Try to beat your score by taking on day 2 or try the Brain Challenge to boost your points. In one day, a nuclear power station would typically use around 118kg of nuclear fuel. To run a coal power station, on the other hand, you'd need 14,000,000kg of coal!
This kinetics simulator solves the point kinetics equation (PKE) on a webserver in the background. This is a very simple simulation and does not (yet) include any of the thermal feedback mechanisms inherent in any high-power chain reactor.
Explore the principles of nuclear fission with PhET's interactive simulation, designed for an engaging learning experience in science.
Control energy production in a nuclear reactor! (Previously part of the Nuclear Physics simulation - now there are separate Alpha Decay and Nuclear Fission sims.) Start a chain reaction, or introduce non-radioactive isotopes to prevent one.
Nuclear Reactor Simulator. by the Dalton Nuclear Institute of the University of Manchester. Take control of a nuclear reactor and manage coolant pumps, control rods, and steam output to change power output.
These simulators provide efficient hands-on learning of the physics and engineering designs of various reactor types. The simulators operate on personal computers and are provided for a broad audience of technical and non-technical professionals, students and instructors as an introductory educational tool.
This is a open-source web-based real-time nuclear reactor simulator for education, demonstration, and fun. Users are presented a control panel with instruments and control as well as a live schematic diagram of the plant indicating basic status of the core, pumps, heat exchangers, coolant flow, and so on.
