Why is nuclear burned in a power station?
Learn to speak proper English
How does fossil fuel power station work?

How is power generated in a power station?
In a power station fuel is burnt to produce heat in the form of steam. This causes the turbine connected to a turbogenerator to spin resulting in the conversion of mechanical spinning energy to electrical energy, generating power.
What fuel do they use kingnorth power station?
You mean Kingsnorth in the UK? It is not nuclear, coal is used there.
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
Why is fuel burned in the power station?
Fuel is burned to create steam. The steam turns the turbines, which produces electricity.
Where are fossil fuel burned?
In cars and trucks (oil), and in power stations (coal, oil and natural gas) to generate electricity.
How much fuel does a power station use?
Depends on the type of power station.
What is something that can be burned to produce heat and power?
fuel
Why is nuclear burned in a power station?
Learn to speak proper English
Is a fossil fuel power station sustainable?
No
What do you call places where fuels are burned to generate electricity?
A power plant or generating station.
What are the issues that when deciding where to build power station?
away from urban areas and less distance from fossil fuel areas to power station
What part of the power station is the fossil fuel burnt in?
The furnace/boiler.
How the power is increases in gas turbine by adding fuel?
Very simply, more fuel burned, more power output. This applies to any combustion engine.
How is the energy stored in a natural gas released in a power station?
With current technology - as of 2015 - it is usually burned.
What power station makes very cheap electricity after the station is built?
This is typical of nuclear plants where the fuel costs are low compared with fossil fuel costs.
