The basic principles - focusing on energy conversions - are the following. (1) The nuclear reaction produces heat. (2) This heat is used to boil water; the steam pushes out (there is a lot of pressure). (3) The movement and force of the steam going out is used to move a generator, which produces the electrical energy.
Of course there are a lot of technical details, for example to make it more efficient and to make it safe, but these are the basic principles.
What else can I help you with?
How do you convert nuclear energy from nuclear reactor to electrical energy?
The heat produced it used to evaporate water which turns turbines on a generator.
How is nuclear energy changed into electrical energy in a nuclear power plant?
Steam from the heat of the reactor.
Can you make a real ark reactor?
An Ark reactor as currently describe in comic is very much like a Nuclear Fuel Cell. Possibly convert energy from Nuclear reaction to power. Possibly a plasma nuclear fusion reactor. I believe in the future it could be made. See the link and compare the similarity of fusion reactor and Ark reactor.
What is the function of an electrical reactor?
A nuclear reactor contains a nuclear reaction, provides support for the control mechanisms for the reaction, and provides for the transfer of heat to machinery that will use it to produce electric power.
What is the Japanese Nuclear Reactor?
A Nuclear Reactor.
What is nuclear reactor kinetics?
Nuclear reactor kinetics is the branch of reactor engineering and reactor physics and control that deals with long term time changes in reactor fuel and nuclear reactors.
How much energy can nuclear supply?
The latest PWR designs can produce 1600MW electrical from one reactor.
How much electrical energy in joules does a nuclear power reactor generate in one day?
The amount of electrical energy generated by a nuclear power reactor in one day can vary depending on its capacity and efficiency. However, a typical nuclear power reactor can generate around 1-2 billion joules of electrical energy per day.
What were some of the uses for the first nuclear reactor?
The very first nuclear reactor was Chicago Pile 1. It was built for research and scientific use. The first nuclear reactor outside of a university was built (at Hanford, Washington) primarily to yield plutonium for the atomic bomb destined for Nagasaki, Japan. Nuclear reactors were built primarily for electrical generation beginning in about 1951.
Why did Henry T Sampson create the gamma-electrical cell?
He wanted to generate power from the shielding of a nuclear reactor.
Does South Africa has a nuclear reactor?
yes, south Africa has a nuclear reactor.
Is the sun a nuclear fusion reactor?
Yes, the sun is a nuclear fusion reactor.
