The way a reactor works is in a nuclear power plant water is turned into steam‚ which drives turbine generators to produce electricity.

Reactors make fissions reactions in uranium fuel‚ which is controlled by moderators and neutron poisons. What are breeder reactors? A nuclear reactor the creates fissile
