LECTURE NOTES ON POWER PLANT ENGINEERING (A70353) IV I Semester (JNTUH-R15) Mr. RAJU Assistant Professor Mrs. Assistant Professor MECHANICAL ENGINEERING INSTITUTE OF AERONAUTICAL ENGINEERING (Autonomous) Dundigal, Hyderabad-500043 UNIT-1 STEAM POWER PLANT Introduction: Power Plant ENGINEERING is a science, which deals with the complete study of different types of power plant. Sources are divided into two types 1. Conventional sources (Non-Renewable Sources)-these are consumable sources. Ex: Coal, Diesel, Nuclear activity materials etc. 2. Non-conventional sources (Renewable Sources) -these are non-consumable sources Ex: Solar, Wind, Tidal, Water etc. In India, the following sources are used to generate the power. 1. Water energy It is used in Hydro-Electric Power Plant 2. Coal- It is used in Steam Plant 3. Diesel- It is used in Engine plant 4. Nuclear activity materials- It is used in Nuclear Power Plant 5.
Deposits of uranium have been located in Bihar and Rajasthan. It is estimated that the present reserves of uranium available in country may be sufficient to sustain 10,000 mW power plants for its thorium into nuclear Indian lifetime. Another possible nuclear power source is thorium, which is abundant in this country, estimated at 500,000 ...
