Very interesting information. Thank you.
What would you say is the typical efficiency of a modern gasoline car? Say, one that uses 7L/100km on average?
Also, why do the coal plants with higher efficiency so expensive? I've read somewhere that higher heat would be better, but the steel that can resist it, is too expensive. Is that correct?
- pkolaczk 9y agoI'm not am expert on turbines, but generally the turbine efficiency is directly related to the temperature and pressure difference between the inlet and outlet. Hence bigger plants have typically higher efficiencies. Bigger turbines have also more stages, so not only they have to withstand higher pressure, but simply there are more parts.
