2. Electric arc furnace - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electric_arc_furnace

   An electric arc furnace ( EAF) is a furnace that heats material by means of an electric arc . Industrial arc furnaces range in size from small units of approximately one-tonne capacity (used in foundries for producing cast iron products) up to about 400-tonne units used for secondary steelmaking. Arc furnaces used in research laboratories and ...

3. Gas-fired power plant - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gas-fired_power_plant

   A gas-fired power plant is a type of fossil fuel power station in which chemical energy stored in natural gas, which is mainly methane, is converted successively into: thermal energy, mechanical energy and, finally, electrical energy. Although they cannot exceed the Carnot cycle limit for conversion of heat energy into useful work, the excess ...

4. Thermoelectric generator - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thermoelectric_generator

   A thermoelectric generator ( TEG ), also called a Seebeck generator, is a solid state device that converts heat (driven by temperature differences) directly into electrical energy through a phenomenon called the Seebeck effect [1] (a form of thermoelectric effect ). Thermoelectric generators function like heat engines, but are less bulky and ...

6. Fossil fuel power station - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fossil_fuel_power_station

   A fossil fuel power station is a thermal power station which burns a fossil fuel, such as coal, oil, or natural gas, to produce electricity. Fossil fuel power stations have machinery to convert the heat energy of combustion into mechanical energy, which then operates an electrical generator. The prime mover may be a steam turbine, a gas turbine ...

7. Thermal power station - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thermal_power_station

   Thermal power station. A thermal power station is a type of power station in which heat energy is converted to electrical energy. In a steam-generating cycle heat is used to boil water in a large pressure vessel to produce high-pressure steam, which drives a steam turbine connected to an electrical generator.
