room. Excited child: I wanna do a meltdown! Can we do a meltdown? Can we? Can we? Guide: Oh well, why not.
This is what this simulator is used for: emergency training. A lot of possible malfunction scenarios were programmed in there, to train the operators to respond to them properly. Clearly, major malfunctions are typically accompanied by all kinds of alarm sounds, flashing lights, and fading of the main lights.
This was filmed in the control room's simulator, which is in a different location from the plant. The info centre of the IAE itself is still open for tourists though. But the tours to the controlled zone of IAE (reactor Hall, control room, turbine room etc) are now paused until the new years.
