Steam Power Plant
A power plant is assembly of systems or subsystems to generate electricity, i.e., power with economy and
requirements. The power plant itself must be useful economically and environmental friendly to the
society. The present book is oriented to conventional as well as non-conventional energy generation. While
the stress is on energy efficient system regards conventional power systems viz., to increase the systemd
conversion efficiency the supreme goal is to develop, design, and manufacturer the non-conventional
power generating systems in coming decades preferably after 2050 AD which are conducive to society as
well as having feasible energy conversion efficiency and non-friendly to pollution, keeping in view the
pollution act. The subject as a whole can be also stated as modern power plants for power viz electricity
generation in 21st century. The word modern means pertaining to time. At present due to energy crisis the
first goal is to conserve energy for future while the second step is todevelop alternative energy systems
including direct energy conversion devices, with the devotion, dedication and determination remembering
the phrase, “Delve and Delve Again till wade into”.
CLASSIFICATION OF POWER PLANTS
Power Plant
1. Conventional
- Steam Engines Power Plants
- S team Turbine Power Plants
- Diesel Power Plants
- Gas Turbine Power Plants
- Hydro-Electric Power Plants
- Nuclear Power Plants Thermoelectric Generator
2. Non-conventional
Thermoelectric generator
Fuel-cells Power Plants
Photovoltaic solar cells Power S ystem
MHD Power Plants
Fussion Reactor N PP Power S y stem
Biogas, Biomass Energy Power sy stem
Geothermal Energy
Wind Energy Power System
Ocean Thermal energy conversion (OTEC)
Wave and Tidal Wave
Energ y Plantation Scheme
A power plant may be defined as a machine or assembly of equipment that generates and delivers a flow of
mechanical or electrical energy. The main equipment for the generation of electric power is generator.
When coupling it to a prime mover runs the generator, the electricity is generated. The type of prime move
determines, the type of power plants. The major power plants, which are discussed in this are:
1. Steam power plant
2. Diesel power plant
3. Gas turbine power plant
4. Nuclear power plant
5. Hydro electric power plant
The Steam Power Plant, Diesel Power Plant, Gas Turbine Power Plant and Nuclear Power Plants
are called THERMAL POWER PLANT, because these convert heat into electric energy.
