Power plant has properties not as fast as diesel power plants in taking over power in a short time, because it takes an adjustment. Electric energy generation is mostly done by means of rotating synchronous generator in order to get power alternating current three-phase.<\/p>\n
Mechanical energy is used rotating electric generator derived from the engine driving an electric generator or so-called prime movers (primover). Engine driving an electric generator that is widely used is diesel engines, steam turbines, water turbines, and gas turbines.<\/p>\n
Engine driving a generator to convert the mechanical energy of primary energy menjadli drive generators. The process of converting primary energy into mechanical energy raises waste byproducts and noise that needs to be controlled so as not to cause environmental problems. From an economic point techniques, the component cost is the largest electric power supply generation cost, in particular fuel costs.<\/p>\n
Therefore, a variety of techniques to reduce the cost of fuel continues to grow, both in terms of generating units individually and in terms of the operation of electric power systems in an integrated manner. Figure I.3 shows an example of the power generator comersial in India.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
