Transformer is an electrical device whose main purpose is to transfer power from one electrical circuit to another circuit, but apart from this transformer is also a constant frequency, constant power and constant flux device. Transformer works on the principle of Faradays Law of electromagnetic Induction and it say that whenever there is a relative […]
Conventionally BOILER is a pressurised vessel which converts water in to steam. According to modern definition of boiler “it is a heat exchanger whose work is to produce high pressure steam from water”. In this heat exchanger, the hot side is the mixture resulting from the combustion of the fuel & air and the fluid […]
Did you know! that there are only 11 thermal power plants in the world which are having an individual generation capacity of 5GW (5000 MW) or more around the globe and out of those 11 plants 8 power plants are in China, Japan and Taiwan. Taichung power plant in Longjing, Taichung, Taiwan (Capacity 5788 MW) […]
In case of power plants we generally use Synchronous generators, which are also known as Alternators, they are named as synchronous as they rotate at synchronous speed or we can say that they rotate in synchronisim with the stator field being magnetically locked. The reason we are using AC generators instead of DC generators is […]
