• HISTORY Steam power developed slowly through Denis Papin’s invention in 1679 where a type of pressure cooker with tightly fitting lid that confined steam can power a piston and cylinder engine. Became useful pumps in mining in 17th^ century with Thomas Savery’s steam pump called " The Miner's Friend” Used early on in electrical generation to power ships as Charles Algernon Parsons develops the steam turbine in 1884

Uses of Steam Power

• Pumping Water
• Transportation
• Cleaning
• Electricity

Generates more than 80% of the world's electricity by the

use of modern steam engines of power plants

COAL-FIRED POWER PLANT

• Coal-Fired Power Plants  (^) are type of power plant that makes use of the combustion of coal in order to generate electricity Their use provides around 40%of the worlds electricity and they are primarily used in developing country

1.Coal Conveyor Is a belt type arrangement that are used to move coal efficiently. .

2.Pulverizer Increases the coal combustion efficiency of coal.

4. Superheater It is a piped from the upper drum area into tubes inside an area of the furnace.

5. Economizer Are mechanical devices intended to reduce energy consumption.

7. Steam Turbine Is a mechanical device that extracts thermal energy from pressurized steam, and converts it into rotary motion.

8. Generator A device which convert mechanical energy into electrical energy.
