INTRODUCTION
One of the most scariest thing about nuclear power is when something goes wrong or an accident occurs.Radiation is released into the environment and all living things get afeected.This kind of nuclear disaster is often termed as nuclear explosion.
steams and debris that would affect nearby towns and population centres.In genral,this meltdown occurs if the reactor losses its coolant. Without coolant the temperature will rise like anything resulting in the meltdown scenario as explained above.
PLACE
Tomsk,Russia. Ishikawa prefecture,Japan. Ibaraki prefecture,Japan. Paks,Hungary. Sellafield,UK. Braidwood,USA. Erwin,USA. Fukushima 1,Japan. Fukushima 2,Japan.
Russia has supported life-time supply of low enriched uranium for kudankulam nuclear project. Both the planned reactors are expected to have a device for picking up cooling,and localizing the core melt that is located under the body of the reactor,the so called molten core reactor
NUCLAR FISSION
CORE CATCHER
The Kudankulam design has another important feature a core catcher. In the event of an extreme accident and were the molten nuclear fuel to breach the reactor pressure vessel, it falls on to a matrix containing a large amount of neutron-absorbing substances (such as boron). Once mixed with this material, the nuclear fuel is rendered incapable of starting a nuclear chain reaction. Only the latest design of nuclear power units have this safety back-up system.
Homi jehangir bhabha,was an Indian nuclear physicist and the chief of Indian atomic energy program.As a scientist he is remembered for deriving a correct expression for the probability of scattering positrons by electrons,known as Bhabha scattering.For his significant contributions to the development of atomic energy in India,he is called as the father of Indias nuclear program.
DOs
