Funny how nuclear energy is just a fancy version of steam power lol, i feel cheated!

It 100% is steam power. It just using a more expensive and more efficient fuel source. This is how it was explained in the submarine service when describing how it provides power and propulsion, “Hot rock make steam, steam make go.”

the majority of power generation is just variations on boiling water to make steam to spin a turbine.

My submarine didn’t have a cooling tower. If you’re already using the river, why not skip the cooling tower?

If it is not a big enough body of water you do not want to discharge hot water into it because it is not good for the environment and aquatic life

I’ve ever understood why they dont put the hot water back through the system rather than heating from cold again

The water that is cooled by the tower doesn't actually go into the reactor. It is pumped to a tank to surround a convoluted pipe that has hot steam in it so the steam inside the pipe system can condense to liquid water which is actually trapped inside the reactor and doesn't evaporate or anything. They basically use water to cool more water inside pipes

If it’s not a big enough body of water you do not want to discharge hot water back into it because it will harm the environment and aquatic life edit power plants that are built around the oceans and the Great Lakes discharge back into the source because it will not have a inverse effect on the body of water

why not just just put more turbines in the tower to capture the rising energy🤔 edit: the energy from mass amouts of steam rising

The housing itself could be re-fitted to generate enough energy without the uranium because of the resonance and size of the cavity as well as tall enough and heavy enough on ita own to provide energy. There's no turbine in the cooling tower, which proves that the engineers are just wasting their time and half-assed to emplore you to believe there isn't enough to go around.

One could imagine the heated water being used to heat homes and provide them hot water, at least for moderately to densely populated regions. But the infrastructure would need to be put in place.
