For the circuit element of Problem 2.3, calculate (a) the instantaneous power absorbed, (b) the real power (state whether it is delivered or absorbed). (c) the reactive power (state whether delivered or absorbed). (d) the power factor (state whether lagging or leading). [Note: By convention the power factor cos() is positive. If | | is greater than 90, then the reference direction for current may be reversed, resulting in a positive value of cos() ].

Question No.14: A peak load on the thermal power plant is 75 MW. The loads having maximum demands of 35 MW, 20MW, 15 MW and 18MW are connected to the power plant. The capacity of the plant is 90 MW and annual load factor is 0.53. Calculate the average load on power plant, energy supplied per year, demand factor and diversity factor.
A substation rated 1250 kVA is operating at full load at 0.8 pf lagging and to carry an additional load of 170 kW at 0.85 pf lagging. With the mentioned power factor, the substation is experiencing inefficient electrical system: high power losses, high voltage drops in the electrical equipment, and high electricity bill. To reduce power losses and to reduce the electricity bill, power factor correction is to be of high importance and consideration. In this regard, the owner requested to prepare a summary report consisting of the following details: A rightful power phasor diagram.
