What part of the nuclear reactor is the fuel located in?
The nuclear fuel is found in the fuel rods. These fuel rods are formed into fuel bundles called fuel assemblies, and together they make up the reactor core.
What is a used fuel in nuclear power plants?
The used fuel in a nuclear power plant is the nuclear fuel being discharged from the nuclear reactor after being irradiated during reactor operation. It is usually composed of trans-uranium heavy elements, a wide variety of fission products (that resulted from the nuclear fission processes in the nuclear reactor) and products of radioactive decay (produced before and after fuel discharge from the nuclear reactor).
In what part of a nuclear reactor is the fuel is located?
Fuel in a nuclear reactor is located in the core of the reactor. It is there that the fuel, which is sealed (welded) inside plates or tubes, is situated in fuel bundles.
What is the name of the process in which a nuclear fuel produces heat?
Nuclear fission
If carbon were used as nuclear fuel it would be best?
Carbon cannot be used as a nuclear fuel, either for fission or fusion.
Why does the core of the reactor have a moderator?
The core of the reactor contains the nuclear fuel. Having a moderator in place within the core ensures that the nuclear fuel is processed at an accurate time duration. This can prevent serious problems from occurring within the entire nuclear reactor.
Does Canada have nuclear weapons?
Plutonium is always produced by using uranium fuel in a nuclear reactor, but it stays in the spent fuel unless this is processed. I don't think Canada has any processing capability for separating out the plutonium, but you need to ask the question to the Canadian authority
Is nuclear energy and nuclear fuel different?
Nuclear fuel is the fuel used to produce nuclear energy.
How is nuclear power processed?
Wih cookie
Is nuclear power a fossil fuel?
Nuclear power is NOT a fossil fuel.
What possible future nuclear fuel?
what possible future nuclear fuel
If uranium is not a foosil fuel then what is it?
Uranium is a radioactive element used to fuel nuclear reactors. It is a nuclear fuel.
What is Korea Nuclear Fuel's population?
The population of Korea Nuclear Fuel is 696.
When was Korea Nuclear Fuel created?
Korea Nuclear Fuel was created in 1982.
When was Nuclear Fuel Complex created?
Nuclear Fuel Complex was created in 1971.
What is Nuclear Fuel Complex's population?
Nuclear Fuel Complex's population is 3,600.
How is fossil fuel processed?
