  2. Power plant engineering - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Power_plant_engineering

    A common example of a thermal power plant that produces electricity by the consumption of fuel is the nuclear power plant. Nuclear power plants use a nuclear reactor's heat to turn water into steam. [1] This steam is sent through a turbine which is connected to an electric generator to generate electricity. Nuclear power plants account for 20% ...

  3. Steam–electric power station - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Steam–electric_power_station

    The efficiency of a conventional steam–electric power plant, defined as energy produced by the plant divided by the heating value of the fuel consumed by it, is typically 33 to 48%, limited as all heat engines are by the laws of thermodynamics (See: Carnot cycle). The rest of the energy must leave the plant in the form of heat.
