This document provides information about nuclear (atomic) power plants. It discusses the working principle of nuclear power plants, which generate electricity through nuclear fission rather than fossil fuel combustion. Nuclear fission occurs when the nucleus of an atom, such as uranium-235, splits into smaller parts. This splitting reaction releases energy and neutrons, which can trigger further splitting reactions in a self-sustaining nuclear chain reaction. The key components of a nuclear reactor that harness this chain reaction include the core, moderator, control rods, coolant, and radiation shielding. There are two main types of nuclear reactors - pressurized water reactors and boiling water reactors.

A nuclear power plant converts nuclear energy from atomic nuclei into heat and then into electricity through nuclear fission. There are two main types of nuclear reactors - boiling water reactors and pressurized water reactors. A boiling water reactor allows water to boil inside the reactor and produce steam to spin turbines, while a pressurized water reactor uses high-pressure water that does not boil inside the reactor. Nuclear power plants have advantages of producing large amounts of low-carbon energy but also have disadvantages like radioactive waste and safety risks if not properly managed.
Nuclear Plant
1. A nuclear power plant uses nuclear fission to generate heat and convert it to usable energy. Uranium atoms are split in the nuclear reactor, producing heat to boil water into steam.
2. The steam turns turbines that generate electricity. Control rods regulate the fission rate. Steam generators, turbines, pumps, condensers, and cooling towers complete the steam/water cycle.
3. Nuclear power has low carbon emissions but produces radioactive waste disposal challenges. It also poses risks from accidents, though plants aim for maximum safety. Fuel resources like uranium are finite as well.
nuclear reactors
A nuclear reactor uses controlled nuclear fission to generate heat, which can then be used to generate electricity.

It outlines different types of nuclear reactors including boiling water, pressurized water and heavy water reactors. The presentation also provides details about India's nuclear power program and its plans to significantly expand nuclear power generation in the coming decades.
Nuclear power plant
Nuclear power plants generate electricity through nuclear fission. In a pressurized water reactor (PWR), heat from nuclear fission is used to heat water and produce steam to turn turbines and generate electricity. The steam does not come into contact with radioactive materials. Nuclear power plants produce far more energy from uranium fuel than fossil fuel plants and produce no greenhouse gases, but nuclear waste requires careful storage and disposal.
Nuclear reactors
The document discusses three types of nuclear reactors: fusion power reactors, light water reactors, and heavy water reactors. It provides details on the mechanisms and components of fusion power reactors and light water reactors. Fusion power reactors use fusion reactions to generate energy by fusing atomic nuclei. Light water reactors are the most common type of thermal-neutron reactor and use normal water as both a coolant and neutron moderator, with solid fissile elements as fuel.
Better and faster
Fast breeder reactors can breed more fissile material than they consume, improving fuel utilization. They use liquid metal like sodium for cooling instead of water as moderators are not needed. India's first commercial fast breeder reactor, the 500 MWe Prototype Fast Breeder Reactor, is under construction and will go critical in 2014. Fast breeders and reprocessing of spent fuel can help reduce nuclear waste and allow uranium resources to last much longer than current light water reactors.

This document provides an overview of a fission power plant, also known as a nuclear power plant. It discusses the history of nuclear power generation beginning in 1948. The key components of a nuclear power plant include the nuclear reactor, control rods, steam generators, steam turbine, and condenser. Nuclear fission in the reactor produces heat that is used to generate steam to power the turbine and generate electricity. While nuclear power has advantages over fossil fuels in reducing emissions, it also has disadvantages such as nuclear waste management and safety risks.
nuclear power plant
Nuclear power plants generate electricity through nuclear fission in a reactor. There are two main types of reactors - pressurized water reactors and boiling water reactors. Pressurized water reactors keep water under pressure so it heats but does not boil, while boiling water reactors allow the water to boil. The heated water generates steam that powers turbines connected to generators, producing electricity. Nuclear power plants produce little greenhouse gas emissions during operation but some during other stages of the nuclear fuel cycle. Radioactive waste is a byproduct and must be safely contained and isolated.
Boiling water reactorbapi
The boiling water reactor (BWR) is a type of light water nuclear reactor that is used to generate electrical power. In a BWR, the reactor core heats water, which boils and turns to steam to directly drive a turbine. The steam then goes to a condenser and is converted back to liquid water before returning to the reactor core. This differs from a pressurized water reactor where the heated water does not boil. BWRs have advantages like higher thermal efficiency due to eliminating a heat exchanger circuit and using a lower pressure vessel than PWRs. However, BWRs also have disadvantages such as potential radioactive contamination of turbine mechanisms and requiring more elaborate safety precautions.

Nuclear Fission
Nuclear fission occurs when heavy atomic nuclei split into lighter parts, releasing energy. In a nuclear reactor, uranium-235 nuclei are split in a controlled chain reaction to generate heat and produce steam to power turbines for electricity production. Nuclear reactors use fuel rods containing uranium-235 surrounded by water as a moderator. Control rods made of boron or cadmium absorb neutrons to control the fission rate. Nuclear power plants transfer heat from the reactor to steam, which powers the turbines to generate electricity via an electromagnetic generator. Radioactive waste from the process requires careful long-term storage.

Technical Properties of A Nuclear Power Plant
Nuclear power plants generate electricity by initiating and controlling a nuclear chain reaction within the uranium fuel bundles. When a neutron strikes a uranium atom, it causes fission which releases heat and more neutrons to split other atoms. The heat is used to boil water into steam to spin turbines and generate electricity. Reactors tightly control this chain reaction to produce only the needed amount of heat. Heavy water acts as a moderator to slow neutrons and sustain the chain reaction within the fuel channels. Safety systems and containment structures prevent radioactive release in the unlikely event of an accident.

Lesson 6 Atoms to Electricity | The Harnessed Atom (2016)
The document describes how a nuclear power plant uses nuclear fission to generate electricity in three steps:
1. Uranium fuel rods in the reactor core undergo fission, releasing heat to boil water into steam. Control rods regulate the reaction.
2. The high-pressure steam spins turbines connected to generators, producing electricity.
3. The steam is cooled in a condenser and recycled, while residual heat is dissipated in a cooling tower to prevent warming nearby bodies of water. Three separate water loops transfer heat without mixing fluids.

It covers the Ackerman steering principle which allows the inside wheel to turn through a larger angle than the outside wheel when taking a turn. It also discusses kingpin inclination, camber angle, castor angle, toe angle, and toe out on turns. The key points are that steering geometry must allow the inside wheel to follow a tighter turning radius, and angles like camber, castor, and toe must be properly adjusted for stable and straight driving.
Electronic Brake force Distribution.ppt
Electronic brake-force distribution (EBFD) is a vehicle safety system that automatically balances brake force applied to each wheel based on the vehicle's weight distribution. It prevents wheels from locking up during heavy braking which could cause fishtailing or loss of control. The EBFD system includes sensors that monitor wheel speed and vehicle movement, and an electronic control unit that sends commands to modulators to adjust the brake force on each wheel as needed. This helps maintain optimal braking efficiency and stability, especially during emergency braking maneuvers or unstable road conditions.

Powder bed fusion (PBF) additive manufacturing uses a laser or electron beam to selectively fuse powder layers and build a metal part layer-by-layer. Laser-based systems like DMLS, SLM, and laser cusing use a laser to fuse the powder, while electron beam melting (EBM) uses an electron beam. EBM has higher build rates than laser-based systems but lower accuracy and smaller build volumes. Both technologies can make complex metal parts for applications in aerospace, medical, and more, offering benefits like reduced weight, part consolidation, and design optimization. However, PBF still needs improvements in speed, accuracy, process control, and cost to become more widely used.
3D PRINTING.pdf
The document discusses a study on the influence of layer thickness on the impact property of 3D-printed polylactic acid (PLA) samples. Samples were printed with layer thicknesses of 0.1, 0.15, 0.2, 0.25 and 0.3 mm and tested according to ISO 180 standards. Results showed that impact strength increased with thicker layer thicknesses, with the optimal strength found at 0.3 mm. Increasing layer thickness also decreased printing time. Overall, the study found that layer thickness is an important parameter that influences the mechanical properties of 3D printed parts, with thicker layers improving impact strength but increasing print time.

Hybrid vehicles.pptx
A hybrid vehicle combines a gasoline engine with electric motors and batteries to improve fuel efficiency. During regular driving, a small gasoline engine powers a generator to charge the batteries and provide electricity to the electric motor, which drives the wheels. During acceleration, the batteries provide extra power to the electric motor. When braking or idling, the electric motor acts as a generator to recharge the batteries. Hybrids can be parallel or series designs, but the goal is to allow the gasoline engine to run efficiently while electricity from regenerative braking and batteries assists with power needs. This optimized system results in better gas mileage than a conventional vehicle.
THERMAL ENGINEERING.docx
The document discusses the properties and types of steam. Steam is the gaseous form of water and has desirable properties such as carrying large quantities of heat and being produced from cheap and readily available water. There are three types of steam: wet steam contains water particles, dry steam has all water particles converted to vapor, and superheated steam is dry saturated steam heated to higher temperatures. Superheated steam has advantages like being able to cool more before condensing, providing higher thermal efficiency, and having higher heat content and work capacity.

The aquaponic system of planting is a method that does not require soil usage. It is a method that only needs water, fish, lava rocks (a substitute for soil), and plants. Aquaponic systems are sustainable and environmentally friendly. Its use not only helps to plant in small spaces but also helps reduce artificial chemical use and minimizes excess water use, as aquaponics consumes 90% less water than soil-based gardening. The study applied a descriptive and experimental design to assess and compare conventional and reconstructed aquaponic methods for reproducing tomatoes. The researchers created an observation checklist to determine the significant factors of the study. The study aims to determine the significant difference between traditional aquaponics and reconstructed aquaponics systems propagating tomatoes in terms of height, weight, girth, and number of fruits. The reconstructed aquaponics system’s higher growth yield results in a much more nourished crop than the traditional aquaponics system. It is superior in its number of fruits, height, weight, and girth measurement. Moreover, the reconstructed aquaponics system is proven to eliminate all the hindrances present in the traditional aquaponics system, which are overcrowding of fish, algae growth, pest problems, contaminated water, and dead fish.

nuclear power plant.pptx
- 2. INTRODUCTION A nuclear power plant is similar to thermal power plant in which electricity is produced by atoms where as in thermal power plant electricity is generated by using steam
- 3. HISTORY Electricity was generated by a nuclear reactor for the first time over on December 20, 1951 at the EBR-I experimental station. On june 27, 1954, the world’s first nuclear power plant obninsk was started. The world’s first commercial scale power station, calder hall in england was opened in october 17, 1956.
- 4. Pressurized water reactor Boiling water reactor Fast Breeder reactor CANDU Reactor Pool type reactor Gas cooled reactor Molten salt reactor TYPES OF NUCLEAR REACTOR
- 5. CHAIN REACTION An induced nuclear fission event. A neutron is absorbed by the nucleus of a uranium-235 atom, which in turn splits into fast-moving lighter elements (fission products) and free neutrons. Though both reactors and nuclear weapons rely on nuclear chain reactions, the rate of reactions in a reactor is much slower than in a bomb.
- 6. When large fissile atomic nucleus ,URANIUM-235 absorbs a neutron it may undergo fission. Thus the heavy nucleus split into two or more lighter nucleus and release kinetic energy or free electrons. These electrons ,absorbed by other fissile atoms which produce more electrons by more fissile events This is called- NUCLEAR CHAIN REACTION FISSION PROCESESS
- 7. The basic function of PWR is to convert energy of nuclear fission into electricity. PWR- a. primary circuit b. secondary circuit Primary system-converts the fission energy into steam Secondary system-converts steam into electricity and is delivered to the consumer PRESSURIZED WATER REACTOR
- 8. Main parts NUCLEAR REACTOR - (Control Rod, Fuel Rod, Reflector, Moderator ) STEAM GENERATOR COOLANT PUMP TURBINE CONDENSER FEED PUMP ELECTRIC GENERATOR
- 9. Primary circuit In reactor fissile fuel undergoes fission and releases heat. Coolant absorbs heat. Thus the energy released during fission is converted into steam by primary circuit, and sends it to secondary circuit Secondary circuit After absorbing water boils to steam. It passes to turbine and rotates runner. Thus electric power is produced in generator. WORKING PRINCIPLE
- 10. I. Nuclear reactors A nuclear reactor is a device to initiate and control a sustained nuclear reaction. The nuclear reactor is the heart of the plant. In its central part the reactor core’s heat is generator by controlled nuclear fission. In nuclear power plants, different types of reactors, cooling circuits, moderators are sometimes used. COMPONENTS OF PRESSURIZED WATER REACTOR
- 11. Steam turbine The object of the steam turbine is to convert heat contained in steam into mechanical energy. Generator The generator converts kinetic energy supplied by the turbine into electrical energy Thus electricity is produced.
- 12. Cooling system A cooling system removes heat from reactor core and transports it to another area of the plant, where the thermal energy can be harnessed to produce electricity or to do other useful work. Safety valves In the event of emergency, two independent safety valves can be used to prevent pipes from bursting or the reactor from exploiding.
- 13. Feed water pump The water level in steam generator and nuclear reactor is controlled using feed water system. The feed water pump has the task of taking water from the condensate system, increasing the pressure and forcing into steam generators or directly into reactor vessel
- 14. Emergency power supply The emergency power supplies of a nuclear power plant are built up by several layers of redundancy, such as diesel generators, gas turbine generators and battery buffers. the majority of required power is used to supply feed pumps in order to cool reactor and remove the decay heat after shut down.
- 17. PLANT-LAYOUT
- 18. Operating nuclear reactors contains large number of radioactive fission products which, if dispersed con pose a direct radiation hazard. Also ingested by humans and animals. The coolant contained in the reactor may fail, and the fuel may melt and cause the vessel in which it is contained to overheat and melt. This is called nuclear melt down Failure modes of nuclear power plant
- 19. First accident 1952- chalk river (CANADA) Recent accidents 2011- fukushima (JAPAN) 2011- onaguwa (JAPAN) 2006- fleurus (BELGIUM) HISTORIC ACCIDENTS
- 20. A number of new designs for nuclear power generation, collectively known as GENERATION IV REACTORS ,are the subject of active research and may be used in practical power generation in the future. Passively safe plants are available to be built. The 1600 MWE european pressurized reactor is being built in olkiluoto, finland. FUTURE POWER PLANTS
