I quote from the Plot section, "to delay restarting the reactor until the main water pump can be disassembled and inspected." That is incorrect. There is no such thing as a "main water pump" in a nuclear power plant. You either have a main feedwater pump (MFP) or a reactor coolant pump (RCP) (I'm talking about [[Pressurized water reactors|PWR]]s). A MFP is part of the secondary side located in the turbine building and takes suction off the main condenser and pumps water into the steam generators (secondary loop). A RCP is used to provide forced cooling to the reactor core by circulating reactor coolant water through the reactor vessel and steam generators (primary loop). In the movie, he was investigating the RCP as he was inside containment. I will leave this discussion up for a while to give others time to comment, then I will edit the article.

Fair use rationale for Image:China syndrome.jpg

Image:China syndrome.jpg is being used on this article. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is no explanation or rationale as to why its use in this Wikipedia article constitutes fair use. In addition to the boilerplate fair use template, you must also write out on the image description page a specific explanation or rationale for why using this image in each article is consistent with fair use.

Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale. Using one of the templates at Wikipedia:Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to ensure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template. Do not simply insert a blank template on an image page.

If there is other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on the other images used on this page. Note that any fair use images lacking such an explanation can be deleted one week after being tagged, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you.

security people

"implication that the company's security people" - should be clarified - the movie implicates the construction company's security, not the power company's security. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Feldercarb (talkcontribs) 15:08, 25 October 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Not "main water pump"

I quote from the Plot section, "to delay restarting the reactor until the main water pump can be disassembled and inspected." That is incorrect. There is no such thing as a "main water pump" in a nuclear power plant. You either have a main feedwater pump (MFP) or a reactor coolant pump (RCP) (I'm talking about PWRs). A MFP is part of the secondary side located in the turbine building and takes suction off the main condenser and pumps water into the steam generators (secondary loop). A RCP is used to provide forced cooling to the reactor core by circulating reactor coolant water through the reactor vessel and steam generators (primary loop). In the movie, he was investigating the RCP as he was inside containment. I will leave this discussion up for a while to give others time to comment, then I will edit the article.
