Corium after a small earthquake is concentrated because the earthquake machine worked as well as for compacting concrete machine … For this reason, a higher density worsened the reactor cooling water flow.

Understandable WHEN the earth SHAKES it makes the MASS of radioactive BLOBS Jiggle like Jello and give off more heat

So disturbing corium increases the hissing, spiting, fissing of the corium mass. We might as well face the fact that TEP.gov well not be able to dig these three hot blobs out of the mudrock for hundreds of years. That would disturb the coriums too much. No, these coriums will have to stay right where they are.
THE FUKU PLAN: We need to lessen the onging contamination of the Pacific Ocean as ground water flows past the 3 coriums and on into the Pacific Ocean. Surround existing Harbor with cofferdam to wall it off from the Pacific Ocean. Harbor becomes Heat Sink for 3 Rogue Nuclear Reactors located in the mudrock under Units1,2,&3. Second Cofferdam, uphill from Units1,2,&3, diverts ground water past the 3 Rogue Nuclear Reactors, and into Ocean. Injection wells, uphill from Units1,2,&3 inside cofferdam, pump Harbor water into mudrock to cool 3 Rogue Nuclear Reactors. Water flows over, under, and around 3 Rogue Nuclear Reactors, keeping them cool and stable. Water flows back into Harbor to cool. Power pumps with wind, solar, or tidal power, so site can function even without human operators or maintenance.
In several hundred years, TEP.gov will build a "dry storage" container around the cooled coriums where they sit. Nukes are much too dangerous and expensive to be allowed to operate. End nuclear power now. No nukes. Peace.

Since the time technology has gone a little Czenobyl forward when it comes to nuclear disaster rescue…
In order to provide the reactors in Fukushime from the bottom you have the mechanical tunnel.
Then insert the two meters in diameter with 20 tubes. , Do the holes from the top and side, and on the bottom line fire resistant ZrO2. For large pipes enter the small tube to remove radioactive leaks or cooling corium had reached there…

Certainly not the cheapest, but it will give guarantees that the radioactive materials do not enter the land and ocean

Herrenknecht can open a new service – save against the effects of radioactive discharges from power plants…

The problem that this solves does not exist, Feliks. At least to nuclear plant engineers. The designers and operators don't have resources to spend on problems they don't think will ever exist.
There are *no* design provisions for a core at power going ex-containment. Its not a design basis assumption for any plant that I've ever heard of. Spent pool fuel meltdowns are likewise NOT considered as a basis in any designs. Either situation is justified (by engineers, NRC, IAEA, Wal*Mart, etc.) as beyond probability. Their design is suppose to prevent either one from happening, and that's as far as they go.
What if they're wrong in their design assumptions, like now?
THAT is the biggest problem – they DON'T think they were wrong. Chernobyl? Operator error – can't design to prevent that 100%. Fukushima? Giant Earthquake on Inactive Fault + Record Tsunami + SBO + triple-meltdown combination is so improbable that they could never anticipate that in their design.
All the other nuke plants in Japan (and the U.S.) were designed with little margin for flawed assumptions. There is a one-in-a-million chance of failure per reactor-year PROVIDED the assumptions of earthquake magnitude, plant conditions, staffing levels and God-knows-what-else else are correct.
What's really changed in plant design as a result of Fukushima?
A couple of rows of sandbags added to levees. That's it.

Feliks: This will work, provided the drilling and pipe laying doesn't disturb the coriums as they pass underneath. Come in from the Harbor side. Provided the coriums are now stable, and won't travel down the pipes into the Harbor.

Yes, of course, this is a very difficult issue .. For this work has to take many specialists .. But you can see a little light in the tunnel…

And if it is completely successful, then even the next steps to control this disaster would be much more effective and easy …

This one has me scratching my head. All three elevated temps come from the bottom three entries, which say Supply Air. Not sure if it's a translation thing, but I'm having a hard time visualizing this one.

We need to shut them all down…. as many countries have done already.

I don't think the earthquakes were close enough to cause the temperature rise.
I believe the huge rainfall infiltrated subsoil areas 360 degrees around the coriums and produced fission reactions. Strange things happening underground…things for which the scientists have no precedents.

The limping horse always walks one step behind.
I mean to say, we humans can create, without knowing on forehand, what happens if the science behind the created is oblivious and uses mess-ups to learn from. What a poor excuse to mess up some more.

Agreed, JustmeAlso! I just posted thoughts on this on today's article http://enenews.com/officials-concern-about-stability-entire-dome-below-sinkhole-area-being-monitored-subsidence-will-venting-gas-further-collapse-video".
(Am thinking of the limping horse – poor horse! But if it's a stable, non-painful, condition, then that horse has great value and need not be replaced with a "more perfect model"! That wasn't you point – right? You meant the time-lag before "science" catches up to the larger questions it so frequently ignores.)
!!
I've watched this 'time lag' as a general phenomenon – first noticed it in education when I was teaching.

Maggie123,
I would go so far to call humanity the allegorical limping horse.

The temp has been high for over a week now.
That can't be good.

I'm sure typhoon Jelawat did not help matters and who knows what the corium is doing also the earthquakes don't help as I'm sure it cracks any crust that may have formed if we are even at that juncture. What a mess.

It's unsettling when temperatures rise (unexpectedly) at nuclear plants. We don't need more radiation.
