Nuclear fission is used to produce power in nuclear power plants. Atoms are split apart to form smaller atoms in nuclear fission, releasing energy. Nuclear reactors and the Rankine cycle are used to carry out this process. This process uses a reactor and the Rankine cycle to generate heat. The reactor converts water into steam, which spins a turbine and generator. Nuclear power plants, which use uranium as a fuel to generate electricity, are part of this industry. The heat generated by a nuclear reactor core's burning is used to boil water into steam, transforming the stains on a hot engine. Turbine spots rotate, driving generators that produce electricity. Nuclear power plants either use water from lakes, rivers, or oceans to cool the water and get into it in a separate building at the power plant known as a cooling tower, or they use water from lakes, rivers, or oceans. After that, the distilled water is used to generate steam.
