NUCLEAR POWER PLANT
NUCLEAR FUEL
Nuclear fuel is any material that can be
consumed to derive nuclear energy. The most
common type of nuclear fuel is fissile elements
that can be made to undergo nuclear fission chain
reactions in a nuclear reactor
The most common nuclear fuels are 235U and
239Pu. Not all nuclear fuels are used in fission
chain reactions
NUCLEAR FISSION
When a neutron strikes an atom of uranium, the
uranium splits ingto two lighter atoms and releases
heat simultaneously.
Fission of heavy elements is an exothermic reaction
which can release large amounts of energy both as
electromagnetic radiation and as kinetic energy of the
fragments
NUCLEAR CHAIN REACTIONS
A chain reaction refers to a process in which neutrons
released in fission produce an additional fission in at least
one further nucleus. This nucleus in turn produces neutrons,
and the process repeats. If the process is controlled it is
used for nuclear power or if uncontrolled it is used for
nuclear weapons
U235 + n → fission + 2 or 3 n + 200 MeV
If each neutron releases two more neutrons, then the
number of fissions doubles each generation. In that
case, in 10 generations there are 1,024 fissions and in
80 generations about 6 x 10 23 (a mole) fissions.
NUCLEAR REACTOR
A nuclear reactor is a device in which nuclear chain
reactions are initiated, controlled, and sustained at a
steady rate, as opposed to a nuclear bomb, in which
the chain reaction occurs in a fraction of a second and
is uncontrolled causing an explotion.
CONTROL RODS
Control rods made of a material that absorbs
neutrtons are inserted into the bundle using a
mechanism that can rise or lower the control rods.
. The control rods essentially contain neutron
absorbers like, boron, cadmium or indium.
STEAM GENERATORS
Steam generators are heat exchangers used to
convert water into steam from heat produced in a
nuclear reactor core.
Either ordinary water or heavy water is used as the
coolant.
STEAM TURBINE
A steam turbine is a mechanical device that extracts
thermal energy from pressurized steam, and converts it
into useful mechanical
 Various high-performance alloys and superalloys
have been used for steam generator tubing.
COOLANT PUMP
The coolant pump pressurizes the coolant to
pressures of the orderof 155bar.
The pressue of the coolant loop is maintained almost
constant with the help of the pump and a pressurizer
unit.
FEED PUMP
Steam coming out of the turbine, flows
through the condenser for condensation and
recirculated for the next cycle of operation.
The feed pump circulates the condensed
water in the working fluid loop.
CONDENSER
Condenser is a device or unit which is used to
condense vapor into liquid.
The objective of the condenser are to reduce the
turbine exhaust pressure to increase the efficiency and
to recover high qyuality feed water in the form of
condensate & feed back it to the steam generator
without any further treatment.
COOLING TOWER
Cooling towers are heat removal devices used to
transfer process waste heat to the atmosphere.
Water cirulating throughthe codeser is taken to the
cooling tower for cooling and reuse
ADVANTAGES
Nuclear power generation does emit relatively low amounts
of carbon dioxide (CO2). The emissions of green house gases
and therefore the contribution of nuclear power plants to
global warming is therefore relatively little.
This technology is readily available, it does not have to be
developed first.
It is possible to generate a high amount of electrical energy
in one single plant
DISADVANTAGES
The problem of radioactive waste is still an unsolved one.
High risks: It is technically impossible to build a plant with
100% security.
The energy source for nuclear energy is Uranium. Uranium
is a scarce resource, its supply is estimated to last only for the
next 30 to 60 years depending on the actual demand.
DISADVANTAGES
Nuclear power plants as well as nuclear waste could
be preferred targets for terrorist attacks..
During the operation of nuclear power plants,
radioactive waste is produced, which in turn can be
used for the production of nuclear weapons.

  • 4. NUCLEAR CHAIN REACTIONS A chain reaction refers to a process in which neutrons released in fission produce an additional fission in at least one further nucleus. This nucleus in turn produces neutrons, and the process repeats. If the process is controlled it is used for nuclear power or if uncontrolled it is used for nuclear weapons

  • 6. U235 + n → fission + 2 or 3 n + 200 MeV If each neutron releases two more neutrons, then the number of fissions doubles each generation. In that case, in 10 generations there are 1,024 fissions and in 80 generations about 6 x 10 23 (a mole) fissions.

  • 8. NUCLEAR REACTOR A nuclear reactor is a device in which nuclear chain reactions are initiated, controlled, and sustained at a steady rate, as opposed to a nuclear bomb, in which the chain reaction occurs in a fraction of a second and is uncontrolled causing an explotion.
  • 9. CONTROL RODS Control rods made of a material that absorbs neutrtons are inserted into the bundle using a mechanism that can rise or lower the control rods. . The control rods essentially contain neutron absorbers like, boron, cadmium or indium.
  • 10. STEAM GENERATORS Steam generators are heat exchangers used to convert water into steam from heat produced in a nuclear reactor core. Either ordinary water or heavy water is used as the coolant.
  • 11. STEAM TURBINE A steam turbine is a mechanical device that extracts thermal energy from pressurized steam, and converts it into useful mechanical  Various high-performance alloys and superalloys have been used for steam generator tubing.
  • 12. COOLANT PUMP The coolant pump pressurizes the coolant to pressures of the orderof 155bar. The pressue of the coolant loop is maintained almost constant with the help of the pump and a pressurizer unit.
  • 13. FEED PUMP Steam coming out of the turbine, flows through the condenser for condensation and recirculated for the next cycle of operation. The feed pump circulates the condensed water in the working fluid loop.
  • 14. CONDENSER Condenser is a device or unit which is used to condense vapor into liquid. The objective of the condenser are to reduce the turbine exhaust pressure to increase the efficiency and to recover high qyuality feed water in the form of condensate & feed back it to the steam generator without any further treatment.
  • 15. COOLING TOWER Cooling towers are heat removal devices used to transfer process waste heat to the atmosphere. Water cirulating throughthe codeser is taken to the cooling tower for cooling and reuse
  • 16. ADVANTAGES Nuclear power generation does emit relatively low amounts of carbon dioxide (CO2). The emissions of green house gases and therefore the contribution of nuclear power plants to global warming is therefore relatively little. This technology is readily available, it does not have to be developed first. It is possible to generate a high amount of electrical energy in one single plant
  • 17. DISADVANTAGES The problem of radioactive waste is still an unsolved one. High risks: It is technically impossible to build a plant with 100% security. The energy source for nuclear energy is Uranium. Uranium is a scarce resource, its supply is estimated to last only for the next 30 to 60 years depending on the actual demand.
  • 18. DISADVANTAGES Nuclear power plants as well as nuclear waste could be preferred targets for terrorist attacks.. During the operation of nuclear power plants, radioactive waste is produced, which in turn can be used for the production of nuclear weapons.
