the nuclear power plant

It is the place in the Earth where the nuclear energy is developed. It use the fission reactions.

There are different parts in the nuclear power plant :

1. The reactor. It is the hottest place of the nuclear power plant. Here it is the uranium where the nuclear fission reactions are produced.

2. The vapour generator. It is the place where the hot water which is expell by the reactor heat another amount of water of other circuit of tube, this water is evaporated.

3. Turbine. It is the place which rotate by the water vapour in hight pressure. here the electric energy is produced by the generator which use the movment of the turbines to produce it.

4.Condenser. it is the place where the hot water vapur is condensated by the cool water which come from the cooling tower.

The nuclear power plant can produce 1000 MW of electric energy.

A

-it produce a lot of energy with small quantities

- doesnt pollute the atmosphere

- there are more uranium than fossil fuels

- it can produce energy in all the year

D

-it is very toxic
