2. Steam-electric power station - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Steam-electric_power_station

   Steam-electric power station. The steam-electric power station is a power station in which the electric generator is steam driven. Water is heated, turns into steam and spins a steam turbine which drives an electrical generator. After it passes through the turbine, the steam is condensed in a condenser. The greatest variation in the design of ...

3. Steam shower - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Steam_shower

   A steam shower is a type of bathing where a humidifying steam generator produces water vapor that is dispersed around a person's body. A steam shower is essentially a steam room that offers the typical features of a bathroom shower. Steam showers are generally found in self-contained enclosures that prevent the water vapour from escaping into ...

4. Boiler (power generation) - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Boiler_(power_generation)

   Boiler (power generation) An industrial boiler, originally used for supplying steam to a stationary steam engine. A boiler or steam generator is a device used to create steam by applying heat energy to water. Although the definitions are somewhat flexible, it can be said that older steam generators were commonly termed boilers and worked at low ...

5. Supercritical steam generator - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Supercritical_steam_generator

   Supercritical steam generator. Supercritical water exists at temperatures above 374 °C and pressures above 220 atmospheres. A supercritical steam generator is a type of boiler that operates at supercritical pressure and temperature, frequently used in the production of electric power. In contrast to a subcritical boiler in which steam bubbles ...

6. Permanent magnet synchronous generator - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Permanent_magnet...

   A permanent magnet synchronous generator is a generator where the excitation field is provided by a permanent magnet instead of a coil. The term synchronous refers here to the fact that the rotor and magnetic field rotate with the same speed, because the magnetic field is generated through a shaft-mounted permanent magnet mechanism, and current is induced into the stationary armature.

7. Heat recovery steam generator - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Heat_recovery_steam_generator

   Heat recovery steam generator. Modular HRSG. A heat recovery steam generator (HRSG) is an energy recovery heat exchanger that recovers heat from a hot gas stream, such as a combustion turbine or other waste gas stream. It produces steam that can be used in a process (cogeneration) or used to drive a steam turbine (combined cycle).
