Power Plant 1

Electricity is the only form of energy which is easy to

• Produce

• Transport

• use and control

• all are correct

Which of the following plants are multipurpose:

• Thermal

• Hydraulic

• Nuclear

• Geothermal

Doubling time is

The total installation capacity of a power plant is not decided by

• First demand estimated

• Growth of demand anticipated

• Load Variation

• Reserve capacity

Chronological load curve is also called as load duration curve

• True

• False

Load Factor is

• Peak load/ average load

• average load/ peak load

• average load/rated plant capacity

• average load* maximum load

For a plant the peak load is 100 MW and the load factor is 0.4 then the average load will be

• 4

• 40

• 250

• 400

Capacity Factor is

• Peak load/ average load

• average load/ peak load

• average load/rated plant capacity

• average load* maximum load

Difference between load factor and capacity factor is an indicator of

• Connected load

• Peak load

• reserve capacity

• total connected demand

If the following loads are connected to a plant:

10, 20, 40, 60, and 30 MW.

The peak load is 80 MW. Then the diversity and demand factors will be

• 0.5 and 2

• 1 and 2

• 2 and 0.5

• 1 and 0.5
