What else can I help you with?
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.
Is power reactor a thermal reactor?
Yes, a power reactor is a type of thermal reactor. Power reactors use nuclear fission to produce heat, which is then used to generate electricity. The heat generated in the reactor comes from the controlled chain reaction of nuclear fission, making it a thermal reactor.
What kind of thermal reactors is plasma found in?
Plasma is typically found in nuclear fusion reactors, which are a type of thermal reactor that produces energy by fusing atomic nuclei together at extremely high temperatures. Plasma is the fourth state of matter, consisting of ionized gas with high energy particles.
What has the author I I Gold'denblat written?
I. I. Gold'denblat has written: 'Calculaton of thermal stresses in nuclear reactors'
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.
How long will uranium suplies last?
Probably 100 years with thermal reactors , but a correct answer is impossible today.
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.
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
Can uranium be used instead of electricity?
Uranium is used in nuclear power reactors to produce electricity or thermal energy.
How efficient are thermal power stations?
Coal fired plants about 40 percent, nuclear reactors (PWR) about 33 percent
What is adabatic calorimetric?
The studies focused on uncontrolled and runaway reactions and designed to simulate the larger chemical reactors thermal behavior is called adiabatic calorimetry. It is used primarily for the study of thermal hazards.
