Read MoreHeat is transferred to steam pipes located in the top region of the boiler, these being initially fed with hot water from the boiler feed pump; the hot water then gets converted to steam at high temperature and pressure. This steam is fed to the steam turbines which are the prime movers for electric generators. 89
