What else can I help you with?
How many houses could be powered with a nuclear reactor?
That depends on the power rating of the reactor.
How many watts electricity is produced by a nuclear reactor?
The electricity produced by a nuclear reactor can vary depending on its size and design, but a typical nuclear reactor can generate anywhere from 500 megawatts to 1,500 megawatts of electricity.
How many methods are there to give heat to the reactor?
If you mean a nuclear reactor, and not a chemical one, there is only one way, and that is by nuclear fission in the fuel
How many control rods are there in a nuclear reactor?
The number of control rods in a nuclear reactor can vary depending on the design and size of the reactor. Typically, a nuclear reactor can have anywhere from 50 to 100 control rods. These rods are used to control the rate of the nuclear reaction by absorbing neutrons and regulating the power output of the reactor.
How many years of experience do you need to become a nuclear reactor system engineer?
my cousin became a nuclear reactor engineer and he said it was about 12 years
What is the difference between a bioreactor and nuclear reactor?
A nuclear reactor uses either nuclear fission or nuclear fusion to generate electricity, while bio-reactors use the excretions of many animals to generate electricity.
How many gallons of fuel does a nuclear submarine hold?
A nuclear submarine has a reactor . There is no liquid fuel at all.
How many watts does a nuclear reactor put out?
The power output of a nuclear reactor can vary widely, depending on the design and size of the reactor. Commercial nuclear power reactors typically have power outputs ranging from 500 megawatts (MW) to over 1,500 MW.
How many pounds of uranium are in a nuclear reactor?
The quantity depends on: the type of the reactor, power of the reactor, enrichment of uraniu, chemical form of the fuel, etc. For a research reactor some kilograms, for a power reactor more than 100 tonnes/year.
Does nuclear reactors contain uranium-235?
It really depends on the nuclear reactor, but many are built to work specifically with that isotope.
What are advantages and disadvantages of nuclear and breeder reactors?
You can't compare and contrast nuclear reactors and breeder reactors, any more than you can compare a lion with a mammal. A lion is one example of many mammals; a breeder reactor is just one example of many types of nuclear reactor.
How many days does a breeder reactor require to produce plutonium-239 from uranium-238?
It is a continuous instantaneous process that happens in the nuclear breeder reactor.
