Simple and clear presentation of how things work! Amazing how a nuclear plant uses all the same principles of heat exchange, just as in conventional power plants, just the fuel is different.
5:10 "Heavy water slows down the speed of neutrons more than light water simply because it is heavier" ... I thought that light water is a better moderator in terms of elastic scattering, but the hydrogen tends to absorb more neutrons, making the chain reaction more difficult (impossible?) to achieve.
Agreed. Fantastic videos! ..but that quoted excerpt from the video is wrong and they ought to change it. I was going to make the same comment. Hydrogen and *lighter* elements are better moderators in theory but the hydrogen in light water will absorb some neutrons and eat some reactivity (i.e. poorer neutron economy). That's why U enrichment is required for LWRs but not necessarily for HWRs.

Probably the best informative video on TH-cam about nuclear plants. Well done!
Fantastic video for introduction to NPP
Hi, realy awesome video and presentation, searched long time ..found it.. thanks a lot..sir

Supremely good relevant instruction. Thank you.
Very well done. Concise, informative, unambiguous
EXCELLENT .......💯% PROTECTION LEVEL IS GREATEST BECAUSE WE ARE ENGINEERS FIRST......
very well explanation.
10:04 where's the steam come from? Is it come from steam generato
