Depends on the temperature of the thing you want to cool down.

If it's warmer than the steam, then steam will cool it to the temperature of the steam. If it's already cooler than the steam, then steam can't cool it.

Does steam from nuclear cooling towers have radioactive elements?

The steam that comes out of nuclear cooling towers is not radioactive. It is produced from the water that is used to cool the reactor, and any radioactive materials would remain inside the reactor containment building and not be released into the environment.

What is flow diagram of steam condenser?

A flow diagram of a steam condenser typically illustrates the process of condensing steam into water for reuse in a steam cycle. The diagram shows steam entering the condenser, where it comes into contact with cooling water, leading to heat exchange that cools the steam. As the steam condenses, it transforms into liquid water, which is then collected and often pumped back into the boiler. The cooling water, having absorbed the heat, is usually expelled or recycled back to a cooling system.

Do you call the process of heating water into steam then cooling it to puirfy it?

The process of heating water into steam and then cooling it to purify it is called distillation. During distillation, water is heated until it turns into steam, leaving impurities behind. The steam is then cooled and condensed back into purified water.


What part of a nuclear reactor uses steam to turn the generator turbine generator condenser cooling loop?

The steam generated in a nuclear reactor is used to turn a turbine, which in turn drives a generator to produce electricity. After passing through the turbine, the steam is condensed back into water in the condenser before being pumped back to the reactor as part of the cooling loop.


What are three advantages to using water for an alternative fuel?

Water is not a fuel as H2O is essentially the ash of a combustion process. Water may be used as a heat transfer medium (steam or cooling) or a physical energy source (hydraulic turbines) but not as a fuel.


What is the steam in a power plant used for?
