The superheated steam from the boiler enters the steam turbine. The superheated steam temperature is about 6000C at a pressure of 30 Mpa(300 kg/cm2) The steam expands in the turbine causing the turbine blades to rotate. After doing mechanical work on the blades and loosing its energy, the steam becomes wet and the pressure of steam becomes less. The wet steam passes through a condenser where it completely becomes water. The condensed water that has a temperature of 300C to 400C is collected in a tank called hot well. The water from the hot well is fed into the boiler through the economiser. The economiser preheats the water before entering the boiler. The economiser receives its heat from the flue gases leaving the boiler . Preheating the feed water in the economiser increases the boiler efficiency and helps quicker production of steam.
