Oil is transformed into electricity through a process called thermal power generation. In this method, oil is burned in a combustion chamber to produce heat, which converts water into steam. This steam is then used to drive a turbine connected to a generator. As the turbine spins, it generates mechanical energy that is converted into electrical energy by the generator. Additionally, the choice of oil, including types like diesel or heavy fuel oil, can affect the efficiency and environmental impact of the conversion process. The heat energy contained in the oil plays a crucial role in generating the steam necessary for turbine operation, highlighting the important connection between industrial oils and electricity production.
