Thermal power plant |
| Answer» Solution :In thermal power plant the turbines are rotated using steam. Here the coal is burnt. The heat energy liberated from this burning is used to heat the WATER in the boiler. This water PRODUCES steam of very high temperature and pressure. The kinetic energy in the steam rotates the turbines. The rotation of tubines produces itsown mechanical kinetic energy. The generators connected to tubines produce electrical energy. Thestem is CONDENSED in a condenser and converted back into water. In this way in thermal power plant, thermal energy to kinetic enerhgy, kinetic energy into mechancal energy and mechanical energy to electrical energy, are the CONVERSIONS that take PLACE. | |
