write the basic principle of thermal power generator
Answers
Explanation:
A thermal power station works on the principle that heat is released by burning fuel which produces (working fluid) (steam) from water. The steam so produced runs the turbine coupled to generator which produces electrical energy
Almost two third of electricity requirement of the world is fulfilled by thermal power plants (or thermal power stations). In these power stations, steam is produced by burning some fossil fuel (e.g. coal) and then used to run a steam turbine. Thus, a thermal power station may sometimes called as a Steam Power Station. After the steam passes through the steam turbine, it is condensed in a condenser and again fed back into the boiler to become steam. This is known as ranking cycle. This article explains how electricity is generated in thermal power plants. As majority of thermal power plants use coal as their primary fuel, this article is focused on a coal fired thermal power plant.
