Why is oil burnt in power stations?
Oil is burned in power stations to produce heat, which is used to generate steam. This steam then drives turbines connected to generators, producing electricity. Oil is used because it is a relatively cheap and reliable source of energy that can be easily transported and stored.
What type of resistors carry relatively high electric currents?
Power resistors are designed to carry high electric currents due to their ability to dissipate heat effectively. These resistors are commonly used in applications where high power levels need to be handled, such as in power supplies, industrial equipment, and power electronics. They often have a large physical size and are built to withstand the heat generated by the current passing through them.
Why does a heat pump need an external source or energy?
A heat pump requires an external source of energy to transfer heat from a low-temperature area to a high-temperature area. This process of moving heat against the natural flow requires energy input, typically in the form of electricity, to power the compressor and circulate the refrigerant.
How does a Nuclear power station produce power?
Usually a Nuclear Power plant has a large cooling tower that has a sort of wide hour-glass shape to it. These cooling towers are very huge - say several hundred feet high and just as wide. I live in Delaware and we can see the New Jersey Cooling tower from many miles away across the bay. But occasionally a Nuclear Power plant may not have need of a cooling tower and will instead make use of a nearby lake or river to help cool the reactor such as the Robinson Plant in Hartsville South Carolina. All plants though, do have reactors. These giant facilities are usually dome shaped and house the reactor core that produces the heat and electricity.
What temperature is 1100 watts into Celsius?
To convert watts to temperature, you need more information such as the specific heat capacity of the material being heated. Watts is a measure of power, not temperature.
What does a hydroelectric power station need to function?
In order for a hydroelectic power station to function, the station will need a large supply of water. The station will also require large generators with turbines in order to create power from the pressure of the water.
Why do CHP power stations need to be close to the place the head is used?
because it lets off more heat ( i think)
Why you need nuclear power station?
North Korea
Why do you need power?
We need power to live like we need power for heat to get water run your car keep things cold we would always need it
What are the advantages and disadvantages of atomic power station in koodankulam?
basic imporent need is power so power plant need. it may cause harmful diseases
Why does the International Space Station need solar panels?
To give it power. Only a certain amount of power can be provided by battery power.
Why was the Fukushima power plant so close to the ocean?
Nuclear power plants need to be near an ocean, a major river, or a lake, because they need a source of cooling water. This cooling water is used to condense steam back to water to continue the nuclear steam supply cycle, and to remove residual heat from the power plant.
How electrical power is transmitted from power plan to the consumer?
electrical power from the power plant to consumer goes through the transmission & distribution system, first we transmit the high voltage power from the power plant to sub station in sub station we step down the voltage according to need & distribute it to the demand.
What is the need of under frequency relay in automatic load shedding?
to protect the generator with in or substation station power.
Does solar power need heat?
yes solar energy needs heat as it is the directly receving energy from the sun and it is the energy which provides more heat
How can you manually close a power window?
You cannot manually close a power window. You must repair the problem causing it not to work. Check the fuse, power window switch, and if they are good, you may need a new motor.
How do you listen to radio stations without an online stream?
It can get pretty complicated. You need a radio receiver, and you need to be close enough to the transmitter of the station you want to receive. Also, you need to know that station's transmit frequency, and tune your receiver to that frequency.
