We see the wide use of pipe to carry steam and water in a power plant. Insulation is applied where necessary.
yes
By heating water
Heat from the nuclear reaction changes water to steam.
Heat from the nuclear reaction changes water to steam.
This simply means in a steam/water mixture the proportion of steam to the total mass of steam and water. This is relevant to BWR's which produce a steam/water mixture at the core outlet.
To provide steam to drive a steam turbine.
Dry Steam Power Plant : generates power directly from the steam from inside the earth.Flash Steam Power Plant : Flash steam plants use waters at temperatures greater than 360F. As this hot water flows up, it is collected in a flash tank where drop in pressure causes the liquid to boil into steam. The steam is then used to run turbines which in turn generate power. The condensed steam is returned to the reservoir.Binary Steam Power Plant : This type of plant uses high temperature geothermal water to heat another liquid which has a lower boiling point than water.

it is steam from water being used as a coolant for the plant.
In a nuclear power plant, the heat energy released from fission is used to change water into steam. the steam then turns the blades of a turbine to generate electricity.
the steam carries the nutrients to the leaf that produces the oxygen we need
