Coal and oilfired steam power plants have steam turbines to convert the heat energy of combustion into mechanical energy, which then operates an electric generator. All plants use the steam turbine for the drop between the high pressure and temperature of the steam and the lower pressure of condensing vapor.
WhatsApp: +86 18203695377The effect of efficiency improvement on the emissions of CO2 from a coalfired plant is shown in Fig. 1. At 50% efficiency, a power plant will emit up to 40% less CO2 than the plant with a thermal efficiency of 30%. It should be noted here that the average global efficiency of coalfired plants is currently 33% [8].
WhatsApp: +86 18203695377Coalfired plants produce electricity by burning coal in a boiler to produce steam. The steam produced, under tremendous pressure, flows into a turbine, which spins a generator to create electricity. The steam is then cooled, condensed back into the water, and returned to the boiler to start the process over.
