Gas cooling as compared to water cooling of nuclear reactors___________________?

Correct answer: D. None of these

  • A. Cannot attain a high temperature
  • B. Is more efficient as gas has a higher specific heat
  • C. Can produce only saturated steam for feeding to power turbine
  • D. None of these

Explanation

Gas-cooled reactors can reach high coolant temperatures and may produce superheated rather than only saturated steam, while gases generally have lower specific heat than water. Therefore none of the listed statements is correct.
