It generates steam to drive the turbines which produce the power and then the steam condenses into water and is reheated and turned to steam and it drives the turbine and then it condenses into water and is reheated and turned to steam and it drive the turbines and condenses back into water.DO YOU GET THE PICTURE ??
Ooops sorry for being loud ,we have a new policy of being polite in the forum.

In passing may I gently remind one and all that the major atmospheric gas likely to influence temperatures or anything else for that matter is water vapour ,produced in prodigious quantities by our pals the oceans.Methane comes second or perhaps,as the jury is still out,some of the other gases which may be small in quantity but large in their effects.Thank you for flying TES Airways,we hope to see you on board again soon.
