Discuss why the damper winding are not used in turbo generator?

It is definitely used in a turbo-generator


What is the working principle of steam power plant?

As we are very clear about the Power generation, that is there must be a prime mover which can develop a mechanical energy from the natural sources of energy. As in the case of steam power plant the water is headed and converted in to steam (super headed) then it is allowed to expand in to a turbine. The turbine causes to rotate (turbo machine) at about 3600rpm. Hence the Turbine becomes a prime mover here, then the rotational movement (shaft) is connected with the generator/alternator in order to produce electricity according to Faraday's law.


Why shaft will still rotate when there is no generation in steam power plant?

The shaft still rotates but the generator takes only enough mechanical power from the turbine to overcome friction. Thus very little steam supply is required for the turbine and fuel is used at a very slow rate. In this condition the generator still runs at synchronous speed but it is a neutral load on the grid, drawing no power and supplying no power. If the steam were turned off, the generator would continue to run at the same synchronous speed, but as a motor, drawing enough power from the grid connection to overcome friction. In this state the mechanical phase of the rotor would lag slightly (as a load its power factor could be controlled via the field current). Now if the steam supply were turned up, the phase of the rotor would advance, while the generator would continue running synchronously, but it would now start pumping power into the grid and fuel would be used at a rate proportional to the power supplied. Thus a turbo-generator set quickly adjusts its rate of fuel consumption according to the power it supplies to the grid. In this way the quantity of fuel used and CO2 emitted (if carbon fuel is used) are closely tied to the amount of energy produced.


What does mva stand for in the turbo generator field?

There are two concerns here regarding loading on transformers of this size. First is the difference between MVA and MW. MW is just real power -- watts. MVA is total power which includes real power (MW) and reactive power (MVAR).--- http://en.allexperts.com/q/Electric-Power-Utilities-2405/operation-limit-oof-power.htm


How much water required to generate 1000 kw?

Presumably you are asking about hydroelectric power, as opposed to thermal (steam) power?The kilowatt is used to measure power. This is the rate at which energy is generated, so it would require a continuous supply of water to generate energy at a rate of 1000 kW.However, you can determine the rate at which water must flow through a turbine to generate energy at a constant rate of 1000 kW. The relevant equation is:P = (g i) hWhere P = power (W), g = acceleration due to gravity (9.81 m/s2), i = rate of flow of water (kg/s), and h = head of water (m).So, if we assume a head of water as, say, 1000 m, then we can determine the rate of flow of water to generate 1000 000 W, as follows:i = P / (g h) = 1000 000 / (9.81 x 1000) = 102 kg/sThis assumes that the turbo-generator set is 100% efficient which, of course, isn't the case. Assuming the turbo-generator set is, say, 75%, then the flow rate would need to be (102 / 0.75) = 136 kg/s.

What is the difference between a nuclear power plant and an oil power plant?

The source of the thermal energy is obviously completely different, but the steam side, turbo-generator, etc is very similar.


Which type of alternator used in thermal power plant why?

Turbo Alternators are used in thermal power stations because of the steam energy to mechanical energy conversion turbo alternator is more effitient


Can you increase the thermal power of a nuclear reactor without changing the core of the reactor?

Yes, we can increase the thermal power of a nuclear reactor without changing the core of the reactor; primarily by:increasing the coolant mass flow rate,modifying the control rod patterns, andupgrading the turbo generator system

How do you get geothermal energy?

You get geothermal energy by drilling into the ground, where you use the heat to make steam. the steam then powers a turbo generator, which makes energy to power homes.


Explain the working principle of turbo generator?

The working principle of a turbo generator is that of forcing extremely hot condensed air into the piston chamber. The hot condensed air reduces the need for fuel.
