In a nuclear reactor, heat is transferred from the reactor core to the point where it is to be
utilised, by circulating liquid metals e.g. sodium, lithium, sodium–potassium alloys.
Conventional pumps can’t be used in these situations as they would melt so “Magnetic
pumps” are used there with an additional benefit is that there are no mechanical parts so
there is no wear and tear due to friction.
