Jun 20, 2017 · A boiling water reactor (BWR ) is a type of nuclear reactor widely used in nuclear power plants around the world, being the second most common after the pressurized water reactor (PWR).

eactors, also known as BWRs. Boiling water reactors are the simpler of the two designs, with a closed, single loop system creating steam and then. cooling it to be used again. In a BWR, the water is …

BWR consists of a reactor, which accommodates the fuel rods. Light water is pumped through the vessel and absorbs heat, which is released in the reactor core during the nuclear fission reaction.
