Why The Thermal Efficiency Of The Steam Power Plant Is Quite Low? |
|
Answer» In Steam POWER station, more than 50% of the total heat of combustion is lost as heat rejected to the condenser and the loss is UNAVOIDABLE as the heat energy cannot be CONVERTED in to mechanical energy with out a drop in temperature. Steam in the condenser is at lowest temperature. This is the reason that the thermal efficiency of the power plant is quite low.
