somebody plz help!!!! anyone now how nuclear power plant works i need it real quick from a report?

Answer 1

*...A Nuclear Power plant uses the tremendous, controlled heat output produced by the fission of Uranium 235.
*...This heat energy is used to convert large quantities of water into High Temperature, Superheated (dry), High Pressure steam which is then piped to powerful, high speed, Steam Turbines where the Thermal and Pressure (Kinetic) Energy is converted into the Mechanical Energy of rotation of the Turbines.
*..The Turbines are connected by drive shafts that transfer the Mechanical Energy to Electrical Generators that produce Electricity by converting the Mechanical Energy into Electrical Energy which is then fed to the National Power Grid for distribution to all users of electricity.
*..The users then convert the Electrical energy into Heat and Light Energy, and more mechanical energy by driving motors used to operate other mechanical machines.

(The above is a very basic description of the processes involved. The full story demands a number of pages of information on the processes).

Answer 2

When you bring many rods of enriched nuclear fuel together they get very hot, unless shielded from each other.
You take a huge tub and throw the rods together in the tub they get very, very hot.

You pour on sodium metal over them to cool them.
you pump the hot sodium out to make room for more cold sodium.

You pass the hot sodium through water to cool the sodium.
The water gets hot and becomes steam.
You use this steam to turn a turbine just because it's fun.

You connect the turbine to a generator and make electric juice.

This electric juice doesn't taste very good when compared to coffee so you don't drink it you run light bulbs.
ZAP>> nuclear power plant.

Answer 3

nuclear power is produced by fussion or fission of radio active meterials.nuclear fuel like uranium or thorium is fed in to reactors with coolants and moderators.so due to nuclear reaction this reactor generates heat (steam)and this heat is converted in to mechanical energy in turbine and then to electrical energy with generator
