Question

Sort the following units according to the process flow in solar thermal power plant to generate electricity:

• A. Reflectors
• B. Heat absorber
• C. Turbine
• D. Generator

Answer 1

The reflectors reflect all the Sun's energy to a vessel which is made up of heat absorbing material and water flows inside it. Water takes its heat and becomes steam. Steam then hits the turbine and makes it to rotate, which in turn activates the generator to produce electricity.
