Setting up a nuclear power plant takes a lot of doing. To set up a nuclear power plant, you'll need some cash from investors. Buy some land with a condition that permits will be approved for building that plant there. You'll have to have a reliable water source, and also a place to tie to the heavy lines of the electrical distribution system. Do you have a place picked out?
Favorably clear your environmental impact report and the public opinion period. Have your plant designed and approved, then constructed and fueled. The federal oversight crew will watch you start up and test your plant. Then, with your operating permit in hand, just bring the plant on line and start generating power and collecting money, which you return to your investors.
During the Chernobyl nuclear power plant meltdown, temperatures reached up to 4000 degrees Celsius in the reactor core due to the uncontrolled nuclear chain reaction.
The present nuclear units in the US go up to 1100 MWe, larger ones are planned, up to 1600MWe. So coal plants are somewhat similar, but on one site you could have several units so making a larger total. Most nuclear sites have two units.
The type of transformer in a nuclear power plant is the same as that in a fossil plant. After all, we are still using electrical alternators, typically producing 24KV, which needs to be stepped up to grid level, typically 138Kv, depending on the particular grid.
The largest nuclear power plant in the world is the Kashiwazaki-Kariwa Nuclear Power Plant, with an electrical generating capacity of 8212 MW. There is probably no theoretical maximum, since the number of reactors is rather arbitrary. I have provided a link to the Wikipedia article below.
A nuclear power plant is a plant [not a plant that you see in gardens or forests..] that holds mounds of electricity and power. If it ever leaks or explodes, gases can reach up from Conneticut to approximatley, Maine [as an example]. If people inhale gases from an exlosion or leak from power plants, it may cause cancer, possibly death [depending on how bad the power plant was exposed].
1 plant takes 30million dollares
yes...
1986
One of the Japanese nuclear Power plant was unstable so a chemical mixed in it and boom! The whole thing blew up!!
Get some massive wireless energy transfer devise and set one up on the moon and one in japan. Transfer power from a massive nuclear power plant on the moon to Japan and hook everyone up to it.
Up to 1500MWe per reactor

Obninsk, Russia on June 27, 1954.
There are a lot of specialized departments in a nuclear power plant set up from actual engineers and scientists who study and do the research ,the people who assist with computers,the people who actually help in maintenance of the plant ,there are data collectors also hr people
An oil fired thermal power plant is one which heats up oil so as to supply the heat needed to heat water and produce steam. They differ from nuclear power plants which rely on nuclear fusion.
It was Chernobyl. For more information, look it up in Wikipedia.
