What happens here when electricity is generated?

In nuclear power generation, water in the reactor is boiled using the thermal energy generated from the nuclear fission of Uranium.
The high temperature and highly pressurized steam that is produced turns a turbine that generates electricity.
In Unit 5, steam pressure was approximately 7Mpa and steam temperature was approximately 286 degrees Celsius in the Reactor Pressure Vessel (RPV) when generating electricity.
