light water reactor

基本解释

The power density is about a factor of ten lower than in the light water reactor.
功率密度这个因素要比,轻水反应堆低10倍。
"No Chernobyl is possible at a light water reactor. Loss of coolant means a temperature rise, but it also will stop the reaction, " he said.
“这个核电站没有像契尔诺贝利核电站那样的反应堆，冷却剂的流失意味着温度的上升，但是，这也会停止核电站的运行，”教授说道。
North Korea has resumed work on a light water reactor that could be used to support its nuclear programme after 'months of inactivity', a United States institute says.
美国一家机构称，“安静数月后”，朝鲜重新开始建设轻水反应堆，为以后的核计划提供支持。

轻水堆
MOX stands for "Mixed-Oxide Fuel", which is a nuclear fuel made by plutonium mixed with uranium. The utilization of MOX fuel in light water reactor is the important direction in the development of light water reactor fuel.
“MOX”代表混合氧化铀钚燃料，是一种可以充分利用钚元素的新型核燃料，代表了轻水堆核燃料发展的趋势之一，其优点是可以节省铀资源和消耗核燃料循环中产生的钚。
