Introduction to thermal power plant:

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,
equipments and they are arranged in a definite manner.
