An Overview of the Analysis of the Useful Output Energy of the Thermal Power Plant

Abstract

In the economic development of the country, the power generation industry plays a key role. The increasing demand for electricity has made power plants of scientific interest, but most power plants are built according to energy efficiency requirements based solely on the first law of thermodynamics. The demand for energy supply is narrowing down day by day around the world. The actual useful loss of energy cannot be explained by the first law of thermodynamics, since it does not discriminate between The efficiency of energy and quantity. The present study deals with the comparison of the electricity and energy analysis of coal- and gas-fired thermal power plants. A comprehensive overview of various studies on thermal power plants over the years is given in this article. The study will also shed light on the scope for further research and suggestions for development in current thermal power plants.
