Question

what is hydroelectric power plant​

Answer 1

Explanation:

In the generation of hydroelectric power, water is collected or stored at a higher

elevation and led downward through large pipes or tunnels (penstocks) to a lower

elevation; the difference in these two elevations is known as the head. At the end of its

passage down the pipes, the falling water causes turbines to rotate. The turbines

in turn drive generators, which convert the turbines’ mechanical energy into electricity.

Transformers are then used to convert the alternating voltage suitable for the

generators to a higher voltage suitable for long-distance transmission. The structure

that houses the turbines and generators, and into which the pipes or penstocks feed, is

called the powerhouse.

Answer 2

Hydroelectric Power Plant

A plant in which the water stored in dam is used to generate electricity is called hydroelectric power plant.

This plants are directly connected to the construction of dams

=》 Working :- when water stored in dam is released the potential energy of water converts into kinetic energy and turns the turbine connected to a generator.
