Which of the following is a low power (30 kW) research reactor fuelled by uranium-233?
Which of the following is a low power (30 kW) research reactor fuelled by uranium-233?
निम्नलिखित में से कौन – सा विकल्प, युरेनियम – 233 द्वारा चालित एक निम्न शक्ति (30 किलोवाट) वाला अनुसंधान रिएक्टर है?
Detailed Solution & Logic
KAMINI/ कामिनी
KAMINI stands for Kalpakkam Mini Reactor.
It is a low power research reactor located at the Indira Gandhi Centre for Atomic Research (IGCAR), Kalpakkam, Tamil Nadu.
Power Output: 30 kW (thermal).
Fuel: Uranium-233, which is bred from thorium — making it unique as the world’s only reactor using U-233 fuel.
Purpose:
Neutron radiography.
Research in reactor physics.
Testing materials and instruments.
Other Options (for clarity)
MAITRI → An Indian Antarctic research station, not a reactor.
PRANASH → A tactical surface-to-surface missile developed by DRDO.
SHAURYA → A canister-launched hypersonic missile developed by DRDO.
Key Point:
Only KAMINI is a 30 kW research reactor fuelled by Uranium-233
