Most current nuclear power plants just use ordinary wateras coolant.
However experimental reactors have been built using:
- Mercury
- NaK - Sodium Potassium alloy
- Lead
- Solder - Tin Lead alloy
- Oil (which also acts as moderator to slow neutrons)
- etc.
NaK was the most common in fast breeder power reactors.
What else can I help you with?
What is the metal that nuclear power stations use?
Uranium
What is the metal called which is used in nuclear power stations?
uranium
What is the radioactive metal used in power stations?
Uranium, but in oxide form
What heavy metal is in nuclear power stations?
Uranium and transuranium heavy metals.
What metal is used in nuclear power stations as fuel?
Uranium, plutonium, or thorium.
Which heavy metal is found in nuclear power stations?
Uranium is the heavy metal found in nuclear power stations. Uranium has the atomic number of 92, and it has many applications in nuclear technology. A very common isotope of uranium is uranium-238.
What is the metal pipe in front of the condenser on your 2002 Dodge Intrepid?
possibly a power steering cooler.
Why do power stations use water not a lowwer boiling point liquid?
Water is cheap and easily obtained.
The only metal that is liquid at ordinary temperatures?
it would have to be if u take the power of the next power
What are the three main power stations?
The three main types of power stations are thermal power stations, hydroelectric power stations, and nuclear power stations. Thermal power stations generate electricity by burning fossil fuels, while hydroelectric power stations harness the energy of flowing water. Nuclear power stations utilize nuclear fission to produce heat, which is then converted into electricity. Each type has its own advantages and environmental considerations.
What liquid do power stations burn?
Power stations typically burn fossil fuels such as coal, natural gas, or oil to generate electricity. The burning of these fuels produces heat, which is used to produce steam that drives turbines connected to generators to produce electricity.
Where does the earth's magnetic field get its power from?
earths magnetic field is generated by the circulation of liquid metal.
