Chapter 1, Problem 1.6P
For the business whose monthly electrical energy use in described in Problem 1-5, estimate the average rate of energy use in kw, assuming it uses energy only from 7:00 A.M. to 6:00 P.M., Monday through Friday in a 31-day month. Assume that the month starts on a Monday to give 22 working days that month. Calculate the ratio of the peak demand set during that month to the average rate of energy use. What reasons would likely cause the ratio to be high?

Compare the coal throughputs for a small-scale experiment that uses 10 mg of coal in 6 seconds, and a single boiler in a large commercial-scale central-station electric generating plant. Assume: the commercial facility has a total output of 1,020 MW e supplied by three boilers of equal capacity; the boiler has a heat rate of (8,980 Btu th /hr)/(kW e ) based on fuel HHV, and fires coal with a gross heating value (i.e., HHV) of 14,000 Btu th /lb.arrow_forward1.
