Nuclear pressurized water power plant SIEMENS/KWU 1/350 scale (from 1983)
... in 1983 (37 years back from now) I was in the lucky situation to receive an order to design a displayable cardmodel of the german pressurized water nuclear water power plant (electric power output 1300 megawatts). In those days SIEMENS/KWU scheduled to erect 9 of these principally standardized power plants - so they named this series »KONVOI« ... at least only three of them were finally finished and supply electric energy:
• ISAR 2 • Emsland • Neckarwestheim All three will be shut down in 2022 ... In late 1983 / early 1984 the cardmodel was printed by J.F.Schreiber (Esslingen) in three printruns : 5,000 (first printrun) / 120,000 / 20,000 in english .... The following pictures show three of the many official photos taken by Siemens in 1983: Last edited by Thomas Pleiner; 09-19-2020 at 03:27 PM. |

... the kit consists of 18 sheets 420 x 297 mm (or 36 sheets 297 x 210 mm) on 165 g/m² Rothmill cardstock. EVERY detail was hand-drawn with indian ink, ruler, triangle and compass. Hard to imagine in 2020 ... :-)

Not only because I designed the OLKILUOTO 3 nuclear power plant, the "KONVOI"-model sank into the depths of time ...
At the end of 2019 an exhibition foundation in Hamburg approached me and asked for a "Konvoi"-model for an exhibition ... so I took a remaining 1983 issue of the kit and started in Februar 2020 to cut and assemble what I've designed nearly four decades ago ... great fun and great pleasure ... The following pictures show the assembly FEB-SEP 2020: |
