Water-cooled Reactor «Hot · WALKTHROUGH»

While there are several variations, most modern plants fall into two categories of : 1. Pressurized Water Reactors (PWRs)

The most common design globally, Pressurized Water Reactors (PWRs) keep water under extreme pressure so it even at temperatures exceeding NUCLEAR 101: How Does a Nuclear Reactor Work? water-cooled reactor

It carries immense heat away from the reactor core to prevent melting and transfers that energy to drive turbines. While there are several variations, most modern plants
