Core of CROCUS, a small nuclear reactor used for research at the EPFL in Switzerland. A nuclear reactor, formerly known as an atomic pile, is a device used to initiate and control a sustained nuclear chain reaction. Nuclear reactors are used at nuclear power plants for electricity generation and in propulsion of ships. Heat from nuclear fission is passed to a working fluid (water or gas), which runs through steam turbines. These either drive a ship's propellers or turn electrical generators.
Nuclear plants use the fission process to generate the energy needed to produce electricity. In a nuclear plant, atoms of low-grade uranium are split apart. This creates the heat needed to create steam. The highly pressurized steam then travels through pipes to fan-like blades in a turbine.ossil Plants. Steam-electric plants produce energy by using some form of heat energy to turn water into steam. The highly pressurized steam then travels through pipes to fan-like blades in a turbine. The turbine begins to turn, causing giant wire coils inside the generator to turn.
