Ok, How nuclear power works is, well a long story so i'm going to explain it in uber brief bits so it is quicker to type. So here we go Number one. The power plant byes some uranium-235, a radioactive element. Not like nuclear terrorists, They buy 90% enriched U-235, not 2-3% its too weak to even blow up me (I think), so yeah not like nuclear material smugglers that you see on call of duty and have to blow of his arm and that stupid helicopter gets in the ****ing way and you have wait for the right wind direction so it goes right in the bastards head, but you miss (shoots off his arm. kind of miss) and he lives and sgt paul jackson dies. Ok enough about games more science I don't say, Number deux, ok, Then they put it in a uranium-235 (which is not smuggled, bought safely from some safe people) into a reactor, where some science happens. Which funnily enough i'm going to explain, due to the fact that i think i have too. Ok, This "science" is the breaking up of the element where it splits the element in two lighter atoms (no ***t, of course its going to get lighter nothing can duplicate its self and produce energy while doing so) and throws of two or three neutrons. They split because another neutron hits another atom. When it does split it produces high amounts of heat and gamma radiation and some beta radiation, which was in the form of those neutrons things.
The uranium-235 when it decays produce 200 million electron volts ( OMG what. which is nor of those you ask and so do i),when you think how small a atom is (yes its smaller than your knob). One pound, thats a 1 just like number one, of uranium is equal to about 1000000, yes, one million, 1 million, 1x10*6 gallons of fuel.
Ok the uranium is made in to rods and gets dipped in to some water, so the water can cool them down, well steal the heat from them (evil water steal its heat maybe it wants to be warm). Number three, 3, uber scientist worked out that the uranium would melt to death (ok, would not melt but chain react and blow up some happy peoples and some unhappy peoples, mind you there are going to lots of unhappy peoples if happy peoples die from nuclear power station, cuss all the happy people would turn unhappy and give the retard scientist, that forgot to put them there like all the other power stations, evils, fun fun fun, physics fun) if it was left like this so some person put some rods called "control rods" over the outside of them, made of thick metal.They lower or raise these to loser and raise the heat.
Number 4 ok the water that flows pasts like, i said heats up (after steal some heat, bitch slaps), so it then is moved along in to a second camber (and then another then another until it finds the camber of secret and battles a giant snake to the death) that boils water into steam, Number 5, the steam then gets sent into a turbine. Number 6, the turbine turn, whoooooo. number 7 the turbine turns a generator. Number 8 the generator makes some powers.
Number 9 ok i've made some power now and now i need to cool the steam done, so thought a condenser it goes, cooling, cooling, kooling, koolioing. Done cool steam, now water fun enough
