Mechanical work is generated by the expansion of steam.
What else can I help you with?
What is STG power plant?
STG stands for Steam turbine generator. It is a type of power plant that generates electricity by using steam to drive a turbine connected to a generator. The turbine converts the thermal energy in the steam into mechanical energy, which is then converted into electrical energy by the generator.
How is power used?
To make steam, to turn a generator.
What is the steam of a power plant use for?
To drive a steam turbine which is coupled to an electrical generator
How do you power generator to create electricity?
The nuclear reactor produces heat which is used to raise steam to feed a steam turbine/generator set
What is the relationship turbine and generator?
steam powers a turbine which drives a generator to produce electrical power
Where can I buy a steam powered generator?
The best place to purchase a steam powered generator would be online at www.greensteamengine.com. The website is very valuable to show the advantages of going with steam power.
Parts of a nuclear power plant?
Reactor,Control Rods,Steam Generator,Turbines and Generator,Cooling Tower.
What are examples of mechanical to electrical energy?
A steam turbine/generator in a power station, a small gasoline powered generator, or a 12v alternator in your car driven by the engine.
Is generator used in nuclear or solar energy?
Generators are nearly always used for nuclear power, and sometimes used for solar power. In nuclear power plants, the reactor makes steam to run a generator. Much of solar produced electricity does not use a generator, but produces power through a photovoltaic effect. Concentrated solar can be used to make steam to run a generator.
How does steam power compare power created by running water?
Steam power is more efficient.
What is a steam generator used for in a fossil fuel power plant?
To convert the heat of combustion to steam which can be used in an engine.
Is steam reversible?
Yes. Steam is produced in a steam generator (boiler), used to power an engine (or turbine), condensed, and returned to the boiler as feedwater.
