A coal-fired power station works by burning coal to give off heat, which heats water and produces steam. The steam is then used to push generator turbines; which generate energy.

What is the machine in a power station that changes kinetic energy into electrical energy?
for instance generator, crusher, boiler, coal
Describe 6 difference method of producing electricity?
Hydro electricity (Water power) Diesel generator Coal fired power station Nuclear power station Gas fired power station Wind turbine generators.
What are the energy transformations in a coal fired power station?
Coal is burned to produce heat, which then is transferred to water/steam, which produces mechanical power in the steam turbine, which produces electrical power from the generator
Is electricity from nuclear power the same as more powerful or radioactive compared to electrical energy from other power plants?
The electricity is exactly the same as from a fossil fired power station, generated from the same type of generator
How does a coal fired power station produce electricity?
A coal fired station burns coal to produce heat. The heat boils water to produce high pressure and temperature steam. The steam expands in a turbine to rotate the shaft. The turbines rotation drives a generator. The generator produces electricity which is sent out to the consumers.
Which part of a power station is like a dynamo in your bicycle?
The generator
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.

What does a power stations turbine do?
A power station's turbine converts steam energy into rotary energy to drive the generator.
How can you make a small working model of a hydro electric power station?
you need to do you have a small turbine and generator by the axis of the movement of turbine generator to you.
What is difference between power station generator and dynamo generator?
Generating Capacity : Power plant has very high generating capacity as compared to gen set.Size of the equipment : Size of the alternators are compatibly very big in Power plants.Type of Prim-over : In Power plant turbine is used to for prime over or to provide mechanical power to rotor of the alternator whereas in generating set diesel engine is used for prim-over.
Is there any difference between power plant and power station?
No.AnswerThe term, 'power plant', could really apply to any source of power: from a power station to a small portable generator. A 'power station', on the other hand, is always used to describe a power plant that supplies the electricity grid system.
What uses mechanical energy?
A power station generator uses mechanical energy produced by the steam turbine.
What is the need of under frequency relay in automatic load shedding?
to protect the generator with in or substation station power.
Why generating station capacity mentioned in KW even though alternator rating is in KVA?
In generator station the power which produced is real power the real power to me mentioned in its's factor so it is mentioned as KW or MW. In transformer there is no effect of change the power factor (ie:cos,phi) and the power which transfer do not changes its frequency. so, in Transformer and generator it is mentioned as KVA.
What is the unit of a 91 delta power generator repairer in the army?
A 91D can be stationed at almost any duty station.
