Is the sun a nuclear fusion reactor?
Yes, the sun is a nuclear fusion reactor.
What are the necessary components for a nuclear reactor?
for pressurized light water reactor type, as an example, the nuclear reactor components are * Reactor vessel (that contains the nuclear fuel and surrounded with water and contains control rod for power control and for safety) * reactor coolant pump * steam generator * reactor pressurizer * piping out of the vessel to the pressurizer, from pressurizer to steam generator, from steam generator to reactor coolant pump, and from pump back to the reactor vessel.
What starts the nuclear chain reaction in a nuclear reactor?
The nuclear chain reaction in a nuclear reactor is started by the splitting of uranium atoms, a process known as nuclear fission.
What is the purpose of the reactor vessel?
The reactor vessel is the main container that houses the nuclear fuel, control rods, and coolant in a nuclear reactor. Its purpose is to contain and shield the nuclear reactions happening inside, and to provide structural support and safety for the reactor core.
What is the part of a nuclear reactor called where the nuclear reaction takes place?
The part of a nuclear reactor where the nuclear reaction takes place is called the reactor core. It typically contains the fuel rods, control rods, and coolant necessary for sustaining and controlling the nuclear reaction.
What is the Japanese Nuclear Reactor?
A Nuclear Reactor.
What is nuclear reactor kinetics?
Nuclear reactor kinetics is the branch of reactor engineering and reactor physics and control that deals with long term time changes in reactor fuel and nuclear reactors.
Why is the nuclear reactor surrounded by a thick concrete layer?
To stop radiation leaking out. Alpha and Beta types of radiation will be stopped by the concrete
Does South Africa has a nuclear reactor?
yes, south Africa has a nuclear reactor.
Is the sun a nuclear fusion reactor?
Yes, the sun is a nuclear fusion reactor.
What is the difference between nuclear reactor and nuclearpower plant?
a nuclear reactor converts binding energy into heat. a nuclear power plant uses a nuclear reactor to generate electricity.
What is the function of a nuclear reactor of a nuclear plant?
simply, the nuclear reactor is the source of heat (or steam) for the nuclear power plant.
Do Breeder reactor and nuclear reactor have similarities?
A breeder reactor is one type of nuclear reactor, but not a type that is in general commercial use at the present time
Block diagram of a nuclear power station?
The heart of a nuclear power plant is the nuclear reactor.
When and where was last nuclear reactor built?
