Solar thermal power plants are electricity generation plants that utilize energy from the Sun to heat a fluid to a high fluid then transfers its heat to water which then becomes superheated steam is then used to turn turbines in a power plant and this mechanical energy is converted into electricity by a type of generation is
Requirement of Ash Handling System In Thermal Power Plant s coal is generally used as fuel and hence the ash is produced as the byproduct of Combustion Ash generated in power plant is about 30 40% of total coal consumption and hence the system is required to handle Ash for its proper utilization or disposal
One of the main reasons why thermal power plant is used is due to high electrical output low usage of water and cheap price of coal as compared to other non renewable energy sources Types of Thermal Power Plants The main types of thermal power plants are as follows Coal Based Thermal Power Plants; Gas Turbine Power Plants

BLOCK DIAGRAM OF THERMAL POWER PLANT 2 Air and Fuel Gas Circuit The thermal power plant consists of a boiler and other auxiliary equipment which is required to utilize the air and flue gases In the above picture it is seen that air is coming from the atmosphere by a forced or induced draught fan through the air pre heater In the air
Thermal power generation plant or thermal power station is the most conventional source of electric power Thermal power plant is also referred as coal thermal power plant and steam turbine power plant Before going into detail of this topic we will try to understand the line diagram of electric power generation thermal power station
Thermal Power Plant Operation According to the thermal power plant diagram the generation of power in the thermal power plant involves the following steps Coal and ash circuit Air and flue gas circuit Feedwater and steam circuit Cooling water circuit The following circuits describe the working of the thermal power plant Coal and ash circuit
A thermal power plant is an electric plant that converts thermal energy into electrical energy The difference between one type of plant and another is how the heat is obtained The ideal Rankine cycle is shown in the p v and T s diagrams below It consists of four processes 1 2 Boiling water to steam at constant pressure isobaric process
Industrial and large thermal power plants use conventional Rankine Cycles which are revised in this section First the simplest Rankine cycle is presented and the necessary variations are discussed until discussing the more commercial configurations The diagram T s in Fig 15b also shows the corresponding Carnot Cycle 1′ 3 4 5 1

3 This is how a combined cycle plant works to produce electricity and captures waste heat from the gas turbine to increase efficiency and electrical 1 Gas turbine burns fuel The gas turbine compresses air and mixes it with fuel that is heated to a very high temperature The hot air fuel mixture moves through the gas turbine blades making them spin
7 Thermal energy storage TES TES are high pressure liquid storage tanks used along with a solar thermal system to allow plants to bank several hours of potential electricity • Two tank direct system solar thermal energy is stored right in the same heat transfer fluid that collected it • Two tank indirect system functions basically the same as the direct
Figure Schematic diagram of a Thermal power plant Selection of site for thermal power plant • Nearness to the load centre The power plant should be as near as possible to the load centre to the centre of load So that the transmission cost and losses are minimum This factor is most important when Dc supply system is adopted
Key learnings Economiser Definition An economiser in a thermal power plant is defined as a device that recovers waste heat from flue gases to preheat boiler feed water reducing energy consumption and improving efficiency ; Working Principle The economiser captures heat from flue gases and transfers it to the boiler feed water thus economising the
Thermal Power Plant Layout Important Terms Used In Thermal Power Plant Or Steam Power Plant Saturation Temperature It is the temperature for a corresponding saturation pressure at which a liquid boil into its vapor phase ; Wet Steam or Unsaturated Steam It is a mixture which contain both water vapor and liquid water of the best boiler discharge steam
In coal fired thermal power plant steam is obtained in very high pressure inside the steam boiler by burning the pulverized coal This steam is then super heated in the in the T s diagram •Process 1 2 The working fluid is pumped from low to high pressure As the fluid is a liquid at this stage the pump requires little input energy
