The steam turbine blades to turn creates steam.
The steam engine, steam piston Myllng after the turn brings.

They are both steam-engines. The turbine is purely rotative; the reciprocating steam-engine uses cylinders and pistons.
Gas turbine works on bryton cycle where as steam turbine works Rankine cycle. Construction, operation of a gas turbine are entirely different to steam turbine. Gas turbine has a compressor to compress the combustion air, a combustion chamber to burn the fuel and a turbine section to extract the work for burning fuel. Steam turbine is just has a turbine section to extract the work from steam.
A thermal power plant burns a fuel (normally a fossil fuel such as oil, gas or coal) to heat water and generate steam, this then turns a turbine and dynamo and generates electricity.
Geothermal takes steam directly from the earth, which is normally heated by volcanic action; the steam is piped to to the surface where it is used to drive a turbine and dynamo which then generates electricity. Geothermal can also be used to heat houses directly by piping the steam through a connected pipe system. This is used in areas where there is volcanic activity, such as Iceland.
Geothermal is "clean" energy as it does not produce any of the harmful byproducts that burning fossil fuels do.
A steam turbine uses water vapor which is called steam to make mechanical energy where a gas turbine uses any gas (may be methane, natural gas, flue gas) to make mechanical energy.
both are same........thermal power plant is one which produces power by means of steam....
it costs about €500
To produce electricity by the use of thermal energy in the form of heat.
Geothermal energy is often though of as having geological structure involved. But water-source heat pumps are also regarded as geothermal for the purpose of classification. Sea water can certainly be used for these. It is possible you are referring to the circulating water for the plant, and in this case sea water might be possible, but probably would not be very practical.
A manufacturing plant basically manufactures a chemical on a mass scale however a pilot plant helps to develop the process on a small scale, before a manufacturing plant is built.
plant total generation + deemed generation divided by plant capacity multiply by no of hours
Gasoline can combusted and given out thermal energy but I suspect the questing ask about thermal energy plant. Thermal energy plant usually referred to Geothermal power plant or Solarthermal power plant. Geothermal plant run on the thermal energy from earth and Solarthermal run on the solar radiation transformed to heat. If the question ask for the latter then no, thermal energy plant doesn't run on gasoline.
thermal->Mechanical Kinetic->Electric Potential
geothermal plant
Nothing, except possibly size, but that would be because of different power rating of plant not different type of plant.
The source of the thermal energy is obviously completely different, but the steam side, turbo-generator, etc is very similar.
Geothermal energy is a renewable source of energy because it can be re-used, unlike fossil fuels. Geo- means earth, and -thermal means heat. A power plant will use the heat energy found deep in the earth to create electricity. Since the thermal energy of the earth will never go away, geothermal energy is a renewable source.
No. Solar power is not the same as thermal energy. Thermal energy is the random kinetic motion of microscopic molecule. Solar power on the other hand is derived from electromagnetic waves. For example: lets take a plant. If you put a plant in a dark room and heat the plant, the plant will still die even though it is supplied with thermal energy. However if you now add light(of specific wavelengths) the plant will thrive. So the plant can discern the difference between thermal energy and solar energy. Hope that helps
Since this question is in the "nuclear energy" category, I assume it relates to nuclear thermal reactor. To my knowledge there are no nuclear plants in New Zealand. It would make sense, however, for the question to refer to a geothermal plant and be in the wrong category. If that is the case, the the answer is the Wairakei Plant at Wairakei, at about the center of the North Island. This plant is scheduled to be decommissioned in 2011. When it is, the largest geothermal plant in New Zealand will be the Nga Awa Purua Power station in Taupo, which is also at about the center of the North Island.
A bush is a plant
The basis of differentiation is end user. A thermal power plant produces electricity to sell the same to different end users through grid. But, in case of a captive thermal power plant generation of electricity generally is to meet the demand of power by the parent industry. For e.g. an Alumunium smelter plant requires huge quntity of elctric energy to operate. To secure undisrupted source of energy it may set up its own power plant which in turn can be termed as the captive power plant. But, in certain cases excess electricity can be sold to the market.

the difference is that banana plant is a dicotyledon while pineaple is a monocotyledon plant
