1. STEAM PROYECT AFRICA 3rd grade

2. A NUCLEAR PLANT IS MADE OF 3 PRINCIPAL THINGS ReactorTurbines & condenser Cooling tower

3. REACTOR In a nuclear reactor, fuel rods full of uranium pellets that are placed in water. In a nuclear reactor, fuel rods full of uranium pellets that are placed in water. Most nuclear power plants use uranium as fuel because its atoms are easly split apart. That produces alot of energy!

Uranium is a metal found in rocks all over the world.

4. With that heat the steam generator heats the water until it evaporates. With that heat the steam generator heats the water until it evaporates. With the water vapor preassure the turbine With the water vapor preassure the turbine moves, which turns a generator that way we can change heat energy into mechanical energy. moves, which turns a generator that way we can change heat energy into mechanical energy.

5. Then an alternator machine changes mechanical energy into electricity. Then an alternator machine changes mechanical energy into electricity. Then the power tranformer sends electicity to the electrical web. Then the power tranformer sends electicity to the electrical web.

6. The steam cools back into water, which can then be used over again. At some nuclear power plant s, extra heat is released from a cooling tower.

Because nuclear power plants don´t burn fossil fuels, they don´t produce greenhouse gases. Because nuclear power plants don´t burn fossil fuels, they don´t produce greenhouse gases.

7. In addition, nuclear power plants produce waste that is radioactive. This waste has to be handled and disposed of according to special regulations designed to protect people and the inviroment.
