How does uranium turn the turbine in a power station?

Radioactivity produces a certain amount of heat, and uranium has the interesting property that you can increase its rate of radioactive decay by creating a certain density of specific isotopes (decaying uranium atoms emit neutrons which can be absorbed by other uranium atoms making them unstable, so that they too will decay). Therefore, uranium can be used as a source of heat - much like burning coal - and that heat can be used to boil water and run a steam turbine.

What type pf heat does uranium emit?

Uranium don't emit directly heat; under nuclear fission the kinetic energy released and the energy of radiations is converted to heat and after to electricity.


Does uranium emit heat?

1. For the non-irradiated uranium the effect is unnoticed. 2. If you think to nuclear fission of uranium, this is another question.


How is uranium used as a resource?
