How do you calculate load factor when plant machinery is connected with two supply source ie one is from govt. electricity board supply and another is from diesel generator set supply?

LOAD FACTOR = AVERAGE LOAD ÷ PEAK LOAD AVERAGE LOAD = KW-HRS (ENERGY) ÷ NO. OF OPERATING HOURS IF THE LOCAL PUBLIC ELECTRIC COMPANY CANNOT SUPPLY A CERTAIN PLANT DURING PEAK HOURS -- THE SOLUTION IS TO USE A SECONDARY PRIME POWER FROM THE ENDUSER TO MEET DEMAND LOAD. IF THE ARRANGEMENT IS 12 HRS. FOR NORMAL POWER AND 12 HRS. FOR GENSET -- THE LOAD FACTOR IS THE SAME IF THE AVERAGE LOAD IS CLEARLY DEFINED.

What are disadvantages of a drilling machine?
o Not good at cutting radial cuts o The machinery takes up a lot of space o Mills are very expensive to purchase and maintain o Uses a lot of electricity o Milling takes skill to use accurately
What is the use of machines called?
The use of machines is called operating machinery. You are using it for whatever porpose so therefore you are operating it. Whether it be operating heavy equipment down to using a computer.
How does an automatic weapon work?
With the advent of machinery in the 18th century, inventors were able to mechanize the process of shooting--allowing semi-automatic & automatic weapons to be developed. Most automatic weapons have the following cycle: 1- Firing (firing pin strikes primer, propellant burns forcing projectile down the barrel), 2- Extraction (spent brass casing is extracted from the chamber), 3- Ejection (spent brass casing is ejected clear of the weapon), 4- Chambering (a fresh round is fed into the weapon's chamber) The weapon cycles automatically. If only one bullet is fired per every pull of the trigger, the weapon is said to be semi-automatic. If more than one bullet is fired with every pull of the trigger, it is considered automatic.
Can stainless steel break freezing temperature?
Yes all substances break at cold enough temperatures (because at lower temperatures it slows down the atoms from vibrating so much that they practically become non moving crystal latices), stainless steal is an alloy meaning that it contains chemical components of a couple different metals, usually the coldest you can get without access to large machinery is about -200 degrees *applied temp* because you lose some to the consistency of the metal... ect... with liquid nitrogen usually will work, pour some on the metal let it cool down when it reaches anywhere near 200 degrees below, then apply a blunt force, hammer, or just a large force, it should break or shatter! hope this helps Chemical Engineer Dr. Menous PHD Chemical engineering
How are robots used today?
Robots are used today in a variety of fields. They are often used to carry cameras into areas where humans would be in danger, they are used to carry out surgical procedures, and they are used to build cars and other machinery.
What does Guatemala trade?
mineral fuel, machinery, cereals (corn,wheat), and electricity machinery.
What basic machinery is necessary to convert wind power to electricity?
first you start off with a wind turbine blade, which turns a generator, which creates energy. This energy can be put into use thru a battery bank or an inverter
What does an electronic pulse generator do?
An electronic pulse generator is used to produce rectangular pulses to power machinery. A microwave is an example of a machine that uses an electronic pulse generator.
How do you power machinery with hydropower?
A paddle wheel or turbine is turned by the moving water (the kinetic energy). This can be connected by a system of gears, wheels or even pulleys to turn a machine. This was how grain was ground into flour. After electricity was understood, the water spins turbines which generate electricity, and this electricity is used to run machines.
Was electricity part of the Industrial Revolution?
for the electrical machinery.
How do wind turbines transform the energy found in the wind?
Wind spins the blades which are connected to a shaft. The shaft turns a generator or alternator which produces electricity. A wind turbine is a rotating machine which converts the kinetic energy in wind into mechanical energy. If the mechanical energy is used directly by machinery, such as a pump or grinding stones, the machine is usually called a windmill. If the mechanical energy is then converted to electricity, the machine is called a wind generator, wind turbine, wind power unit (WPU), wind energy converter (WEC), or aerogenerator. They turn mechanical energy into electricity Most commonly through windmills. the wind pushes on a tilted blade causing it to rotate. A generator inside the windmill then turns the kinetic energy of the rotation into an electric current.
How is wind energy havested?
Wind energy is harvested by a windmill. It is also called a turbine. Windmills have been connected to machinery to grind grain or pump water. They are also connected to electric generators. The electricity is sent to a grid. Sometimes the electricity is used as it is produced. If a hydroelectric dam is nearby, the electricity can be used to back pump water and then hydroelectric energy is available when it is needed. That way wind energy is stored.
Why would the meter show 5 volts when the main leads to the machinery aren't connected?
There is probably a capacitor in the machine which holds a certain amount of electricity for helping deliver an amount of current at start-up.
What is a lever connected to machinery operated by foot called?
Treadle treadle
What settings do I need to set on a generator before I use it?
This depends on the type of generator you are using. It is recommended for you to follow the direction booklet before operating any machinery with which you are not familiar with.
Ways to convert nuclear energy?
I assume you want to convert it into useful energy. Nuclear energy will produce heat; this is usually used to heat pressurized water; the pressure escapes as steam. It escapes with force, and can move machinery - usually a generator that produces electricity.
