Why? For the same reasonour reactors do not have containmentbuildings around them, like those in the West. For the same reasonwe don't use properly enriched fuelin our cores. For the same reasonwe are the only nation that builds water-cooled,graphite-moderated reactors with a positivevoid coefficient. It's cheaper

Why
00:00:04.197 --> 00:00:06.594
For the same reason our reactors
00:00:06.674 --> 00:00:09.631
do not have containment buildings around them
00:00:09.711 --> 00:00:10.071
like those in the West
00:00:10.079 --> 00:00:13.028
For the same reason we don't use
00:00:13.108 --> 00:00:15.546
properly enriched fuel in our cores
00:00:15.625 --> 00:00:17.824
For the same reason we are the only nation
00:00:17.903 --> 00:00:22.001
that builds water cooled graphite moderated reactors
00:00:22.099 --> 00:00:25.096
with a positive void coefficient
00:00:26.415 --> 00:00:27.454
It's cheaper
