Difference between CANDU reactor and Thermal power station

CANDU reactor vs. Thermal power station

The CANDU (Canada Deuterium Uranium) is a Canadian pressurized heavy-water reactor design used to generate electric power. A thermal power station is a type of power station in which heat energy is converted to electrical energy.

Similarities between CANDU reactor and Thermal power station

CANDU reactor and Thermal power station have 11 things in common (in Unionpedia): Carbon dioxide, Electric generator, Heat exchanger, Hydrogen, Natural gas, Pressure vessel, Pressurized water reactor, Rankine cycle, Steam generator (nuclear power), Turbine, Watt.

Rankine cycle

The Rankine cycle is an idealized thermodynamic cycle describing the process by which certain heat engines, such as steam turbines or reciprocating steam engines, allow mechanical work to be extracted from a fluid as it moves between a heat source and heat sink.
