Nuclear Power

 

o   The travelling wave concept for nuclear power.    This is in effect a fast breeder reactor using depleted U-238 as the primary fuel.   This in itself is not fertile,  but is transmuted into fertile Pu-239 by neutron bombardment.   The difference between this and a traditional fast breeder is that the fuel for say 100 years is loaded once and the nuclear reaction is sustained without the normal extraction and reprocessing of fuel

o   Refuelling of a Candu Reactor

o   Safety Systems in a Candu Reactor

o   Train Crash of Nuclear Flask
