The factors affecting the location of the (nuclear) thermal power stations are partially location in relationship to the grid, and mostly location in relationhip to the heatsink. An enormous amout of energy is generated by the nuclear reaction - in fact the typical efficiency of the nuclear to electric power production cycle is only 33% - and that excess energy must be dissipated. There is also the factor of the population density, in that the design of the emergency/evacuation planning zone needs to consider the amount of people needed to be evacuated in the event of a large nuclear incident, should that occur.

What is the main fuel used in thermal power stations?
The main fuel used in thermal power stations is coal. Other fuels that can be used include natural gas, oil, and biomass.
How to calculate thermal diffusivity and what factors should be considered in the calculation?
To calculate thermal diffusivity, divide the thermal conductivity of a material by its density and specific heat capacity. Factors to consider in the calculation include the material's composition, temperature, and physical state.
What is the relationship between thermal and temperature?
Thermal energy is roughly proportional to temperature.
What is thermal migration?
Thermal migration refers to the movement of atoms or molecules within a material in response to temperature changes. This can lead to the redistribution of constituents within the material, affecting its properties such as mechanical strength or conductivity. Thermal migration is commonly observed in materials undergoing thermal processing or experiencing temperature gradients.
What three factors affect thermal energy?
raising of object temperature, the mass, specific heat
Why thermal power stations located in India?
the thermal power stations are not only located in India, they are located in the part of the world where there are coal reserves, India has large coal reserve located in various parts of M.P,C.G,JHARKHAND & KOLKATA,this is the reason behind the location of thermal power stations in India,as these stations use coal for the generation of electricity

Imagine you are asked to advise the utilities company about the costs (negatives) and benefits associated with the use of fossil fuels in thermal power stations. a. List four costs of using fossil fuels in thermal power stations. b. List four benefits of using fossil fuels in thermal power stations.?
List the names of thermal power stations?
There are hundreds! If you mean nuclear stations, in the US you can get a list from www.nrc.gov. If you mean world wide, go to www.world-nuclear.org.
What is an example of technology used to follow fronts?
Thermal satellite imaging, Doppler Radar and collective thermal data from various stations in the area and path of a front.
What are the factors influencing location of thermal power plant?
Many factors are influencing location of a thermal power plants. Main factors are:how close to cooling water from river, ocean, sea, etc..site safety against earthquakes and floods (especially for nuclear power plants)how close to harbours or transport means if it coal power plant and the coal is imported from outside the country.its proximity from heavy population centers, especially for coal plants due to aircontamination.
How are space stations cooled heated And protected from incineration from the sun?
