Abstract
SHS investigation development is considered from the geographical and historical viewpoint. 3 stages are described. Within Stage 1 the work was carried out in the Department of the Institute of Chemical Physics in Chernogolovka where the scientific discovery had been made. At Stage 2 the interest to SHS arose in different cities and towns of the former USSR. Within Stage 3 SHS entered the international scene. Now SHS processes and products are being studied in more than 50 countries.
Abstract
The basics of thermodynamics required to evaluate a thermal power plant have been summarized. The first law of thermodynamics and the second law of thermodynamics are overviewed to solve the power plant in view of energy analysis and exergy analysis. The chemical reactions with solutions are explained to understand the solid fuel firing in a typical furnace in a power plant.
