Nuclear power plants are thermal power plant whose heat source is a nuclear reactor. As in many normal station powers the heat generates steam which drives a steam turbine, which, in addition, is connected to an electric generator which provides electricity. In addition, since fuel is a small part of production costs, nuclear plants are almost always regarded as base load stations.
The main components of each nuclear power generators, nuclear reactor safety systems, steam turbine, condenser, generator, circulating pumps, pressurizer and condensate-feedwater system.
In the video below, You will learn how nuclear power plants work along the principles of a nuclear reactor under water pressure. Check it out!
