Energy Flow Diagram, Converting Electrical Energy to Heat to Light

Energy Flow Diagram, Converting Electrical  Energy to Heat to Light Take the case of a filament lamp ( which was used in early days because now a days these are replaced by LEDs ). Such diagrams are very simple, input-losses output. These diagrams are developed by a scientist “Sankey”, so these diagrams are also called as Sankey diagrams. … Read more

Nuclear Chain Reaction In a Nuclear Power Plant

Nuclear Chain Reaction In a Nuclear Power Plant Q. Explain the nuclear chain reaction in a nuclear power plant.  A nuclear chain reaction involves the fission (splitting) of large radioactive atoms like uranium or plutonium into smaller atoms-the splitting of uranium or plutonium starts with the uranium or plutonium and a single neutron. When one … Read more

(b) Concentrating collectors : Linear Fresnel reflector, Parabolic dish, Central receiver.

Properties and Functions of Moderator in Nuclear Reactor

Properties and Functions of Moderator in Nuclear Reactor Properties of Good Moderator : The moderator must not absorb neutrons itself. This means it should have a relatively low neutron absorption cross-section. The moderator should efficiently slow down the neutrons. It should be in pure form. It should be thermally stable. It should have good heat … Read more
