Q

DISCUSS HOW THE REACTOR PRODUCES USABLE ENERGY.

A

Nuclear fission is the process of an atomic nucleus splitting into two lighter fragments of comparable mass accompanied by a release of energy. This energy, in the form of heat, is added to water, which increases the internal energy and converts the water to steam. The steam then passes through a nozzle where the internal energy is converted into kinetic energy. The high velocity steam leaving the nozzle is then deflected by the turbine blade and its kinetic energy is absorbed by the blade, which exerts a torque on the turbine shaft. The steam is then condensed and returned to be reconverted into steam.
