In any thermal power plant, there are mainly three cycles i.e. Steam Cycle, Condensate cycle and Feed water cycle. We have already discussed the steam cycle in thermal power plant and now we will discuss about the Condensate cycle & Feed-water cycle. These two cycles are very important in efficiency point of view. As we […]

In order to generate electricity, we require mechanical torque and for the mechanical torque we require a fluid which will rotate the turbine, in thermal power plants to rotate the turbine we use steam as a medium. Steam is generated in boiler with the help of coal and water and after burning the coal, the […]
The efficiency of a basic Rankin cycle is very less due to the enthalpy loss in the condenser. So the reheat and the regenerative cycle are used to increase the efficiency of the Rankin cycle.Here we will discuss how regenerative cycle is used in thermal power plant. (Rankin cycle with regenerative feed heating) If the […]
