如果内核不能得到充分冷却,恐其随后将完全熔毁,从而使能源棒暴露在空气中导致辐射进一步扩散。
If the cores cannot be cooled sufficiently, a total meltdown could ensue, exposing the fuel rods to the outside air and further spreading radiation.
核电站工人正在尝试将所有燃料棒浸入水中,这样可以冷却燃料棒(阻止发生起火爆炸),阻断辐射。
Workers at the plant are trying to keep all fuel rods under water, which cools the rods (thereby preventing fires and explosions) and blocks radiation.
专家警告,如果池水蒸干,燃料棒暴露在外将会熔化或者着火,这样会产生致死的辐射强度。
They warned that if the tanks run dry and leave the fuel rods exposed, the rods could melt or catch fire, creating potentially lethal levels of radiation.
