A 15 MW thermal power station has the following data: Cost of plant = $150 per kVA
Interest, taxes, insurance and depreciation rates = 25%
Cost of 11 kV-primary distribution system = $50000
Interest, taxes, insurance and depreciation rates = 10%
Annual fuel costs = $4×105
Annual operation costs = $20000
Annual plant (fixed) maintenance costs = $10000
Annual plant (variable) maintenance costs = $15000
Maximum demand = 10 MW
Annual load factor = 50%
Power factor at generating power station terminals = 0.85 lagging
Determine the electrical supply tariff per unit at the consumers'
terminals, where:
- Plant reserve power is 10% over maximum generated power
demand.
- Efficiency of primary distribution system is 97%.
Find the percentage saving in electrical supply tariff served for the
consumers, if the load factor is raised to 75%.

Amass of m 1.5 kg of steam is contained in a closed rigid container. initially the pressure and temperature of the steam are: p 1.5 mpa and t 240°c (superheated state), respectively. then the temperature drops to t2= 100°c as the result of heat transfer to the surroundings. determine: a) quality of the steam at the end of the process, b) heat transfer with the surroundings. for: p1.5 mpa and t 240°c: enthalpy of superheated vapour is 2900 kj/kg, specific volume of superheated vapour is 0. 1483 m/kg, while for t 100°c: enthalpy of saturated liquid water is 419kj/kg, specific volume of saturated liquid water is 0.001043m/kg, enthalpy of saturated vapour is 2676 kj/kg, specific volume of saturated vapour is 1.672 m/kg and pressure is 0.1 mpa.
