typical power plant generators produce from 50KVAC to 150KVAC regardless if they are hydro, coal, natural gas, etc.
Most powerplants produce several "Megawatts" of power. A megawatt is a million watts. The average lamp in our homes is about 100 watts.
If it is a large plant then more than 30 megawatts, and if it is a small plant then less than 30 megawatts.
Hydro,static and current.
Coal, oil, natural gas, hydro
Hydro=Water Water is natural. So power from water is natural http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hydropower
through hydro- electric energy, turbines are rotated by the force from the water hence providing electricity.
Water is allowed to fall from some height into a turbine. The height the water falls increases its kinetic energy. That is why dams are so tall. The turbine rotates. the turbine is mounted on a shaft. The shaft is connected to the shaft of a generator. When the generator is spun by the turbine, it makes electricity. Water actually does not fall but rather flows down stream at high velocity and great pressure. it also saves much more money and if we only use it we will be stoping polution and we can reuse it.
Hydro- means water. A hydro-electric generator uses moving water from a river or dam to turn the generator and produce electricity.
You can't directly. But using a hydro generator, water pushes a generator, which generates electricity
the basic principle is that the kinetic energy of falling water is converted to electrical energy.the water which falls on a water turbine makes it to rotate and the generator which is coupled to it(turbine) also rotates and produces electricity.
Hydroelectricity comes from dams, the water coming from the river (which the dam is built on) rushes into a generator which the rushing water powers the generator and creates electricity. Then the electricity is sent into wires apart of the generator system and the electricity is sent all over. question: Where is money for hydro electricity coming from: Well, it doesn't make absolute sense but that's why you have bills for hydro electricity because the electricity that you have partly comes from dams. So the money to power dams is coming from you!
The energy we can get from the movement of water or from the force of water flow is called hydropower. It produces electricity as it flows towards a turbine, spinning the turbine and activating the generator.
Water behind a dam falls through a turbine, causing the turbine to spin, the turbine spins a large electric alternator (AC generator), the generator produces electricity which is delivered to the power grid.
Bosnia produces electricity mainly from thermoelectricty by burning coal, and from hydro sources.
This is called hydroelectric power, or hydro power.
Force the water through an electric turbine generator and that produces electricity. Having water backed up behind a dam provides the push.
It is called a hydro electric turbine generator.
hydro electric means electricity is produced by the using the Water(hydro). The water is made to fall forcely on the Turbine wheel it makes the turbine to rotate. Turbine is coupled to the Generator shaft. when the turbine rotates the generator rotates and emf is induced in it and the ourput is taken from it
Hydro generators generate electricity from flowing water. THey can range from several hundred dollars to several thousand, depending on the brand and how much it can process.
