3. Generator – It is coupled with the turbine rotor and converts the mechanical energy of the turbine
to the electrical energy.
Boiler Condenser
4. Condenser – Condenser is a heat exchanger in which cooling water is circulated through the
tubes. The exhaust steam from turbine enters the condenser where it is cooled and converted to
condensate (water). The use of condensers improves the efficiency of the power plant by decreasing
