The part of a nuclear reactor in which the fuel is located is called the?

The part of a nuclear reactor in which the fuel is located is called the core. This is where the nuclear fission reactions take place, producing heat that is used to generate electricity.


In what part of a nuclear reactor is the fuel is located?

The fuel in a nuclear reactor is located in the fuel rods, which are typically made of materials such as enriched uranium or plutonium. These fuel rods are where the nuclear fission reaction takes place, producing heat that is used to generate electricity.

Is kamini India's first atomic reactor?

From 'www.world-nuclear.org' I can find the following reactors which are in operation, but not one called 'Kamini'. The first on this list was TARAPUR in 1969 (BWR) Tarapur 1 and 2, Kaiga 1,2 and 3, Kakrapur 1 and 2, Kalpakkam 1 and 2, Narora 1 and 2, Rawatbhata 1,2,3 and 4, Tarapur 3 and 4. Apart from Tarapur 1 and 2, these are all PHWR type. Total capacity 3779 MWe. Perhaps Kamini was an experimental or small prototype reactor not in this list?


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.

Which nuclear reactor is proposed to be shut permanently from dhruva kamini cirus apsara reactors in India?

1. Dhruva reactor: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dhruva_reactor This reactor is a larger version of CIRUS and can produce up to 25 KG of plutonium per year. No statement has been made about shutting down this reactor, presumably India feels it is not obliged to because unlike CIRUS it was designed and built using Indian resources. 2. CIRUS reactor http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/CIRUS_reactor. The CIRUS design is based on Canada's Chalk River reactor and was built with Canadian help. India has announced that this reactor will be shutdown in 2010 in accordance with the terms of the recent US-India nuclear deal. CIRUS can produce up to 10 kg of plutonium in a year. 3. KAMINI reactor http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/KAMINI 4. APSARA reactor http://www.barc.ernet.in/webpages/about/mile.htm
