NON-CONVENTIONAL POWER PLANT
Classification of power plants Conventional steam Diesel Hydro electric Nuclear Non- conventional Solar Wind Tidal & wave Geo thermal
NON-CONVENTIONAL POWER PLANT RENEWABLE ENERGY WIND POWER PLANT TIDAL POWER PLANT SOLAR POWER PLANT GEO THERMAL POWER PLANT
WIND POWER PLANT Wind is caused due to absorption of solar energy on the earth surface and rotation of earth about its own axis and around the sun. Because of this alternate heating and cooling occurs and difference in pressure is obtained and the air movement is caused.
WORKING PRINCIPLE Kinetic energy Electrical energy Mechanical energy Motion of wind Mechanical energy Rotating wind turbine Electrical energy Generator
LAYOUT OF WIND POWER PLANT
Wind Power Plant
Wind Power Plant
COMPONENTS OF WIND POWER PLANT WIND TURBINE OR ROTOR( rotor is nothing but fan blades or vanes that are use to create mechanical energy. GEAR BOX (the gear box coupled to the rotor shaft increases the speed . GENERATOR SUPPORTING STRUCTURE
Types of wind mills Horizontal axis type Single blade type,double blade,multi blade type Vertical axis type Blade material (aluminium,sheet metal)
ADVANTAGES It Is Free From Pollution And Clean Power Production At Low Cost Maintenance Cost Low No Fuel Cost,and Transportation Problems.
DISADVANTAGES Wind Energy Is Not Continuously Available And Fluctuating In Nature. Large Land Area Is Required. Intial Cost Is High Noisy In Operation
TIDAL POWER PLANT Tide is a periodic rise and fall of water level of the sea that occurs due to the attraction of sea water by the moon. Tides contain large amount of potential energy and is used for power generation the up and down movement of water is used to drive a hydraulic turbine by fitting and emptying a basin. the turbine is connected with a generator to produce power
WORKING PRINCIPLE POTENTIAL ENERGY MECHANICAL ENERGY ELECTRICAL ENERGY
COMPONENTS USED TURBINE GENERATOR TYPES OF TIDAL POWER PLANT HIGH TIDE LOW TIDE
HIGH TIDE AND LOW TIDE
ADVANTAGES LARGE LAND AREA IS NOT REQUIRED FREE FROM POLLUTION AND NO FUEL REGUIRED TIDAL ENERGY IS INEXHAUSTIBLE IN NATURE.
DISADVANTAGES Machinery Can Be Corroded Due To Corrosive Sea Water The Navigation Is Obstructed. The Output Is Not Uniform Due To Variation In Tidal Range.
