Fig.4.4 shows a minimum power system.The system consists of an energy source,a prime mover,a generator,and a load.The energy may be coal,gas,or oil burned in a furnace to heat water and generator steam in a boiler.The prime mover may be a steam-driven turbine,a hydraulic or water wheel,or an internal combustion engine.Each one of these prime movers has the ability to convert energy in the form of heat,falling water,or fuel into rotation of a shaft,which in turn will drive the generator.The electrical load on the generator may be lights,motors,heaters,or other devices,alone or in combination.The control system functions to keep speed of the machines substantially constant and the voltage within prescribed limits,even the road may change.The control system may include a man stationed in the power plant who watches a set of meters on the generator-output terminals and makes the necessary adjustments manually.In a modern station,the control system is a servomechanism that senses a generator-output conditions and automatically makes the necessary changes in energy input and field current to hold the electrical output within certain specifications.
Modern power systems are usually large-scale,geographically distributed,and with hundreds to thousands of generators operating in parallel and synchronously.They may vary in size and structure from one to another,but they all have basic characteristics:
(1)Are comprised of three-phase AC systems operating essentially at constant voltage.Generation and transmission facilities use three-phase equipment.Industrial loads are invariably three-phase; single-phase residential and commercial loads are distributed equally among the phases so as to effectively from a balanced three-phase system.
(2)Use synchronous machines for generation of electricity.Prime moves convert the primary energy ( fossil,nuclear,and hydraulic) to mechanical energy that is,in turn,converted to electrical energy by synchronous generators.

The system consists of an energy source, a prime mover, a generator, and a load.
系统由一个能量源，一个主动力推进装置（汽轮机），一个发电机，和一个负载组成。
The energy may be coal, gas, or oil burned in a furnace to heat water and generator steam in a boiler.
燃炉中的能源可以是煤炭，天然气或者某种燃油，通过燃料的燃烧来加热锅炉中的水，使其产生蒸汽。
The prime mover may be a steam-driven turbine, a hydraulic or water wheel, or an internal combustion engine.
主动力推进装置可以是一个蒸汽驱动式汽轮机，液压式的叶轮或者内燃机。
Each one of these prime movers has the ability to convert energy in the form of heat, falling water, or fuel into rotation of a shaft, which in turn will drive the generator.
无论哪种推进装置，都可以实现将热能或水的势能通过转子的转轴，转换成机械能，以驱动发电机（发电）。
The electrical load on the generator may be lights, motors, heaters, or other devices, alone or in combination.

In a modern station, the control system is a servomechanism that senses a generator-output conditions and automatically makes the necessary changes in energy input and field current to hold the electrical output within certain specifications.
现代化的电厂中，控制系统通常采用伺服机械，通过传感器探测发电机的输出电量自动调节能量的输入，以实现发电机的输出电量保持在规定的范围内。（通俗的说，就是电不够了就赶快加点煤，电太多了，就减少点煤。人工监测就是人自己干活，伺服机械就是机器自己干活。）
Modern power systems are usually large-scale, geographically distributed, and with hundreds to thousands of generators operating in parallel and synchronously.
现代化的电站通常采用大规模，大规格，多台发电机并机同时工作的模式。
