@Bruce , You overlook the main point of my post Brucy ?
Which was the POTENTIAL of this venture!!
You also did not read the post properly, you seem to have missed the word
INITIALLY ?
You also did not stay on topic?
What more can l say ?
Donkeyman!
Thank you @butterscotch for interpreting the post, I hate it when members post using initials instead of names and no link whatever to the subject.
Yes Donks, I too have been following RR and their small modular reactor way of generating our leccie. Each reactor being capable of serving 1M homes sure is inviting, but being right now each need a good and abundant supply of cooling water, only coastal site locations would be considered at this moment in time. Iām sure that once the water cooling problem has been solved, inland sites will be considered too. Iām certainly not a reactor engineer, but if that waste heat can be converted into leccie, then vast amounts of water will not be required
@LongDriver , Yes, a good point LD, But l think that will only come into the
equation when we start exporting the reactors to landlocked countries ??
In UKās case it will not matter due to the small size of this island ??
I wonder how the nuclear submarines deal with this ? I believe they have
a completely self contained cooling system which recycles the cooling
water, due to not leaving a warm water footprint behind them ??
BTW, there was a nuclear power station on lake Trawsfynned in Wales
in the 1950ās ! I donāt know if itās still there ??

Yeah, loop heat exchangers going by the nickname ādrain-coolersā. Itās supposed to be top secret, but itās the worst secret Iāve come across
I saw this article yesterday which is also very good newsā¦
I looked up public support for nuclear energy in the UK because the US doesnāt support nuclear energy as a whole.
The UKās support of nuclear energy has risen a lot, especially during 2021.
What is your queryā¦
Just showing a link about new jobsā¦???back atcha
@DianneWoollie , My mistake my dear, l should not have used acronyms
for the thread title, l have allready been chastised by Mags
Donkeyman!
Be a Big Mistake to call a female My Dear @Donkeygobā¦just so you knowā¦Old Chapā¦
Sticks and Stonesā¦My name is Dianne.
and I donāt mine Diā¦to my friends that isā¦
ohhh @ Donkeygob!
Yes that is correctā¦I have my own agenda regarding rulesā¦
ohhh @Donkeygobber!..fools to followā¦
Thanks for that, having no links or reference makes it very difficult to decipher. As I say i looked up SMR and it referred to Steam Methane Refining which didnāt make any sense.
Perhaps if the topic had been made clear then staying on topic would have been possible Assman. What do you think?
@Bruce , Yes, l have allready apologised for that Brucy !!
But you do seem to rely on Google too much imo !
Even l know what SMR stands for, and , RR has been used to designate Rolls Royce for as !omg as l can remember !! And as you probably know l avoid using
Google as much as possible ??
Donkeyman!
Yes, Assman I understood RR hence my reference to cars which you claim was off topic. As for your avoidance of Google that does explain your ill informed remarks on so many topics.
