Energia nuclear: um estudo comparativo atual

Abstract

There was used bibliography method review in this work. First, was given to the reader a historic context of how nuclear energy processes were discovered as it’s main scientists and meaningful articles oublished at the time it has been developed this especific knowledge as well. Later, it was explained about what is nuclear fission and fusion, the occurence criterial and physical processes associated to them. Also, it was mentioned the best model explanation. In the scope of reactors were presented the minimum requirements for a chain reaction appearance, reaching critically and iginition. How electric energy is and could be generated by a PWR plant and the ways of detention used in fusion studies were nominated too. Ultimately, this study ends by displaying current and part data on energy production in fission reactors and the most relevant experiments and achievements accomplished to bring of iginition and fusion reactors.
