To find: Amount of water needed per hour to run 1000 MW reactor.
Answer to Problem 33P
Explanation of Solution
Given data:
Power plant output,
Reactor efficiency,
Formula used:
Power output,
Calculation:
Water contain two hydrogen molecule, and each hydrogen atom contain 0.000115 d’s
Since, efficiency is 30%, the total power of
If the reaction of 4 deuterons, there would be a total of
Amount of water needed for
Conclusion:
Amount of water required to run the plant is
