Study Notes

Biomass Fired Steam Power Plant

A biomass fired steam power plant uses biomass fuel, which is composed primarily of carbon, hydrogen, and oxygen.
Biomass is a good substitute for coal or natural gas.
Biomass is fed from a bunker through a pulverizer to reduce particle size.
This pulverized fuel is mixed with primary air and fed to a burner in the furnace.
Complete combustion occurs in the boiler compartment.

Simple Ideal Rankine Cycle

The image displays the simple ideal Rankine cycle.
Key components include a turbine, pump, condenser, and boiler.
The cycle involves various energy inputs and outputs, represented by arrows and labels like Q_in, Q_out, W_p, and W_T.
The cycle shows the flow of energy and work through each component.
