Pump used for the transportation of molten sodium in a fast breader reactor is a/an __________ pump?
Correct answer: C. Electromagnetic
- A. Reciprocating
- B. Plunger
- C. Electromagnetic
- D. Gear
Explanation
Molten sodium in a fast breeder reactor can be transported using an electromagnetic pump, which moves the electrically conducting liquid by electromagnetic force and avoids mechanical seals or immersed moving parts.
