INTRODUCTION
In India 65% of total power is generated by the Thermal Power Stations. Yamunanagar Thermal Power Project is a project of Haryana Power Generation Corporation limited (HPGCL). It is situated at village Kalanor In Yamunanagar. Its total capacity is 600 MW as at present with two units working with capacity. Having two unit of 2 x 300 MW = 600 MW

Steam Power Plants

Electricity generation in thermal power plants if characterized by the main source of generation being firing of coal, gas etc. Steam is produced in a boiler, and it drives a turbine connected to an alternator. Heat energy is converted to electric energy within the so-called steam cycle.

Energy Conversion Process in Steam Power Plants


Thermal Energy

Fuel

Chemical Energy

Chemical Energy is Converted into Thermal Energy by Combustion In Boiler

Thermal Energy is Converted into Mechanical Energy In Turbine


Mechanical Energy

Electrical Energy

Mechanical Energy is Converted into Electrical Energy In Generator

Energy Conversion . . .

Fuel, Air and water produce steam in the boiler by combustion Steam of high temperature and pressure is expended from high pressure to low pressure in the turbine Thermal energy is converted into kinetic energy and finally mechanical energy This mechanical energy derives the generator to produce electricity

Steam Power Plant can work in two Manners


1. 2.

Production of electricity Production of electricity with production of steam for the use in industry e.g. paper mills, textile mills, sugar mills, refineries

Processing of Power Plant


Boiler Water Steam Turbine Fuel Grid

Generator

Exhaust Steam
Waste Gases

Efficiency . . .
Turbine Losses: a. Heat rejection to Condenser 54% 3. Alternator or Generator Loss 1% TOTAL 55% Grand Total 71% So Efficiency = (100% - Losses) = 100% - 71% = 29%

Merits of Steam Power Plant


Fuel

is cheaper* Less space is required The initial cost is less A portion of steam can be used in various industries

Demerits of Steam Power Plant


Maintenance and operating costs are high Pollution of atmosphere is one of the major problems Water is required in huge quantity Handling of coal and disposal of ash are difficult tasks
