[0002] A thermal power plant is a plant that uses combustibles (such as coal) as fuel to produce electricity. Its basic production process is: when the fuel is burned, it heats water to generate steam, converting the chemical energy of the fuel into thermal energy. The steam pressure drives the turbine to rotate, converting the thermal energy into mechanical energy. The turbine then drives the generator to rotate, converting the mechanical energy into electrical energy.
[0003] The prime mover is usually a steam engine or gas turbine, and in some smaller power stations, an internal combustion engine may also be used. They all generate electricity by using the pressure drop during the process of high-temperature, high-pressure steam or gas passing through a turbine to become low-pressure air or condensed water.
