Like I said---I was around the PWR.

MANY thanks for the full explaination.

I remember the chemistry stuff and all the corrosion problems. I still remember the SG replacement project at Indian Point 2.

Even with all the extra tubing--give me less power and a PWR anytime. I like turbines--and being near them.

I wasn't a nuke myself--not even in submarines.
My background was conventional steamplants (civilian)

I always had a lot of fun going to the power stations (nuclear and fossil) with Dad (trained in PWR's---I'm am from a family of nukes.) A few cousins were involved in the construction of Shoreham (BWR!)---then it's dismantlement. Always thought that was a disgrace.


anyway---thanks again!
