move the bonb one plate to the right for improved realism

are they on a partial meldown again and caused TG1-4 to burn
-
also uhh why is U1 and U2 smoking??????

If explosion 2 existed and was a steam one its a mixed gas explosion (steam majority) as there is Zirconium cladding and Superheated steam right it does a chemical reaction of Zr + 2H2O = [insert other chemical reactions due to external materials] = ZrO2 + 2H2
-
yeah the hydrogen theory was debunged already by "that Chernobyl guy". Now there is a theory that the second explosion was from DRK backflow valved opening after the first explosion flooding a ton of water into the core which caused a second steam explosion or another theory says that there never were a second explosion.
-
thats the most popular theory, atleast. Some people say the reaction between the superheated graphite and the steam wouldnt have produced enough hydrogen, but we just dont really know exactly.
-
there were actually two explosions, first a steam explosion which shot the steel lid into the air, and then a hydrogen explosion as a result from superheated steam reacting with also superheated graphite, and lastly oxygen rushing into the core after the lid was ejected.
-
only the roof catched fire after hot stuff from the core landed on it and made it burn
-
some things to say: First the chimneys don't smoke, because they are just for ventilation and second the explosion was a pure steam explosion so no fire involved.

bro its just a prank the prank:CHERNOBYL
