NUCLAIRE POWER PLANTS
Nuclear energy must review the heat/electricity conversion part, over a hundred years old. It transforms less than 30% of the heat produced into electricity; it must quit the steam turbines.
The steam should not spin the turbine directly; it must transmit its pressure to a liquid whose liquid (cold water) turns a hydraulic turbine; with this, the electricity in line is more than double, at equal heat.
By relying on power plants with reactors, we see a safety technology of efficiency comparable to that of aviation, even exceeding its A.
Amazing and surprising! See the primary hot water outlet supply a steam system dating from the end of the nineteen beginning of the XXth century B.
The steam is a weak motion transmitter, due to its weight, around 1/200 regarding liquid/water, and the liquid is much better for this task.
I propose to breakout element (B); replace it with (C) multiply by more than two the Electricity output to equal heat.
Once the vapor pressure (compresses) the fluid, the following results are out of the thermodynamic laws related to the hydrothermal concepts; the yield of around 100%.
The costs of nuclear into MWH output shall be divided by near three.
Manufacturing, installation, and development are cleaner, reliable, and less expensive than steam/turbine methods.
Here is a plan which facilitates adaptability to existing reactors.
The steam outlet of the circuit (A) is unchanged, behaves like a turbine, the heat exchanger (1) absorbs heat and condenses the steam with derisory losses; the liquid returns to the boiler through the pump (b), which is similar to pump (a), deficient duty.
With that, the Electricity output might be multiplied by around three.
