Transformer

Well, the most interesting concept to be known in the domain of electrical is the transformation of electrical energy from one form to another. But, Why to transform. We all know that we use AC currents in many of the applications such as in workplaces, small industries and houses as AC voltages can be simply generated and transformed into increased voltages. Even AC voltages can be easily distributed across the nation through cables for extended … [Read more...]

What is a Cooling Tower – Types, Working, Uses

September 2, 2019 By Wat Electrical

cooling_towers

Generally, in a steam power plant, boilers are used for the production of steam by heat water. The heated water is converted to steam which in turn converted to Electrical Energy by rotating a turbine. The steam generated after this operation instead of exhausting to the atmosphere can be reutilized. For utilization, we depend upon the process of condensation. The steam generated is sent to a cooling tower to convert the steam into cold water. The data of … [Read more...]

Fire Tube Boiler – Types, Operation & Uses

August 30, 2019 By Wat Electrical

Steam boilers were used earlier for the production of steam in trains. Later on, with the development in the construction of these boilers, these boilers are classified into different types based on the generation of steam. The steam generated should be of high pressure in order to increase efficiency. So, to generate more steam, steam boilers are classified as water tube and fire tube boilers. The water tube boiler generates more steam of high pressure … [Read more...]

What is a Water Tube Boiler – Explain its Construction & Working

August 28, 2019 By Wat Electrical

Close_view_of_water_tube_boiler

A Boiler is a device that produces steam by boiling water. This boiling of water is classified into different to the machine. The steam from the boiler in turn rotates a turbine such that it drives a generator. This generator changes this rotational ME to EE. The amount of energy that is developed in this process to supplied to the bus bars. From Bus bars the energy is transmitted to several other areas through the transmission lines. In this article, we … [Read more...]

What is Power Factor – Importance, Methods Used to Improve It.

August 26, 2019 By Wat Electrical

power-factor

The generated power in a power system should be utilized without wasting. The amount of power that is generated at the station is not received at the end point because of wastage of power. This wastage of power is mainly because of the reactive power absorption. This affects the power factor (pf) of the system. To increase the reliability and life expectancy of the system this pf plays a crucial role. To utilize the maximum amount of power that is … [Read more...]
