What is the name of the fuel used in the nuclear reactor?
Uranium
What is the radioactive metal used in nuclear reactor?
Uranium is the most common.
How much uranium 235 is used in a nuclear reactor?
Depending on the type and the power of the nuclear reactor. An example; a CANDU type reactor of 700 MW need 700 kg uranium-235 and only ca. 500 kg are "burned".
What materials can be used as fuels for a nuclear reactor?
Uranium and most transuranic elements. Plutonium and Americium are particularly good reactor fuels.
Does uranium need to be enriched in order to be used in a nuclear reactor?
Some nuclear power reactors work with low enriched uranium; CANDU reactors work with natural uranium.
In what production is a reactor and uranium used in?
A nuclear reactor is a plant which deliver electricity and (or) heat.The function principle is the release of energy from nuclear fission of fissile materials as the isotope uranium-235.
What are reactor and uranium are used in the production of?
A nuclear reactor is a facility which produce electricity and heat from the fission of uranium or plutonium.The energy released by fission of uranium-235 (or other isotopes) is immense compared to the energy content of fossil fuels.
What is uranium used for in a nuclear reactor?
fuel
Why was Oak Ridge Tennessee important to the production of the Atomic Bombs used in World War two?
Uranium enrichment plantsPrototype plutonium production reactor & design of plutonium production reactors used in Hanford, WA
What is the name of the fuel used in the nuclear reactor?
Uranium
Canning materials used in nuclear reactor?
uranium
How does the uranium used in a CANDU reactor exist in nature?
CANDU burns natural unenriched uranium.
Why do you use uranium and plutonium in the reactor?
Uranium and plutonium can be used as nuclear fuels for nuclear reactors.
Fusion reactor fuel used in future?
uranium-235 your welcome :)
What is the radioactive metal used in nuclear reactor?
Uranium is the most common.
Is nuclear an atomic fuel?
Fuel used in a nuclear reactor is uranium, the active isotope is uranium 235 which is fissile.
Which uranium is used for nuclear power production?
U-235 is the fissionable isotope that produces the power. Reactor fuel usually contains about 5% of this, the rest being U-238
