In nuclear engineering, a neutron moderator is a medium that reduces the speed of fast neutrons. Thereby turning them into thermal neutrons capable of sustaining a nuclear chain reaction involving uranium-235.0 we don't need moderator Where reactor operation is designed with fast neutrons.

In nuclear engineer to used modulator.

What are you used to modulator heavy vehicle?

This is mechanical department. Have are you commercial vehicle.

In this type of the reaction the we already required the high speed of the reaction so we doesn't need of any moderator.
