The electric power generated by a single average size nuclear reactor block is typically between 400 and 800 MW. The fission of one 2350 nucleus generates 185.0 MeV energy on average. Consider a 670.0 MW reactor for a one year period. The reactor is loaded with Uranium fuel containing 3.50 percent of 235U? Assume that the overall thermodynamic efficiency of converting heat to electric energy at this power plant is 36.0 percent. What is the total amount of electric energy generated by the reactor block in one year? Submit Answer Tries 0/12 What is the total amount of heat produced by the reactor block in one year? Submit Answer Tries 0/12 How many Uranium fissions produced this amount of heat? Submit Answer Tries 0/12 At least how much Uranium fuel needs to be loaded into the reactor for a one year long run? Submit Answer Tries 0/12
