Introduction to thermal power plant

Image
Electricity is everywhere but most of the people does not know how it is produced. Let's introduce about the power generation factory “the thermal power plant”.  Thermal power plant are designed to produce power in the form of voltage and current by using thermal energy. The power is generated by driving a large electrical generator (also called turbo-generator). This generator is driven by a shaft coupled turbine which rotates by using force of steam. Hence, in order to produce the electrical power, our primary concern is to produce steam from water by using thermal energy. This thermal energy is produced by burning fuel (mostly fossil fuels are used) to produce a sufficient amount of heat to generate steam from water. In thermal power plant, there are a number of process are done such as fuel firing, boiling of water, generation of steam, rotation of turbine, generation of voltage etc. These process  need a number of parts, equipment and they are arranged in a definite manner.
