Palo Verde Nuclear Generating Station

OverviewDescriptionSecuritySafety concernsHistorySeismic riskSurrounding populationSee also

The Palo Verde Generating Station is located on 4,000 acres (1,600 ha) of land, and it consists of three pressurized water reactors, each with an original capacity to produce 1.27 GW of electric power. After a power up-rate, each reactor is able to produce 1.4 GW of electric power. The usual power production capacity is about 70 to 95 percent of this. This nuclear power plant is a major source of electric power for the densely populated parts of Southern Arizona and Southern California

Physics

Nuclear power plants can produce plutonium for weapons, so international inspectors would like a system that could tell from the outside whether material has been removed from a reactor. In Physical Review Letters, researchers describe a system that could monitor the state of the reactor core by detecting the antineutrinos it emits. The system

Seaborg technologies ApS—compact molten salt reactor power

The compact molten salt reactor (CMSR), under development by Seaborg, is a small modular reactor (SMR) in which the fuel, which also functions as the primary coolant, is molten fluoride salt.The CMSR is integrated into a floating non-self-propelled power barge (covering the phase to decommissioning lifecycle). The CMSR is a fundamentally different

Observation of Reactor Antineutrinos with a Rapidly Deployable

We deploy a small 80 kg antineutrino detector, called MiniCHANDLER, based on a solid plastic scintillator, for nearly three months at a distance of 25 m from a 2.9 GW thermal-power-reactor core at the North Anna Nuclear Generating Station. We report the detection of an antineutrino signal resulting from inverse beta decay at $5.5ensuremath{sigma}$

Obninsk Nuclear Power Plant

Obninsk Nuclear Power Plant (Russian: Обнинская АЭС, romanized: Obninskaja AES; pronunciation ⓘ) was built in the "Science City" of Obninsk, [1] Kaluga Oblast, about 110 km (68 mi) southwest of Moscow, Soviet Union nnected to the power grid in June 1954, Obninsk was the first grid-connected nuclear power plant in the world, [2] i.e. the first nuclear reactor that

Reactors as a Source of Antineutrinos: Effects of Fuel

In a typical light water reactor (LWR) on the order of 1027 antineutrinos are emitted each day. A ton-scale detector placed ˘25 m from the reactor core can register as many as ˘5000 antineutrino events per day, providing information about the instantaneous relative reactor power and the gradual change in core-wide effective fuel burnup.

reactor coolant system (RCS) at 320 degrees F temperature and 600 psia pressure. Initial criticality was achieved at 0145 on May 25, 1985. Low power reactor physics tests were conducted using APS Procedure 72PY-1RX30, Low Power Physics Test, Revision 0, dated May 22, 1985. Initial low power physics tests were conducted at RCS temperature /

Why Reactors are used in Power Systems and their Types

Reactive Power Compensation: Power systems consist of both active power (real power) and reactive power. Reactive power doesn''t perform useful work, but it''s necessary for maintaining voltage levels and ensuring the proper functioning of the power system. Reactors can be used to provide reactive power support by either absorbing (capacitive

Harmonic Filter Reactors

Harmonic Filter Reactors. Harmonic filter reactors, also known as harmonic trap reactors, are inductors used in the filtering of harmonics in a power system with capacitors to prevent specific line frequencies from flowing back to the power source. These harmonics are typically caused by non-linear devices in the power system.

Neutrino-detector design for safeguarding small modular reactors

Nuclear reactors have long been a favored source for antineutrino measurements for estimates of power and burnup. With appropriate detector parameters and background rejection, an estimate of the reactor power can be derived from the measured antineutrino event rate. Antineutrino detectors are potentially attractive as a safeguards technology that can

Inertial-Confinement Fusion without Lasers

There are many approaches to nuclear-fusion reactors, but one of the main strategies is the inertial-confinement fusion pursued by the NIF. The basic elements of inertial confinement are a pea-sized fuel capsule (typically a mixture of the hydrogen isotopes, deuterium and tritium) and a means for rapidly compressing and heating this fuel.
