true or false

Environmental Science B Exam

The statement, Modern thermal power plants generate power basically the same way the old steam engines do, is true.

True.

Explanation:

Basically, the thermoelectric plants generate energy through a heated boiler where the water contained there will generate steam, that under high pressure, will move the turbines of a turbine of energy generator. Basically the same as the old steam engines generated energy.

After the movement of the turbines, the steam used goes directly to a condenser, where it will be subjected to low temperatures that will result in the transformation of the steam into water. This water returns to the boiler, starting the process once again.
