Block Diagram Hydro Power Plant. Hydroelectric power station needs huge amount of water at sufficient head all the time. Its use is being promoted in many countries of the world as a renewable and non polluting source of energy.
Hydroelectricity is one of the main forms of energy in use today. So a hydroelectric dam is constructed across the river or lakean artificial storage reservoir where water is stored is placed back side of the dam. A power generating station which uses the kinetic or potential energy of water for generation of an electrical energy is called hydroelectric power plant.
When water is stored at high level it has potential energy.
They are water source penstock turbine and generator. Air and fuel gas circuit the thermal power plant consists of a boiler and other auxiliary equipment which is required to utilize the air and flue gases.
