"This comprehensive solution manual is a valuable resource for power plant engineering students and professionals. It provides in-depth coverage of the material with useful examples, explanations, and exercises." Power plants generate electricity by converting steam and combustion gases into mechanical energy. Many plants (such as coal plants) use an boiler to produce this energy. Â The boilers are fed with pressurized water from a boiler or condenser which is used to heat water at high temperatures comes from an external source of heat. When the steam generated by the high-temperature water vaporizes, it turns into hot gaseous water at atmospheric pressure which pushes a turbine connected to an electric generator. The need for efficient generation of electrical power and effective use of fuel led to significant discoveries in the field of heat and mass transfer, boundary layer-free flow, vibration analysis, and fluid mechanics. Among the many important achievements was the introduction of superheated steam by Rankine in 1859 who also contributed to kinetic theory of motion. Power plant engineering deals with all aspects of generation and conversion of mechanical energy in steam and gas turbines. Â The application involves designing, building, and operating boilers and turbines and maintaining them in a safe condition so that they can produce fulfilling results. The study of power plant engineering encompasses planning, design, operation, control, optimization training and research in the field of power generation. Power plant engineering also includes the design and construction of electrical generators for producing electric power from mechanical energy. The electrical generators can be mechanically driven or directly coupled to prime movers such as steam turbines to produce useful work. Â The term 'generator' refers to devices that convert mechanical energy into electrical energy while the term 'motor' refers to devices that convert electrical energy into mechanical motion. Â Power plant engineers may specialize in one or more areas within the field of power generation. Power plant engineering professionals select the best design concepts to make economical plant designs through proper component selection and knowledge of their application. Â They ensure the optimum system performance by ensuring that all systems are operating within their design limits, do not overload or damage components, and are properly maintained. Power plant engineers should be meticulous in the planning of power plants to take into account different properties of steam, fuel, steam generators, condensers, boilers, turbines etc. Â They should be aware of the relevant environmental regulations that are aimed at protecting the environment. Â Engineers are required to carry out detailed heat and mass transfer analysis for predicting the performance of power plant components and to design them using suitable materials. Power plant engineers may specialize in one or more areas within the field of power generation such as combustion, mechanical, thermal and environmental sciences. They may also specialize in one or more types of power plants: thermal: steam turbines, gas turbines; hydro: run-of-river, pumped storage; or nuclear.
