I'm extremely happy to see so many people who watch T. Folse also watch Anton! :D

Anton Petrov mentioned!

Anton Petrov in Tyler's video?
What a wonderful day (or night in my case)!

This is like watching Deadpool vs Wolverine

“We actually play via Steam inside our nuclear reactors when we’re too bored. Sometimes we have huge LAN parties.”

"...generates heat to spin around your roundy thing."   This is exactly the "layman's terms" I need, and that's why I'm here.

I own a business focused on boilers and I can  tell you with extreme certainty that steam boilers are not going anywhere anytime soon. Hospitals use steam to sanitize everything, manufacturing uses steam for both the heat and pressure it can produce. The infrastructure around steam generation is vast and steam is a well understood medium that has incredible advantages over all other kinds of materials or sources.

both my favorite science youtubers in one vid? in this economy?

Anton's vids are very good. He doesn't over hype things.

"Nuclear power is already much safer than most people think". Yes, yes, and yes!

Love seeing you react to Anton Petrov! I hope you do more of his videos! Love the content ❤

Holla to the Anton crew! 😁👍

That was a very based and factual analysis. I agree that it's a long way between using a Supercritical CO2 system, for something like waste heat recovery at a steel plant with "conventional" heat sources, where any unanticipated problems and failures would have minimal impact by comparison - to doing the research and testing necessary, to arrive at a certifiable and licensable commercial reactor design, using said system on the secondary side of the house for power generation.

Bless Anton for fighting the good fight against the Avi Loeb crowd

A gas pipeline company is doing something interesting with those supercritical turbines where they take the waste heat from the compressor station and use that to run the supercritical CO2 turbine.  One advantage with these is they are very efficient and small so they can be put in areas where a regular steam turbine just wouldnt work.

My old favourite channel being reviewed by my new favourite channel  . Doesn't get better than this .

6:46 Don't forget the liquid lead and lead-bismuth eutectics that some Russian reactors use in the primary loop as the working fluid.

Tyler, I’m so happy you already saw Antons video and made your own, I saw the video and facepalmed that I hadn’t thought of it before.. I even asked the stationary engineers on Facebook what they thought because I wanted to hear educated opinions on it. Thanks man!

Oooooo! Anton Petrov! TOP TIER!

I am a fan of T. Folse and Anton, though I feel the need to triple verify anything either channel says. It's funny seeing them in one video together.
