To produce 5 MW of electricity how much steam pressure is needed and water in relevancy. What temperature is needed to produce it and what size pipe should be piped into the steam turbine?
That is a question that does not have one single answer. For instance, if the pressure of the steam is raised, less steam is needed. As pressure rises, temperature will also rise due to adiabatic work done on the steam. Also, higher temperatures are needed at higher pressures to make sure the steam does not condense. Raising the temperature of the steam at a given pressure also means that less steam is needed to provide the same amount of energy. Efficiency will also vary, depending on the turbine, and other factors, such ascondenser vacuum. In general, running a pressure around 40 - 45 PSI, it will take 20,000 - 25,000 pounds of steam per hour to generate one megawatt of electricity during that hour. This is with steam that is just above saturation (around 285°F). So, for 5 MW, you'd need around 100,000 pounds of steam an hour. The pipe size would depend on the turbine. A 55 MW turbine (common for geothermal), might have two pipes bringing steam in (one per side), both of which are around 30" in diameter. For 100,000 pounds of steam an hour, much smaller pipes would suffice. However, expanding and then compressing the steam repeatedly is something you want to avoid. Note that these figures reflect more of a geothermal application. The pressure and temperature of steam from a boiler will typically be much higher.
How much does 1 MW equals in terms of KWH of electricity?

Is mw and mW the same in watts . is it the same or is mW stronger voltage then mw?
The units mw and mW are the same. They mean milliwatts. The terms Mw and MW, however, means megawats, which is a billion (1x109) times greater than a mw or a mW.Another AnswerThe correct symbol for a watt is an upper-case 'W'. So the correct symbol for a milliwatt is 'mW' (not 'mw'), and the correct symbol for a megawatt is 'MW' (not 'Mw').
How do you calculate only turbine efficiency not turbine cycle efficiency?
by calculating the inlet steam enthalpy-outlet steam enthalpy we will know the total kcal consumed for output mw required kcal for 1 kwh=860 now campare this with your turbine kcal for 1kwh now you came to know how much is your turbine efficiency................................................................................

What is difference between 500MW boiler 660MW boiler?
500 MW Boiler is sub-critical Boiler which generates steam at pressure lower than the critical pressure ie below 221.2 kg/sqcm. where as the 660 MW boiler is super critical boiler which operates steam pressure above critical pressure.

How much electricity does an average hydroelectric dam generate?
Although several large-scale dams can produce over 1000 MW, an average dam will produce anywhere from 80 MW to 500 MW. An average value for those would probably be about 200 MW.
What kind of current does a generator?
All depends on what MW of a generator its coupled with, assuming we are talking about "steam" or "gas" turbines. Otherwise, its relevant to the coupled generator.
