Economic of power generation 6

 Question = A generating station has the following data : installed capacity = 300 MW , capacity factor = 50% or 0.5 , annual load factor = 60% or 0.6 , annual cost of fuel , oil etc (R) =  RS 9×10⁷ , capital cost (F) = RS 10⁹ , annual interest and depreciation (F) = 10% , 

• Calculate (1) the minimum reserve capacity of the station and (2) the cost per kWh generated ?

Solution = reserve capacity = installed capacity - maximum demand , 

» is given , Installed capacity = 300 MW , 

» M.D. = ( capacity factor × installed capacity ) ÷ Load factor , 

» capacity factor ( c f. ) = Average demand (A.D.) ÷ Installed capacity (I C.) ,  equations (1) AND , 

Load factor = average demand ( A.D.) ÷ maximum demand ( M.D.) , equations (2)

» Dividing 1 and 2 we get , 

» C.F. ÷ L.F. = ( A.D. ÷ I.C. ) ÷ ( A.D. ÷ M.D.) ,

» after calculate = C.F. ÷ L.F. = M.D. ÷ I.C. ,

» So , Maximum demand = ( C.F. × I.C. ) ÷ L.F. , 

» M D.= ( 0.5 × 300 MW ) ÷ 0.6 , = 250 MW , 

» So , reserve capacity = 300 - 250 = 50 MW , answer ✓ 

(2) Cost per unit generated = total annual charges ÷ unit generated per annum , 

» so , unit generated = M D. × L.F. × hours in a years ,  = 250 × 10³ MW × 0.6 × 8760 , = 1314 × 10⁶ kWh , 

( 24 hours × 365 days = 8760 days ) , 

» total annual charges = annual fixed charges + annual running charges , 

» annual fixed charges = annual interest and depreciation × capital cost , = 0.1 × 10⁹ ,= ( 1 ÷ 10 ) × 10⁹ , = 10⁸ RS , 

» is given , annual running charges = 9 × 10⁷ RS , 

» So , total annual charges = ( 10⁸ + 9 × 10⁷ ) RS , or  ( 10 × 10⁷ + 9 × 10⁷ ) = 19 × 10⁷ RS ,

» Cost per kWh = ( 19 × 10⁷ RS) ÷ (1314 × 10⁶ ) = 0.14 RS or (×100) , 14 paise , answer ✓

  Question = एक balanced load , 3 phase , star connected , resistance load में प्रति phase 1000 Ω का resistance लगा हुआ है। जो कि 230 volt/ phase 50c/s supply के साथ जुड़ा हुआ है। लाइन current , cos Ø और power factor मालूम करें ? Solution = is given.  R = 1000 Ω , V L  = 230 v/pH.. , f = 50 c/s , Formula = I L  = V L  ÷ R » 230 ÷ 1000 , » 0.23 ampere , answer ✓ » W= V×I » 230 × 0.23 » 52.9 watt, तो wattage in 3 phase = 3 × 52.9 =  158.7 watt , answer ✓  » Cos Ø = Input ÷ √3 × V L  × I L  ,  » 158.7÷ 1.732 × 230 × 0.23 , » 1.72 या 1(unity ) (क्योंकि power factor 1 से अधिक नहीं होता है)            (Circuit में resistance load हैं इसलिए PF unity होगा।) Answer ✓

Electrical bill निकालना,

  Question = किसी electrical circuit में 15 lights point प्रत्येक 60 watt, 8 light point प्रत्येक 40 watt , 6 fan प्रत्येक 40 watt और एक pump 1/2 HP का हैं।light और fan का 50% load प्रतिदिन 4 hours और pump प्रतिदिन 3 hours काम करता है। 33paisa/kWh unit की दर से एक महीने के लिए बिल बनाओ?  Solution = (1) 15 light point प्रत्येक 60w= 15×60= 900 watt,  (2) 8 light point प्रत्येक 40w = 8×40=320 watt, (3) 6 fan point प्रत्येक 40= 6×40= 240 watt,  (4) 1/2 hp का pump =746/2 = 373 watt, Lights और fan का Total watt =900+320+240= 1460 Watt,  Lights और fan का 50% load=1460×50÷100;  730 watt,       so, watthour= 730×4= 2920 wh, pump का watt hours =373×3= 1119 watt hours,   Total kWh= 2920+1119     = 4039                                                   1000                1000 =4.039 kWh;        = 30 दिन के kwh = 30×4.039,. =121.17 kWh,  खर्च = 121.17×33 = 3998.61 Paisa या 39.98 ₹, answer ✓

  Question = एक 9.15 meter लंबी copper की bus-bar का resistance 0.000168Ω हैं। यदि इसका कटाक्ष क्षेत्रफल 7.62×1.27 cm² हो तो copper का specific resistance मालूम करें ? Solution= Length=9.15 meter, R=0.000168Ω, Area= 7.62×1.27cm²,  = spe... Resis... (rho) ? ,  Formula, Rho= R×A/L, =0.000168×7.62×1.27/9.15 Ω cm, (9.15meter ×100=915cm), और (μ=10⁶) =168×762×127×100/915×10⁶×100×100×100;  =1016127/ 571875×10⁶;  =1.77/10⁶;  = 1.77 μΩ cm,  answer ✓ Question =एक copper की wire का specific resistance (rho)1.79 μΩ cm हैं, यदि इसका व्यास या diameter 0.091 cm हैं और length 3.66 cm हैं। इसका resistance मालूम करें? Solution = rho=1.79 μΩ cm, dia= 0.091 cm, l=3.66 cm, R=?  Formula =R= ρL/A, =A=πd²/4; (π=3.14)  =A=3.14×0.091²/4;   =314×91×91/4×100×1000×1000, =2600234/4×10⁸ ; =650058.5/10⁸ ; =0.00650085 cm²,  इसलिए, R= 1.79×3.66/10⁶ ×0.0065;   =179×366×10000÷10⁶ ×65×100×100;  =1007.9÷10⁶: =0.001 Ω, answer ✓
