A nuclear power plant (nuclear power station) looks like a standard thermal power station with one exception. The heat source in the nuclear power plant is a nuclear reactor. As is typical in all conventional thermal power stations the heat is used to generate steam which drives a steam turbine connected to a generator which produces electricity.
Many reactors rely on proximity to the coast to draw sea water used to cool the condenser. And the plant shouldn’t be located too far from end-users, since much electricity is lost in long-distance transports.
New reactors have not been built for many years. This increases the risks in terms of failing to meet time schedules and potentially increasing the cost. This uncertainty, though, is being gradually reduced as new plants are built.
Main parts of nuclear power plant
As you can see the nuclear power plant consist of two main buildings:
• Containment building (houses Nuclear Reactor)
• Turbine building (houses Turbo Generator)
The containment building is the key building of the nuclear island. It is an air-tight building, which houses a nuclear reactor and its pressurizer, reactor coolant pumps, steam generators, and other equipment or piping that might otherwise release fission products to the atmosphere in the event of an accident. Such buildings are usually made of steel-reinforced concrete.
The turbine building is the key building of the conventional (turbine) island. The turbine building houses a turbine, generator, condenser and other equipment, which is used for conversion thermal energy from pressurized steam to mechanical work used for drive the generator.
Also a cooling tower can be part of the nuclear power plant, but it is not necessary. Many nuclear power plants (coastal nuclear power plants) do not cool the cooling water via cooling towers.
Nuclear reactors operate on the principle of nuclear fission, the process in which a heavy atomic nucleus splits into two smaller fragments. The nuclear fragments are in very excited states and emit neutrons, other subatomic particles, and photons. The emitted neutrons may then cause new fissions, which in turn yield more neutrons, and so forth. Such a continuous self-sustaining series of fissions constitutes a fission chain reaction. A large amount of energy is released in this process, and this energy is the basis of nuclear power systems.
How to control fission of uranium – 235
Slow neutrons strike nuclei of uranium-235, causing the nuclei to fission, or split, and release fast neutrons. The fast neutrons are absorbed or slowed by the nuclei of a graphite moderator (control rodes), which allows just enough slow neutrons to continue the fission chain reaction at a constant rate.
There are a large number of ways in which a nuclear reactor may be designed and constructed; many types have been experimentally realized. Over the years, nuclear engineers have developed reactors with solid and liquid fuels, thick- and no-reflectors, forced cooling circuits and natural conduction or convection heat-removal systems, and so on. Most reactors, however, have certain basic components.

Can I use this video clip?
Nuclear Power plant working model in Hindi- https://youtu.be/g-xfLwUXEbw
#nice
I stopped watching because the music was too loud and just drowning out the mono tone voice.
Great Video !+)
Like The Music Too
!+)
Great…
Thanks bro…
The content is great and super informative, thank you for your efforts. If there is anything I could reccomend it’d be for you to consider a human voice and perhaps a lower music volume for any future videos you make. Thanks again!
Robotic voices piss me off
WHY is the STEAM coming out of the COOLING towers being shown black instead of the harmless white MOISTURE that it actually IS and that bloody stupid false voiceover needs scrapping and a PERSON put it its place
It’s all that I need! Thankyou for uploading this. It helped me a lot!
Like just for the hq captions

Very very very slow even than a snail
ΠΟΣΟ ΜΑΛΑΚΑΣ ΕΙΣΑΙ;
Nice bro
Great video.
Great video but the music playing in the background is annoying
Lame ass automated voice over.
Voice in ur video is not satisfactory…. Plz change it..
.
An unclear reactor works by bombarding the fuel rods with neutrons generated by a neutron howitzer, the fuel rods act like a resistor against the neutrons generating heat, very similar to an element in a kettle. The neutrons generated in the howitzer are produced from high voltage accelerated through a partical accelerator. The high voltage is stepped up from the output power of the plant. Nuclear fission is an unclear way to explain how a nuclear reactor works imo.
It’s actually not a bad video, but it would be 100000000 times better if there was an actual voiceover.
You provided a wealth of information. Though the voice was very flat, no variation of tone and slow. The background music was also a bad idea. I would like to see you doing more videos in the future.
hello can i use this animation on my own channel?
this video make me sleep
How do you create animation and videos.which software do you use please tell..Or make the video on it..
Your video is great! I really got so much from it. Thank you, and keep up the great work
Lol I only know how an RBMK reactor works (because chernobyl)
your animation is very great. good job buddy
unwatchable with robo voice and music
Urgh! I hate these fake voiceovers.
We like this
THERE SHOULD NOT BE MUSIC IN BACKGROUND
Thank you it’s all I need
Is there anyone wanted to know about nuclear energy and its future I just visit

Why are u using graphite you can use water
