Nuclear Energy: An Introduction to the Concepts and Systems of Modern Power Generation
"Nuclear energy is the energy contained within the nucleus of an atom, released through processes that alter atomic structure, primarily nuclear fission. In modern power systems, this energy is harnessed to produce heat, which generates steam to drive turbines for large-scale electricity production. It remains a cornerstone of carbon-free baseload power, providing a significant portion of the world's non-fossil fuel energy. To understand nuclear energy as a system, one must look beyond the simple splitting of an atom. It is an integrated framework involving quantum physics, material science, thermal hydraulics, and complex mechanical engineeri..."
