the thermal output of the reactor should have beenno lowerthan 700 MW at the start of the experiment. If test conditions had been as planned, the procedure would almost certainly have been carried out safely; the eventual disaster resulted from attempts to boost the reactor output once the exp...
The Causes of the Disaster On April 25, 1986, reactor four at the Chernobyl Nuclear Power Plant was shut down for routine maintenance. Management decided to conduct tests while it was shut down. One such test was to see if the turbines could still cool the reactor's core if power were ...
