Geothermal Power station typesGeothermal Power station types Dry steam power plants Dry steam plants are the simplest and oldest design. They directly use geothermal steam of 150°C or greater to turn turbines. Flash steam power plants Flash steam plants pull deep, high-pressure hot water into lower-pressure tanks and use the …
3. HISTORY OF NUCLEAR POWER-PLANT:- Electricity was generated for the first time ever by a nuclear reactor on December 20, 1951 at the EBR-I experimental station near Arco, Idaho in the United States. On June 27, 1954, the world's first nuclear power plant to generate electricity for a power grid started operations at Obninsk, …
18. IN POWER PLANT ENGINEERING Condensers contains air and steam mixture. So, The statement is "The pressure of the air and steam is equal to the sum of the pressures which constituent would exert, if it occupied the same space by self". 19. It means, Where, pc = pressure in condenser, pa = partial pressure of air, ps = partial …
