So that's 0.5% of rated thermal power of the reactor.

@es no I had not seen that, pretty cool. I expected more garbage in the SFP. Also not seeing any of the reactor parts that were supposedly inside. Anyone have any idea where the blog owner got the video from?

@Jim - absolutely! But could that account for a rise in RPV temp from about 100C on 1st May to 314C on 8th?

@hudebnik I think so. What's half a per cent thermal of your favorite?

I saw quite a bit last night about the fire in #3. No official comment.

A report said 'outside' of 3. Don't know what could burn on the outside.

@Jim - well if it is dissipating 'only' 0.5% then that would be about 4MW to dissipate, a lot of heat in a restricted space if there is little or no coolant.

@Angie thanks, at least we know they did open the doors

@radioguy about 10pm CST right after the discussion on Jim's server ended. It was to the left of 1, looked like it was pumping out smoke or steam

@Nancy The temp is meantto be 314c

@Nancy idk, think I'll go see if I can locate any news today. I saw tippy is smouldering...I started a ticker on my web site for cams, if anybody has a fav link, you can go type it in. the usual/tippy.html

Univ. of Wisconsin has not had their feed for google earth up in two days?

The Fukushima Daiichi nuclear power plant accident. In Unit 3 has raised the temperature of the reactor, and that does not contain enough water for the damage to the cooling pipe, a portion of the fuel burn-through, the heat came from there, perhaps because a found in an interview that government officials are.

The temperature of the Unit 3 reactor pressure vessel 08 at 5:00 am and 151.9 degrees upward trend becoming restless, but has increased compared to nearly 40 degrees a week ago.

According to officials, the cause of the temperature rise is not in good enough for the water damaged some water pipes are sent to the reactor, and even some fuel rods melted fall down, it is considered likely that the heat emitting.

Toukyoudenryoku for injection into the reactor, even this weekend, will switch to another pipe plumbing system currently being used.

Meanwhile, now that the Unit 1 reactor building doors open at 8:00 pm on September 8. At this time, but will be released from the small amount of radioactive material, "exhaust blower" that level is down by NISA impact on the surrounding environment is "no obstacle" judges for permission.

The door opened, people have become to be able to work inside the reactor building, Unit 1 will be able to progress toward a stable cooling. (08 16:56) --Google translate from news.tbs.co.jp

@dean hi! what's up? Besides reactor core temp?

@dean I don't know how most people can afford to get to work! I filled my car up yesterday and got half a tank.

@Nancy Oh, I guess I followed a translated link. sorry

@Nancy TBS original @ news.tbs.co.jp

@dean Be my luck it would be in granite and I die from radon due to lack of ventilation.

@Jim Thanks! that is about the only useful news from the media this weekend..
