Message Subject Professor of Nuclear Engineering at UCSB is advising possible "controllable collapse" of Fukushima SP4
Poster Handle Anonymous Coward
Post Content
There is no department of nuclear engineering at UCSB. He is a mechanical engineer who worked in nuclear engineering at another university and for the government.

If he were truly in the know, I seriously doubt he would be speaking about this.

Which is more likely:

He was lying in his presentation or was telling the truth?

What's his motive to lie? I don't see any.

I didn't mean to imply he is lying. I just don't think he has accurate information. And it is strange that his comments seem to have been made in 2011. A lot has changed since then. so even if he was dead on accurate in 2011, may not hold true today.

From what I have read, the fuel rods have been flooded with thousands of gallons of water per day just to try to keep them somewhat stable. I am not sure what he meant by collapsing the pool into the floor. Wasn't there already complete meltdown, potentially into the ground/water table?
