How Power plant works-Rankine Cycle & Its Practical use
Introduction-How Thermal Power Plant Works? In Thermal power plants, the fuel (coal) is burnt to produce heat energy and this energy is later converted to electrical energy through a series of interlinked processes. It uses water as the working medium to first absorb heat energy from combustion of fuel and then extracting the heat energy

3 Most Important Boiler Accessories
Boiler is perhaps the most important component of a power plant. In a boiler, the water is heated to high temperature and high pressure steam, which is then used to drive a turbine to generate power. In other words, it is that device which transfers the chemical energy of the fuel into pressure and heat
