nice informative video. shame that we create something that destroyes long after we use it, we call that clean, just to boil water. really what a silly idea. of all the ways to heat water.
@jasperkabbani Well, burning fossil fuels is technically easier, but nuclear energy is much cleaner. Burning coal has large impacts on the environment. Now, they are saying that nuclear energy can cause thermal pollution, but thats something that can be potentially eliminated. Overall it is the most effective, efficient way to create energy at the moment.
It seems like we should be able to use electrolysis to power some hydrogen torches, they burn at around the temperature of the sun if I'm not mistaken. Why not use that as a heat source instead of f#$%ing radiation? There are several patents out for improved electrolysis processes. This is not beyond our reach.
@jasperkabbani Nuclear power is the cheapest and probably cleanest way to generate heat on a large scale. Your other options are to burn something (causes pollution or de-forrestation), solar power (far more expensive), geothermal power (can only be used in certain places) or nuclear fusion (dose not yet exist).
Does a nuclear power plant need outside electricity from the grid to operate safely or does it generate it's own electricity to run the pumps, lights, computers, valves, and other stuff?
@johnny102marvin Normally, at power, we take a little of the energy we generate and use it to supply our own "house loads." Upon a reactor shutdown however, we have to get that power from the grid. In the even of a loss of grid, we have emergency diesel generators capable of supplying all of our safe shutdown loads for 7 days before refueling. All of this happens automatically, or we as operators can do it manually. Hope that helps.
@l2onniel It is not power, energy or electricity that is the wrong word. It is the word "Creation"! Lavoisier said: "Nothing is created, nothing is destroyed, everything is transformed". Energy is transformed, not created.
And btw. Power, electricity and energy are completely different things. Energy is the capability to induce a change in state, i.e., speed, position, mass, temperature,etc... Power is the rate at which energy is transferred. Electricity is the word used to denominate all the phenomenons related to the electric field, and therefore, electric charges (electrons).
What's funny is that most people fail to realize that Nuclear reactors and power plants are the safest places in the world, as in, they have more security and means of prevention and reaction if shit were to get out of hand. They don't let just ANYONE work anywhere where there's Uranium/Plutonium/MOX fuel. I'm telling you, this shit is strapped down tight.
@fight2legalize no its time to build 100s of these, only two incidents of death from nuclear power, fukushima and Chernobyl, all had old technology cooling systems and reactors, yet 100s of incidents from fossil fuels but because enviornmentalists we are stuck with old dangerous power plants even though the world could be on just clean energy if we built the new power plants with far safer reactors and cooling systems
@chillercm Radiation has killed thousands. We don't even need power. We need a major emp. Humans are too stupid for nuclear power. We let our dumbass elite build these thing in the most dangerous spots. Nuclear power plants are more like weapons than anything. Death to the power grid!
@fight2legalize I already live in Uranium country, 3 generations and no cancer, um, I wonder just how safe it all is. I fact the township is currently fighting uneducated folk like you because a town full of librals is crying because we want a new Mill to be put in nearby.
@DragmodNotloc Humans are stupid. We have allowed our governments to build nuclear power plants on fault lines and over super volcanoes. That's the reason why they are so dangerous. If we could destroy the evil f_cks that cause horror on this planet, we could then probably build safe nuclear plants around the globe. I'm for no power on the planet. I think if we continue to use power, it should be solar only. The sun gives us plenty of energy.
@fight2legalize I have a challenge for you then, see if you can go 2 weeks without using any power in your home. Switch of you breakers, go get some candles, matches, and fresh foods that don't require a microwave to cook. you cannot use your phone, TV, computer, hot water heater, car, etc.
before saying the world doesn't need electricity, see if you yourself can live without it.
in fact, in the challenge, you can use one object that uses electricity, a video camera. prove to the world that...
@DragmodNotloc Unfortunately I can't do this at the moment because of where I live. I'll soon be claiming land and building an Earth home. I have two solar powered generators. We will soon be knocked back to a pre-electronic state anyway. No one will have power as soon as the incoming celestial body gets closer. We may all be dead by late October anyway. I'll try to go beyond your challenge by then. For know I will use what electricity I get to fight the system with words on a screen.
@fight2legalize a celestial body is coming to kill us you say, well if it will be anything like the last major impact, even your solar panels will become useless, seeing there wouldnt be any sunlight for some time until the dust settles back to earth. what you should get instead is a small portable Nuclear Reactor, it even works in the dark, I could even send you at least 4 years worth of uranium free of charge, i just have to pick it up off the ground behind my house. (raw state, non-enriched)
@DragmodNotloc I didn't figure my solar power would work. I'm just saying, I'd rather use that than coal or nuclear. I'm just praying for no electricity even though several thousands of pretty pennies were spent on them. I'm sure nuclear is better than coal.
@fight2legalize I appreciate your comment, but may I paraphrase it, what you wish for is a future in which there is now demand for a large scale power grid, which is in fact falling into major disrepair due to a lack of funding (it out grew its resources) I'm also in favor of "renewable resources"
but until then, I see Nuclear power as the best alternative. It just irritates me when people cry out against things with false statements, such as your comment to chillercm and a few others.
The sun is not a reliable source of energy. It is only available half of the day, and gives no business opportunity to small-time power companies, like Dominion Power, ect. Rather, it gives all of the electricity industries to the government, and ultimately, the NWO, which would control the entire Earth's electricty.
If you believe in facts, you don't believe in demons.
If you believe in facts, you would know solar power is unreliable and cannot sustain the entire world, while hydro-power and nuclear power are much more reliable and better forms of energy-conversions than solar energy.
@AGeekWithAShotgun The sun is a constant source! It put's out enough energy in 1 second to power world for and entire year numb skull. Don't play me for a fool. You need to educate yourself as well.
Can you imagine the number of solar panels that would have to be placed across the world to absorb this amount of "1 second" energy? It puts OUT that much energy, but the majority of it is not directed towards the Earth, fool. Even when it is in the view of the sun, only half of the world has access to the sun's power every 12 hours.
@AGeekWithAShotgun Regardless, it's still hit earth with enough energy to give us all the power we need. I don't care to argue about power anymore. It won't matter in 4 months or so anyway.
@AGeekWithAShotgun No, a big ass space object that is inbound. We're literally going to be toast. Major pole shift coming due to it. Planet X/Nibiru/Comet Elenin is coming. ELENIN= Extinction Level Event Nibiru/Nemesis Is Near. It's Judgement time!

Also, Comet Elenin is not directly on course to Earth. It's gonna miss Earth by 21 million miles, and it will have no effect on Earth. "The effects of the comet on Earth at closest approach will be as inconsequential as that of a mosquito slamming head-on into an ocean-going supertanker."

To add to what I said... If heat could be magically generated, the world's energy problems would be solved. Again, it must come from somewhere. The laws of thermodynamics say that energy cannot be created or destroyed, only changed in form. So, what you have with nuclear plants is uranium---> chain reactions ---> heat ---> boiling water ----> steam -----> kinetic energy from the turbines -----> electricity. e=mc^2 explains nuclear reactors.
@andresviveros Because if you split atoms you can get ALOT more heat and when you boil water with kettles, you need coal or something, wich is more expensive then uranium and causes unhealthy smoke.
Dude, the water has to be boiled. What boils water? Heat. Ok, so what generates heat? The heat has to come from somewhere. You can get it by burning stuff like coal, but that's not as efficient as nuclear, which can take a very small amount of matter and convert it to energy. So, that's how it works basically.
@DMulisha13 The energy is created when the heat coming from the nuclear reaction heats up water and directs it towards a turbine. This turbine turns and generates electricity to power things. Hopefully that helped. Also sorry if someone else already answered.
@KnightsofthefallenGu thx man, and now i have another question....why do they use radioactive material? (uranium and such)...can't you achieve the same with just fire in a control way...that would be much easier and less explosive....??
@DMulisha13 The reason they use Radioactive material is because it is a lot more eco friendly and renuable than using fire to boil the water. Think if they did use the fire what would they need to produce that flame?
@KnightsofthefallenGu ohh true true..never thought of that...thx man fro making it clear..one last question...but even if Radioactive material is eco friendly...it can produce some serious damage if miss-used...tis there another way to have the same solution (steam) and not having to worry about the rads become to unstable or too high?
@DMulisha13 If you are talking about Radioactive material then. To make it safer the power plant could be built in an area that isnt prone to earthquakes or other natural disasters an example where this wasnt done would be Japan. In fairness though the Japanese have been know for their skill in making buildings earthquake proof. Secondly the Power plant itself could be made to witstand more abuse and to be safer and lastly the Power plant cold be build in an isolated are or somewhere far from
@KnightsofthefallenGu other places. The problem with the last one is workers having to get there though.
If you are asking about ways other than nuclear to produce the steam that is eco friendly then, i honestly dont know, and if i did i may be a very rich person. So sorry, but i hope i helped you. :)
D2O? Are you kidding me? D isn't even in the Periodic table of Elements. And heavy water doesn't even exist, all except what compounds you add to water, like disolvents such as NaHCO3, salt. Or anything anhydrous.
@Snystrom2 - D20 does exist and it is nick named "heavy water". T30 also exists and it is nicknamed "super heavy water". D stands for deuterium which is a stable isotope of hydrogen (the hydrogen atom has 1 proton and one neutron). T stands for tritium which is an unstable isotope of hydrogen ( hydrogen has 1 proton and 2 neutrons). Deuterium reacts with oxygen to form D20. D20 is most found deep deep deep in our oceans. T20 is rare because tritium is rare and has a half life of 12 years.
I hate it when liberals use nuclear power plants as propaganda for global warming. If they knew so much about science they should know that those are cooling towers with just steak coming out of them , not pollution
Water is very difficult to neutron activate, so effectively the only radioactivity is in dissolved salts or particulates. Filtering and deionizing is important.
@puncheex What do you mean by neutron activate? Water will hold radiation, but typically for only a short time, and it also decomposes easily upon irradiation.
@synapsekiller17: When a material is Irradiated with neutrons, a small fraction of the material's nuclei will absorb a neutron. In some cases, that will lead to the nuclei becoming radioactive. A good example is salt; normal sodium nuclei (Na23) absorbs a neutron and becomes intensely radioactive Na24, with a half life of 15 hours. In water, OTOH, the hydrogen nuclei have to absorb 2 neutrons to become unstable, and oxygen has to be hit three times....
... Since a neutron striking any particular nucleus is a very low probability event, water is considered to be immune from neutron activation. Alpha, beta and gamma radiation do not activate the materials they pass through, though they may destroy chemical bonds, so they cannot activate anything. Neutron activation is the only way top make an otherwise stable material radioactive, other than simply mixing or combining it with a radioactive isotope.
how long can uranium create extreme temperatures whilst constantly been bombarded by particles..how long before it burns out and cant sustain a reaction ?
@Fleetfox10: the fuel lasts for an amount of time determined by the power output and the size of he fuel load. The constant bombardment is not really a factor, except how it is the result of the rate at which the reactor is set at.
this is wrong in some way for one the water surrounding the reactor core is called heavy water which does not evaporate at the same temperature as normal water the heavy water is then pumped to through a pipe inside the normal water chamber witch them evaporates the normal water creating the turbine cycle but before the steam returns back into the water chamber it is sent into another chamber which cools the steam using cool lake water pumped through pipes in to the chamber and back out again.
@gazzersnipe: You described a pressurized heavy water reactor (PHWR). They can run on naturally occurring uranium (no enhancement required), and are more efficient than the light water reactor described. Heavy water is expensive, and refueling must occur more often. It uses 2 cycles and a heat exchanger to minimize the amount of HW that is needed.
@priony "the worst case if just overheat," - Can you name all the countries from Ukraine to Wales that had radioactive mess dropped on them from the Chernobyl disaster in 1986?
Simplfied, yes, but not a problem. The biggest problem is "...powers the turbines creating energy". The energy was created when the atoms split, apart from that "energy can neither be created nor destroyed" as we were taught at school.
This video is oversimplified and misleading. That IS NOT how nuclear power works exactly. While designs vary, in general, let me fix the mistakes: The primary water that passes through the reactor core NEVER turns to steam. That leads to a core meltdown. The primary water is heated up, and passes that heat energy on to secondary water in steam generators. The primary water NEVER comes in direct contact with the secondary water (which you see turn to steam in the cooling towers). Former Navy nuke
@synapsekiller17What? That is common knowledge that any high school physics student would be familiar with. Do you understand what is actually restricted info? Operating conditions: pressure, temperature, chemistry, etc. The fundamentals of reactor plant theory are not restricted.
Respond to this video... What? That is basic reactor plant theory that ANY high school physics student could know with a little reading. Do you know what restricted information is? Operating conditions: temps, depths, speed, pressures, chemistry, etc.
@utahpowhound You're totally right, plant construction is also restricted. Plus, my comment was meant as mostly a joke. I'm well aware of what restricted info is. Please don't tell me you were a wire rate...
@utahpowhound There is more than one design of reactor. The video is correct for a Boiling Water Reactor (it isn't a very good explanation though). What you are describing is a Pressurized Water Reactor.
@utahpowhound Actually, you're wrong. That is how a pressurized reactor works. This video demonstrates a boiling water reactor. This video shows both types of reactors:
What you describe is a pressurized water reactor. But this Video is about nuclear reactors in general and there are reactors who the steam is boiled directly by the reactor. This reactors are called boiling water reactor and are quite commmon.
See Wikipedia
But in some reactors the water for the steam turbines is boiled directly by the reactor core, for example the boiling water reactor.
i saw another video and it states that shows that the steam is not generated directly from the water in contact with the reactor core, using "boils law" the temperature and pressure are maintained so that the water that is in direct contact with the water dose not "flash" into steam it stays a very high pressure and temperature "supper heated" liquid. the heat transfer from the surface areas of the piping coils heats a TOTALLY separate course of uncontaminated water which is turned to steam
@HybridPineapple If the steam coming out of the towers was radioactive then all people around the tower would die. Steam can 't be radioactive unless mixed with radiation. Which would not happen in a nuclear power plant.
@HybridPineapple The steam isn't radioactive because the atoms in the water vapor (hydrogen and oxygen) aren't unstable. The steam comes out of the aptly named "Cooling Towers" because it needs to cool down, in order to turn back into water.
Cool video.. However its still incomplete. It didnt show how it pass the Nuclear Reactor to Steam Generator. Its impossible from control rods to produce steam :) lol
Boiling Water Reactors do boil water to steam. Pressurized Water Reactors have Steam generators. There are advantages to both. So it's not incomplete for that reason.

To add to what I said... If heat could be magically generated, the world's energy problems would be solved. Again, it must come from somewhere. The laws of thermodynamics say that energy cannot be created or destroyed, only changed in form. So, what you have with nuclear plants is uranium---> chain reactions ---> heat ---> boiling water ----> steam -----> kinetic energy from the turbines -----> electricity. e=mc^2 explains nuclear reactors.

@andresviveros what is going to power the kettles???

@andresviveros Because if you split atoms you can get ALOT more heat and when you boil water with kettles, you need coal or something, wich is more expensive then uranium and causes unhealthy smoke.

@andresviveros
Dude, the water has to be boiled. What boils water? Heat. Ok, so what generates heat? The heat has to come from somewhere. You can get it by burning stuff like coal, but that's not as efficient as nuclear, which can take a very small amount of matter and convert it to energy. So, that's how it works basically.

@DMulisha13 The energy is created when the heat coming from the nuclear reaction heats up water and directs it towards a turbine. This turbine turns and generates electricity to power things. Hopefully that helped. Also sorry if someone else already answered.
KnightsofthefallenGu 10 months ago
@KnightsofthefallenGu thx man, and now i have another question....why do they use radioactive material? (uranium and such)...can't you achieve the same with just fire in a control way...that would be much easier and less explosive....??
DMulisha13 10 months ago
@DMulisha13 The reason they use Radioactive material is because it is a lot more eco friendly and renuable than using fire to boil the water. Think if they did use the fire what would they need to produce that flame?
KnightsofthefallenGu 10 months ago
@KnightsofthefallenGu ohh true true..never thought of that...thx man fro making it clear..one last question...but even if Radioactive material is eco friendly...it can produce some serious damage if miss-used...tis there another way to have the same solution (steam) and not having to worry about the rads become to unstable or too high?
DMulisha13 10 months ago
@DMulisha13 If you are talking about Radioactive material then. To make it safer the power plant could be built in an area that isnt prone to earthquakes or other natural disasters an example where this wasnt done would be Japan. In fairness though the Japanese have been know for their skill in making buildings earthquake proof. Secondly the Power plant itself could be made to witstand more abuse and to be safer and lastly the Power plant cold be build in an isolated are or somewhere far from

D2O? Are you kidding me? D isn't even in the Periodic table of Elements. And heavy water doesn't even exist, all except what compounds you add to water, like disolvents such as NaHCO3, salt. Or anything anhydrous.
Snystrom2 10 months ago
@Snystrom2 - D20 does exist and it is nick named "heavy water". T30 also exists and it is nicknamed "super heavy water". D stands for deuterium which is a stable isotope of hydrogen (the hydrogen atom has 1 proton and one neutron). T stands for tritium which is an unstable isotope of hydrogen ( hydrogen has 1 proton and 2 neutrons). Deuterium reacts with oxygen to form D20. D20 is most found deep deep deep in our oceans. T20 is rare because tritium is rare and has a half life of 12 years.

Water is very difficult to neutron activate, so effectively the only radioactivity is in dissolved salts or particulates. Filtering and deionizing is important.

utahpowhound 1 year ago
@puncheex What do you mean by neutron activate? Water will hold radiation, but typically for only a short time, and it also decomposes easily upon irradiation.
synapsekiller17 1 year ago
@synapsekiller17: When a material is Irradiated with neutrons, a small fraction of the material's nuclei will absorb a neutron. In some cases, that will lead to the nuclei becoming radioactive. A good example is salt; normal sodium nuclei (Na23) absorbs a neutron and becomes intensely radioactive Na24, with a half life of 15 hours. In water, OTOH, the hydrogen nuclei have to absorb 2 neutrons to become unstable, and oxygen has to be hit three times....
puncheex 1 year ago
... Since a neutron striking any particular nucleus is a very low probability event, water is considered to be immune from neutron activation. Alpha, beta and gamma radiation do not activate the materials they pass through, though they may destroy chemical bonds, so they cannot activate anything. Neutron activation is the only way top make an otherwise stable material radioactive, other than simply mixing or combining it with a radioactive isotope.

@Fleetfox10: the fuel lasts for an amount of time determined by the power output and the size of he fuel load. The constant bombardment is not really a factor, except how it is the result of the rate at which the reactor is set at.

blue988emily 1 year ago
this is wrong in some way for one the water surrounding the reactor core is called heavy water which does not evaporate at the same temperature as normal water the heavy water is then pumped to through a pipe inside the normal water chamber witch them evaporates the normal water creating the turbine cycle but before the steam returns back into the water chamber it is sent into another chamber which cools the steam using cool lake water pumped through pipes in to the chamber and back out again.
gazzersnipe 1 year ago
@gazzersnipe: You described a pressurized heavy water reactor (PHWR). They can run on naturally occurring uranium (no enhancement required), and are more efficient than the light water reactor described. Heavy water is expensive, and refueling must occur more often. It uses 2 cycles and a heat exchanger to minimize the amount of HW that is needed.

Simplfied, yes, but not a problem. The biggest problem is "...powers the turbines creating energy". The energy was created when the atoms split, apart from that "energy can neither be created nor destroyed" as we were taught at school.

pyrioni 1 year ago
This video is oversimplified and misleading. That IS NOT how nuclear power works exactly. While designs vary, in general, let me fix the mistakes: The primary water that passes through the reactor core NEVER turns to steam. That leads to a core meltdown. The primary water is heated up, and passes that heat energy on to secondary water in steam generators. The primary water NEVER comes in direct contact with the secondary water (which you see turn to steam in the cooling towers). Former Navy nuke

What you describe is a pressurized water reactor. But this Video is about nuclear reactors in general and there are reactors who the steam is boiled directly by the reactor. This reactors are called boiling water reactor and are quite commmon.
See Wikipedia
But in some reactors the water for the steam turbines is boiled directly by the reactor core, for example the boiling water reactor.

i saw another video and it states that shows that the steam is not generated directly from the water in contact with the reactor core, using "boils law" the temperature and pressure are maintained so that the water that is in direct contact with the water dose not "flash" into steam it stays a very high pressure and temperature "supper heated" liquid. the heat transfer from the surface areas of the piping coils heats a TOTALLY separate course of uncontaminated water which is turned to steam

@HybridPineapple The steam isn't radioactive because the atoms in the water vapor (hydrogen and oxygen) aren't unstable. The steam comes out of the aptly named "Cooling Towers" because it needs to cool down, in order to turn back into water.
