HERMITICALLY SEALED SOLAR WATER HEATER SYSTEM AND OPERATION METHOD FOR GENERATION OF ELECTRICITY FROM THERMAL POWER PLANT

摘要

The present invention discloses a hermitically sealed solar water heater system and operation method for generation of electricity from thermal power plant. Water storage tank (1) is hermitically sealed by diaphragm (13) to prevent feed water contamination. Solar energy based water heater (2) preheats feed water and raises water temperature close to the boiling point. The feed water heater by trapping the waste heat from the exhaust gases further heats the feed water and is pumped to the boiler and where it is converted to steam. The steam impinging on the turbine blades drives it and generates power from the generator. The steam condenses in the condenser and the water coming out of condenser is pumped to the overhead water tank and the process of power generation is continues uninterruptedly.
