What kind of thermal reactors is plasma found in?
Thermal plasma reactors
Is power reactor a thermal reactor?
All power reactors are thermal reactors except few ones that are fast nuclear reactors.
Are there more fast breeder or thermal nuclear reactors?
Most nuclear reactors are thermal-neutron reactors. A few fast breeder reactors have been built, but not many.
Does a breeder nuclear reactor use moderator?
Thermal Breeder Reactors use moderators but Fast Breeder Reactors don't use moderator.
What has the author I I Gold'denblat written?
I. I. Gold'denblat has written: 'Calculaton of thermal stresses in nuclear reactors'
How long will uranium suplies last?
Probably 100 years with thermal reactors , but a correct answer is impossible today.
Is the general electric reactor safe?
Nuclear reactors themselves are usually safe, and they release no pollution into the air. The thing that makes the unsafe is the highly radioactive uranium rods and nuclear wastecreated by the reactors.
What has the author Gilbert Melese written?
Gilbert Melese has written: 'Thermal and flow design of helium-cooled reactors' -- subject(s): Design and construction, Gas cooled reactors, Helium
What are the negatives of uranium 238?
Uranium-238 has only one disadvantage: it is not a fissile material with thermal neutrons.But it is a fertile material good for some types of reactors or can be used in reactors with fast neutrons.
Why use plutonium in nuclear reactors?
Plutonium is used as nuclear fuel for nuclear reactors. Plutonium isotopes (239, 241) are fissionable with thermal neutrons releasing an extremely great quantity of energy.
Can uranium be used instead of electricity?
Uranium is used in nuclear power reactors to produce electricity or thermal energy.
How safe are the nuclear reactors?
nuclear reactors are not very safe at all. the nuclear energy buisness basically went to crap after the three mile island accident, because people decided the risks outweigh the benefits
