How does nuclear reactor works to produce electricity?
how electricity is produced in a nuclear reactor
Slows down neutrons in a nuclear reactor?
moderator
Where is the nuclear energy produced in a nuclear reactor?
In the core.
What is the function of graphite in a nuclear reactor?
It's purpose is to slow down fast neutrons that maybe present in the reactor.
What is a nuclear reactor?
An assembly of fissile fuel (U-235 or PU-239) arranged in a geometric array. The assembly can be made to go critical such that a chain reaction starts which builds up a neutron flux inside the assembly. The chain reaction is controlled at a steady level using neutron absorbing control rods.The nuclear reactor can classified under:a thermal nuclear reactor, where the majority of fissions are caused by slow neutrons. In these reactors, the fast neutrons produced by fissions are slowed down with a moderator which can be graphite, heavy water or light water, anda fast nuclear reactor where the majority of fissions are caused by fast neutrons

What is a Nuclear reactor moisture separator?
This is used in the nuclear reactor that is known as Boiling Water Reactor (BWR) in which heat produced by the nuclear fission in the nuclear fuel allows the light water reactor coolant to boil. Then, the nuclear reactor moisture separator is used to increase the dryness of the produced steam before it goes to the reactor steam turbines.
Are radioactive isotopes produced in a nuclear reactor?
They can be, depending on the reactor design.
What absorbs neutrons in a nuclear reactor and begins with C?
We see the use of control rods in a reactor to absorb neutrons. These rods are often made of boron.
What is the function of graphite in a nuclear reactor?
It's purpose is to slow down fast neutrons that maybe present in the reactor.
What is the rating of nuclear reactor in INS Arihant?
I think is energy produced by the reactor in a second...
Why is the moderator important in a nuclear reactor?
The moderator is used to slow down the neutrons present in the core of the reactor. Normally the neutrons produced as the nuclear fuel (e.g. uranium) is fissioned are travelling too fast to produce a sustained chain reaction. Some examples of moderators are cadmium, heavy water and graphite.
What is the purpose of boron in nuclear reactors?
Boron is used inside a nuclear reactor inside a control rod which is used to 'soak' up the neutrons inside the nuclear reactor, a control rod can be used to control the rate of fission inside a nuclear reactor.
How much heat is produced in a nuclear reaction and how hot is it?
In a nuclear bomb temperatures of 10 million centigrade or more are produced. In a nuclear reactor temperatures of 100 centigrade to about 1000 centigrade are produced depending on type and design of reactor.
