Steam pressure in a steam power station, which is usually kept now-a-days is of the order of____________?
Correct answer: D. 150 kgf/cm2
- A. 20 kgf/cm2
- B. 50 kgf/cm2
- C. 100 kgf/cm2
- D. 150 kgf/cm2
Explanation
Modern steam-station boilers operate at high pressures, commonly of the order of 150 kgf/cm² in the textbook context of this question. Lower values such as 20 kgf/cm² represent older or smaller installations.
