    •  
    • When the burner of a stovetop is very hot, it is a source of heat energy. Anything placed onto the stovetop and warmed, whether a pot of tea or a skillet for frying eggs, also become sources of heat energy.

The heat splits the atoms making heat energy and neutrons.

    Control rods, can control the speed of the chain reaction, by soaking up neutrons.

    Water is pumped through the reactor to collect the heat energy that the chain reaction produces. It constantly flows around a closed loop linking the reactor with a heat exchanger.

    Water goes through 'reactors' to collect the heat energy. It goes on a continuos loop.

    In the heat exchanger, the heated up water gets rid of the heat energy by cooler water, hence turning in to steam.

    The steam created in the heat exchanger, is now passed through a turbine, the steam pushes the turbines and they rotate quickly.

    The turbine is connected to the electricity generator causing it to ratate too.

    The generator then creates electricity.
