Hey there !!



 \boxed{ \boxed{ \bf Nuclear \: power \: plant . }}

→ A power plant in which the heat required to make steam and turns turbines ( to drive generator for making Electricity ) is obtained by nuclear reactions, is called a Nuclear power plant.
The nuclear power plants uses uranium-235 as fuel to produce heat.

 \bf \underline{=> \underline{ Construction \: and \: working.}}

→ In a nuclear power plant, the fission of nuclear fuel uranium-235 is carried out in a steel Pressure Vessel V of reactor R (reactor is a kind of nuclear furnace ) (see attachment 3). The enriched uranium-235 rods marked A (called fuel elements ) are inserted in a core made of graphite blocks inside the reactor. Graphite is called a moderator. It slows down the speed of neutrons to make them fit for causing fission. In-between the uranium roads are inserted boron rods B. Boron rods are called control rods because they absorb neutrons and prevent the fission reaction from going out of control. The reactor is enclosed to a concrete chamber M having thick walls to observe the nuclear reaction ( so as to protect the outside world from the dangerous nuclear radiation ). Liquid sodium ( or carbon dioxide gas ) is used as a coolant to transfer the heat produced in a reactor by fission of heat exchanger ( or boiler ) for converting water into steam.

→ The controlled fission of Uranium-235 in the nuclear reactor produces a lot of energy. Liquid sodium is pumped continuously through the pipe embedded in reactor by using a pump P. Sodium absorbs the heat produced in the reactor. This extremely hot sodium is then passed into the coil of heat exchanger H containing water. Water absorbs heat from hot Sodium and passed into the coil to form in steam. The hot steam at high pressure is introduced into a turbine Chamber C having a turbine T. The pressure of steam makes the turbine rotates. The shaft S of turbine is connected to a generator. When the turbine rotates, its shaft also rotates and drives the generator. The generator produces electricity.



✔✔ Hence, it is solved ✅✅.

heya!!

here is your answer ⤵️⤵️

Constitution and working of nuclear power plant.

In nuclear power plants, the uranium atom splits it into energy and releases heat. so, this becomes hot and turn it into stream. after the stream, it turns it into Turbrine.here, turbine Works as electricity. It changes into generator and serves as electricity. This electricity turns into voltage. It goes to transformers.


hope my answer helps you
