Boiling Water Reactors, or BWRs, are the second most common nuclear reactors in the world today. A Boiling Water Reactor directly boils water within the reactor core to produce steam, used to drive turbines and generate electricity.
What goes on behind the fence at a nuclear power station? What are all those buildings for and how does it all work together?
Unfathomable amounts of heat. Ludicrous temperatures and pressures. Ridiculous quantities of water and steam. How exactly do you turn all that into electricity?
In the realm of nuclear energy, the unassuming containment building emerges as a crucial guardian.
Reactor design is evolving and improving; each generation seeks to address the limitations of the previous.
It’s in the name with these, they control the fission reaction inside the reactor…
In nuclear fission reactors, moderators are the key to retaining control of the reaction…
