in your question itself you have said that coal-fired yes electricity is generated by burning coal a large amount of heat is generated as a result. this heat energy is used to heat water inside the boiler tubes. the water is converted to dry saturated steam at this state the temperature is about 540 degree celcius and pressure about 140 kg/sq.cm. this steam is made to expand in a turbine whose shaft is coupled to a generator. when turbine blade rotates due to steam the generator armature also rotates resulting in generation of electricity. simply the heat energy produced by burning coal to heat steam is converted into mechanical energy in steam turbine and then into electrical energy by the generator.....
What else can I help you with?
How the UK make electricity?
The majority of he UK's electricity is generated by coal or gas-fired power stations. We also use nuclear power, wind and wave generators.
Which country has the highest percentage of its electricity generated from nuclear power plant?
France
How much energy is generated from coal?
The amount of energy generated from coal can vary based on factors such as the type and quality of coal, the efficiency of the power plant, and the technology used. On average, coal-fired power plants convert about 33-40% of the energy in coal into electricity.
What is coal fired power?
A power plant in which coal is burned to move generating turbines to produce electricity.
How do nuclear power plant owners generate revenue from their reactors?
By selling the electricity generated from the heat of the reactor. Same as fossil fuel power plants do, sell electricity generated from the heat of burning.
How is electricity generated in south south?
Power Plants! Fossil fired / coal fired Nuclear No Hydro electrical No Wind powered Solar Panels in some houses
How is electricity generated in a biomass power plant?
Electricity is generated in a biomass power plant through a process called combustion. Biomass, such as wood chips or agricultural waste, is burned to heat water and produce steam. The steam then drives a turbine connected to a generator, which converts the kinetic energy into electricity.
What is generated in a hydro-electric power plant?
Hydroelectric power plants generate electricity by the action of the "falling" water spinning a turbine which rotates a wire inside a big magnet.
How much electricity does gas produce?
Gas-fired power plants generate electricity by burning natural gas to heat water and produce steam to turn turbines. The amount of electricity generated by gas depends on factors such as the efficiency of the power plant and the quantity of gas burned per unit of time. On average, natural gas power plants can convert about 50% of the energy in the gas into electricity.
How does electricity get from a power plant to your home?
Electricity generated at a power plant is transmitted through high-voltage power lines to substations. At the substations, the voltage is reduced for distribution to homes through local power lines. The electricity enters your home through the meter and electrical panel.
Do battery-driven cars cause pollution?
Depends on where you get the electricity to recharge the batteries. If the electricity is produced in a hydro-electric plant then there is almost no pollution. If the electricity comes from a nuclear power plant then you have nuclear waste. If the electricity comes from a coal-fired plant that you do have pollution from the burning of coal.
How many type of power plant?
Atomic Energy plant, Oil fired plant, Gas fired plant, Coal fired Plant, Gas Turbine plant, Hydroelectric plant, Wave power, Wind power, Solar panel type
