摘要：This paper describes a miniature steam power plant made with the boiler and the water pump from anold starch iron. It uses boiler as vaporizer to vaporize the water it receives from the water pump. Then the steam isinjected on the turbine fan making it twirl. The voltage generated by the fan is enough to lighten a couple of LEDs. Awooden case with a chimney encloses all the referred devices. Today, most of the electricity produced throughout theworld is from steam power plants. However, electricity is being produced by some other power generation sources suchas hydropower, gas power, bio-gas power, solar cells, etc. This paper deals with steam cycles used in power plants.Thermodynamic analysis of the Rankine cycle has been undertaken to enhance the efficiency and reliability of steampower plants. The thermodynamic deviations resulting in non-ideal or irreversible functioning of various steam powerplant components have been identified. Steam power plants are located at the water and coal available places. Steam isutilized to run the turbines, in turn gives the power to generator and generator produces the electricity, the electricity isutilized for lighting, running the industries, for lighting of offices, schools, etc. Boiler is an important component of thepower plants, it produces the steam.
