1. OBJECTIVES

• Understand the energy conversion process in a steam power plant
• Understand the efficiency of power generation as the performance parameter in steam power plant

2. BASIC PRINCIPLE

         Steam power plant is a power generating system by using the chemical energy in a fuel which converted into the turbine’s shaft power. Energy conversion process described as below.

1. Chemical energy stored in the fuel converted into thermal energy by combustion as a hot gass. This process occur in the burner.
2. Thermal energy of the combustion gas transferred into the water H₂O, so that thermal energy of the H₂O increasing. This process take place in the steam generator.
3. Thermal energy of H₂O converted into kinetic energy of H₂O when it flows through the nozzle.
4. Kinetic energy of H₂O converted into mechanical energy in the rotating turbine.
5. Mechanical energy in the rotating turbine converted into electrical energy in the generator.
