Solved: A typical nuclear reactor generates 1000 MW (1000
Chapter 19, Problem 19.83(choose chapter or problem)
A typical nuclear reactor generates 1000 MW (1000 MJ/s) of electrical energy. In doing so, it produces 2000 MW of waste heat that must be removed from the reactor to keep it from melting down. Many reactors are sited next to large bodies of water so that they can use the water for cooling. Consider a reactor where the intake water is at 18C. State regulations limit the temperature of the output water to 30C so as not to harm aquatic organisms. How many liters of cooling water have to be pumped through the reactor each minute?
