pressurized water reactor

• 一种核反应堆，其中水在高压下保持液态而不沸腾，从而将堆芯热量传递给蒸汽发生器。它是世界上最常见的核动力反应堆类型。

A type of nuclear reactor in which water is kept under high pressure to prevent it from boiling, allowing it to transfer heat from the reactor core to a steam generator. It is the most common type of nuclear power reactor worldwide.

1. Nuclear reactor typeC2formal

   A type of nuclear reactor in which the water used as a coolant and moderator is kept under high pressure to prevent it from boiling, allowing it to transfer heat efficiently to a secondary steam circuit.

   • Pressurized water reactors are the most common type of nuclear reactor used worldwide.
   • The primary loop of a pressurized water reactor operates at over 150 atmospheres of pressure.
   • Engineers monitor the coolant temperature in the pressurized water reactor to ensure safe operation.
