What material is used as heat conductor in nuclear power plant?
It depends. Pressurised water is used in pressurized water reactors (PWR), but molten salt (maybe fluoride?) reactors are said to be better.
What has the author Antonio Cammi written?
Antonio Cammi has written: 'Multi-physics approach to the modelling and analysis of molten salt reactors' -- subject(s): Molten salt reactors, Simulation methods
What is a Thorium Molten Salt Reactor?
The molten salts reactor was an experimental nuclear reactor during 1965-1969. But this reactor hadn't thorium inside.
What are some methods for cooling nuclear reactors both in the UK and abroad?
Most reactors are cooled by water. Some are cooled by liquid metal, like sodium. Some are cooled by gas. Some are cooled by molten salt. There are different reasons for designing and building a reactor that is cooled by each of the methods cited, and additional reading will have to be done by the investigator to discover why. A link is provided to get you started.
Is salt viscous?
Molten salt is viscous.
Is salt a nonelectolyte?
Solid salt is a non-electrolyte; salt solution or molten salt are electrolytes.
Why are most nuclear reactors near water?
Nuclear plants use water as both working fluid and coolant. The reactor itself is cooled by cold water (rarely salt or gas), and functions as a heater, creating steam, which works turbines, which, in turn, generate electricity.
Is nuclear energy renewable?
No, it is not renewable
What are types of atomic energy?
Nuclear energy is a type of atomic energy. [1]Nuclear energy can be created by atomic Fission (like in out nuclear power plants), or atomic Fusion (like in the Sun).
Is salt itself a conductor of electricity?
In molten form a salt itself is a conductor of electricity.
Lead prepared by molten salt electrolysis?
...what exactly is the question here? If you remove the mandatory question mark, it turns into a statement. Please be more clear as to what you are asking use to find or do in the future.
Is salt a conductor?
Sodium chloride is an electrical conductor only in solution or when is melted.
