How is the energy of a nuclear reactor converted to electricity?

the nuclear reactor makes steam wich drives turbines wich drive generators that make the electricity


What must happen for a nuclear to make electricity?

a chain reaction


How do you make electricity from a nuclear reaction?

It is an almost insanely simple process. Water is heated by the nuclear reactor to the point it boils and this steam is used to drive a turbine which is connected to a generator. This generator creates the electricity we use.


What has to happen to nuclear before it cam be used to generate electricity?

The nuclear reaction produces heat The heat is used to make steam The steam makes the turbines spin The turbines make electricity


Is nuclear power linked to the atomic bomb?

Only in that to make plutonium or tritium for nuclear bombs you need a reactor. While the reactors that make these materials can also be used to generate electricity, they usually don't. Also the types of reactors usually used to generate electricity are not usually designed to efficiently make these materials.


Is nuclear burned?

Nuclear energy as obtained in nuclear reactor power plants comes from the fission or splitting of the nuclei of uranium and plutonium. It is not a chemical burning process and does not need any other elements to make it happen.


How do you use radioactive material?

If you are a smart guy, you can make a nuclear bomb, or a nuclear reactor...


How do you make an atom into a different element?

This will happen naturally if the element is radioactive and can be done artificially by means of neutron bombardment in a nuclear reactor or in the heart of a star.


What does the steam turbines do in a nuclear reactor?

Primarily, the steam turbines spin the generators, which make electricity. That is the primary objective of a nuclear power plant, to make electricity. There are other steam turbines in a nuclear power plant which are used for various functions, such as High Pressure Coolant Injection and Low Pressure Coolant Injection, which are used during various shutdown and emergency scenarios.


Can you make a real ark reactor?

An Ark reactor as currently describe in comic is very much like a Nuclear Fuel Cell. Possibly convert energy from Nuclear reaction to power. Possibly a plasma nuclear fusion reactor. I believe in the future it could be made. See the link and compare the similarity of fusion reactor and Ark reactor.


What is nucular reactor?

A nucular reactor is the engine that the penguins in Madagascar use to make a quick getaway. It uses nucular fuel, and Marty mistakes it for a nuclear reactor.


How does the nuclear reactor turn in to electric?

Usually the same way coal, oil, and natural gas fired power plants make electricity: boiling water to make steam, which turns turbines, which turns the generators.
