It has been desired to install a diesel power station to supply power in a suburban area having the following particulars: (i) 1000 houses with average connected load of 1.5 kW in each house. The demand factor and diversity factor being 0.4 and 2.5 respectively. (ii) 10 factories having overall maximum demand of 90 kW. (iii) 7 tubewells of 7 kW each and operating together in the morning. The diversity factor among above three types of consumers is 1.2. What should be the minimum capacity of power station?
Some parameters are given related to your student ID numbers. These are:V1 = XXX V (first 3 numbers, e.g. 170 V (RMS)) f1 = XXX Hz (assume that your last number is ‘y’, then f1 = (y+1)*10 Hz, e.g. if y=2 then f1=(2+1)*10=30Hz)1) A single-phase load has an active power of P = 2 kW at V1 V @f1Hz and the power factor is cosφ = 0.75. This motor iscompensated to cosφ = 0.85 using a parallel capacitor (the load is modelled as series RL). Determine:a. Reactive power and apparent power before compensation using power factorb.

An industrial assembly hall is continuously lightedby one hundred 40-W mercury vapor lamps suppliedby a 120-V and 60-Hz source with a power factor of0.65. Due to the low power factor, a 25 percent penaltyis applied at billing. If the average price of 1 kWh is$0.01 and the capacitor’s average price is $50 permillifarad, compute after how many days of operationthe penalty billing covers the price of the power factorcorrection capacitor. (To avoid penalty, the powerfactor must be greater than 0.85.)
