Study Notes

Power Plant Components

The combined-cycle power plant is known for its high efficiency in converting fuel energy to electricity.
A boiler in a power plant is primarily responsible for heating water to produce high-pressure steam, which then drives a turbine to generate electricity.
A condenser in a power plant is responsible for cooling the used steam coming from the turbine, converting it back into liquid water, and re-circulating it to the boiler to maintain a continuous cycle.
