  2. GE BWR - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/GE_BWR

    Schematic GE BWR inside a Mark I containment. General Electric's BWR product line of boiling water reactors represents the designs of a relatively large (~18%) [1] percentage of the commercial fission reactors around the world. The progenitor of the BWR line was the 5 MW Vallecitos Boiling Water Reactor (VBWR), brought online in October 1957.

  3. Boiling water reactor safety systems - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Boiling_water_reactor...

    The Reactor Protection System (RPS) is a system, computerized in later BWR models, that is designed to automatically, rapidly, and completely shut down and make safe the Nuclear Steam Supply System (NSSS – the reactor pressure vessel, pumps, and water/steam piping within the containment) if some event occurs that could result in the reactor entering an unsafe operating condition.

  4. Boiling water reactor - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Boiling_water_reactor

    A boiling water reactor (BWR) is a type of nuclear reactor used for the generation of electrical power. It is the second most common type of electricity-generating nuclear reactor after the pressurized water reactor (PWR). BWR are thermal neutron reactors, where water is thus used both as a coolant and as a moderator, slowing down

  5. Grand Gulf Nuclear Station - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Grand_Gulf_Nuclear_Station

    Grand Gulf Nuclear Station is a nuclear power station with one operational GE BWR reactor (General Electric boiling water reactor). It lies on a 2,100 acres (850 ha) site near Port Gibson, Mississippi. The site is wooded and contains two lakes. The plant has a 520-foot natural draft cooling tower. As of January 2023, the plant employs 675 people.

  6. Dresden Generating Station - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dresden_Generating_Station

    The BWR at GE's Vallecitos Nuclear Center and the AEC's BORAX experiments provided research data and operator training for Dresden. The core contained 488 fuel subassemblies, 80 control rods, and 8 instrument nozzles. Each subassembly contained 36 fuel rods in a Zircaloy-2 channel. The fuel was uranium dioxide clad in Zircaloy-2 tube. The core ...

  7. Economic Simplified Boiling Water Reactor - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Economic_Simplified...

    The Economic Simplified Boiling Water Reactor (ESBWR) is a passively safe generation III+ reactor design derived from its predecessor, the Simplified Boiling Water Reactor (SBWR) and from the Advanced Boiling Water Reactor (ABWR). All are designs by GE Hitachi Nuclear Energy (GEH), and are based on previous Boiling Water Reactor designs.

  9. Containment building - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Containment_building

    A BWR's containment consists of a drywell, where the reactor and associated cooling equipment is located, and a wetwell. The drywell is much smaller than a PWR containment and plays a larger role. During the theoretical leakage design basis accident, the reactor coolant flashes to steam in the drywell, pressurizing it rapidly.
