Pressurized light-water reactor

Uranium Enrichment. Enrichment of uranium-235, from 0.711 percent as present in natural uranium, is essential to the economical operation of light water reactors where the fuel life is a function of the enrichment. With approximately 4.95 percent U-235 fuel, the pressurized light water reactors... [Pg.965]

But when the United States discovered in September that the Soviet Union had detonated its first atomic device the previous month, a renewed emphasis on military weapons and military reactor applications kept the development of civilian power reactors consigned to a low priority. The subsequent atomic-arms race also helped establish a preference among various reactor designs by giving an edge to Rickover s pressurized-light-water reactor for submarine propulsion. ... [Pg.17]

The pressurized-light-water reactor constructed at Shippingport employed ordinary water as both moderator and coolant and was pressurized to keep the coolant stream from boiling. The reactor coolant... [Pg.21]
