एक सामान्य भाप विद्युत संयंत्र की दक्षता कितनी होती है?

उत्तर और चरणबद्ध हल
सही उत्तर: B. 30-40%
संक्षिप्त व्याख्या

B — 30-40%। पारंपरिक भाप संयंत्र भाप परिस्थितियों, रीहीट/रीजनरेशन और तकनीक के अनुसार ईंधन ऊष्मा का लगभग 30–40% बिजली में बदलता है; शेष मुख्यतः कंडेंसर और चिमनी में निकल जाता है।

विस्तृत हल (मूल भाषा में)

Concept & Reasoning

The Rankine cycle is constrained by thermodynamic temperature limits and practical component losses. Modern supercritical units can exceed older subcritical values, but the exam's typical range 30–40% is the appropriate conventional figure among the options.

How to Solve It in the Exam

Conventional steam thermal plant → roughly one-third efficiency.

Important Exam Point

Do not confuse boiler efficiency with overall station efficiency.

Quick Trick

Conventional steam thermal plant → roughly one-third efficiency.

Common Mistake

Choosing 70–80%, which is far beyond typical standalone steam-cycle electrical efficiency.
