You'll need to provide a little more information in order to have your question answered properly.  AC or DC? Input voltage?  Fixed or variable output voltage? If variable, over what range? If fixed, what is the desired output voltage?  Output current?  How critical is the load regulation?\n\nAs you can see, the answer to your simple question can be a bit complicated :)

Wind power plant output depends on wind speed. Such speeds cannot be accurately predicted over daily periods because the wind fluctuates from minute-to-minute and hour-to-hour. Consequently, electric utility system planners and operators are concerned that variations in wind plant output may increase the operating costs of the system. This concern arises because the system must maintain balance between the aggregate demand for electric power and the total power generated by all power plants feeding the system. The operators' concerns are compounded because unlike conventional power plants that are generally under their control and thus are dispatchable, the wind plants are controlled by nature. \n\nIt should be understood that the key issue is not whether a system with a significant amount of wind capacity can be operated reliably, but rather to what extent the system operating costs are increased by the variability of the wind.

Maybe the one on this page will suffice,\nhttp://science.howstuffworks.com/nuclear-power3.htm\nAnd its animated, thats a bonus, but it isnt really a flow chart.

A steam engine.  Please, the  1800s are over.  Have you heard of solar power and/or wind power?

A Captive Power Plant (CPP) supplies some or all of the electric power need by an industrial plant to avoid loss during blackouts and to provide a better price structure for electrical needs than a SEB (State Electric Board) grid.  Steel and cement makers are apt to rely on CPP's.

hi zinkblind .\nI'll send you a CD contains important inf. about scada.

great question. but u can witness these type in powerplants only. tat to it will be a.c. and not d.c. these have a prime mover of steam turbine. it will be largest ever found and if it d.c. it will have lots of losses and usually they produce a.c. go to the powerplants and visit the generators. u can use the formula n=(120f/p) where n is the rpm and p is the no.of poles and f is the frequency. they may have salient pole type rotor. i don know the dimensions. but the conductors are not cooled by air but with nitrogen..

Not sure. I use to be an electronics Tech but that was before SMPS existed. I'm guessing you might find something on the link below:

I take it they won't allow you (for some unGodly reason) to tour your local water utility company, hence the reason for your question?? It's a shame but since that appears to be the case, i'll run it down for ya. All modern systems (unless designed by buffoons) are both, in series , parallel systems with built in redundencies to help isolate sectors with problems but yet still allow adequate & equal water distribution/pressure throughout; Why do you ask??

Just as with any other generator, electrical power is proportional to shaft torque and speed.  A wind turbine generator is designed to operate in a certain speed and torque range.  The design of the turbine and pitching of the blade angle keep it operating in this range.  It's actually wind speed that forces the control of torque/speed up to a certain maximum level, so yes, electrical output is directly coupled to wind speed and energy capture of the wind.  \n\nThe generators in wind turbines do generaly require some amount of excitation current to regulate power output.  This is really what allows wind turbines to operate at different power outputs and not a single fixed rating.

Typically, power transmission is between the power plant and a substation near a populated area. This is distinct from electricity distribution, which is concerned with the delivery from the substation to the consumers. Due to the large amount of power involved, transmission normally takes place at high voltage (110 kV or above). Electricity is usually sent over long distance through overhead power transmission lines (such as those in the photo on the right). Underground power transmission is used only in densely populated areas (such as large cities) because of the high capacitive and resistive losses incurred.

facts devices is :flixible AC transmission systems.\nit's an electronic devices that control pwer flows in the system and keep the stability of the system.\n\nfacts devices usually depends on there location.

reduce the lenght of transmission lines and locate power generation to local areas to be served.bigger is not always better over half of the electricity generated is lost in trans mission lines that stretch over great distances before reaching point of use .   design a system that is local in service area that meets the needs of the consumers +20% to account for growth. Realize the impact of new growth and expand plant everytime growth reaches 90% off maximum out put this would tie community growth directly to sevices . create new jobs and lower the cost of providing elec.
