Based on the temperatures that were standard in the reactor plant I used to work at, efficiency (of the steam plant alone), was around 35% in an ideal situation. (let n represent Carnot Efficiency) n = [ (Th - Tc) / Th ] * 100% n = [ (449.8K - 289.8K) / 449.8K ]* 100% = 35% I'm going to do...

Recently, I have been looking into more effective methods of harnessing nuclear power and making an attempt to move away from conventional steam plants and the use of turbines, thus reducing heat losses, maintenance and construction costs, etc. That being said, my current concept uses a...

Hello everyone, I am currently working on a project to design a more efficient method of electricity production in the nuclear industry. I haven't been able to find anything online (and chemistry isn't exactly my strong suit most of the time), but I wanted to know if anyone knows of a liquid or...
