4. Thermal Power Plant
 A Thermal Power Plant converts the heat
energy of coal into electrical energy
 Power plant in which the prime mover
is steam driven
 Thermal Power Plants constitute 75.43%
of the total installed captive and non-captive
power generation in India
 In thermal generating stations coal, oil, natural gas etc. are employed as primary sources of
energy

8. Control and Instrumentation
 Control and instrumentation in any process industry,
can be compared to the nerve system in the human being
 C&I, as the name indicates, is a branch in engineering
which deals with various measurement, indication,
transmission and control in different technical field.
 The main work is to observe, control and manipulate
electrical as well as non-electrical quantities like
temperature, pressure, vibrations.

12. Conclusion
 Industrial training being an integral part of engineering curriculum provides not only easier
understanding but also helps acquaint an individual with technologies.
 It exposes an individual to practical aspect of all things which differ considerably from
theoretical models
 The training at NTPC Singrauli was all together an exotic experience, since work, culture and
mutual cooperation was excellent here
