Maximum Demand given Load Factor Solution

STEP 0: Pre-Calculation Summary

Formula Used

Maximum Demand = Average Load/Load Factor
Max Demand = Avg Load/Load Factor
This formula uses 3 Variables

Variables Used

Maximum Demand - (Measured in Watt) - Maximum Demand is defined as the peak power consumption of the load connected.
Average Load - (Measured in Watt) - Average Load is the average load occurring on the power station in a given period known as an average load.
Load Factor - Load Factor is the ratio of average load to the maximum demand during a given period.

STEP 1: Convert Input(s) to Base Unit

Average Load: 1105 Kilowatt --> 1105000 Watt (Check conversion here)
Load Factor: 0.65 --> No Conversion Required

STEP 2: Evaluate Formula

Substituting Input Values in Formula

Max Demand = Avg Load/Load Factor --> 1105000/0.65

Evaluating ... ...

Max Demand = 1700000

STEP 3: Convert Result to Output's Unit

1700000 Watt -->1700 Kilowatt (Check conversion here)

FINAL ANSWER

1700 Kilowatt <-- Maximum Demand

(Calculation completed in 00.004 seconds)

Wind Power

Go Wind Power = 0.5*Plant Efficiency*Air Density*Blade Area*Wind Speed^3

Utilisation Factor of Plant

Go Utilisation Factor = Maximum Demand/Plant Capacity

Unit Generated per Annum

Go Units Generated = Maximum Demand*Load Factor*8760

Diversity Factor

Go Diversity Factor = Combined Demand/Maximum Demand

Plant Use Factor

Go Plant Use Factor = Maximum Demand/Plant Capacity

Reserve Capacity

Go Reserve Capacity = Plant Capacity-Maximum Demand

Plant Capacity Factor

Go Capacity Factor = Average Demand/Plant Capacity

Maximum Demand using Demand Factor

Go Maximum Demand = Demand Factor*Connected Load

Demand Factor

Go Demand Factor = Maximum Demand/Connected Load

Operation Factor

Go Operation Factor = Working Time/Total Time

Load Factor given Average Load and Maximum Demand

Go Load Factor = Average Load/Maximum Demand

Maximum Demand given Load Factor

Go Maximum Demand = Average Load/Load Factor

Average Load

Go Average Load = Maximum Demand*Load Factor

Coincidence Factor

Go Coincidence Factor = 1/Diversity Factor

Average Load for Load Curve

Go Average Load = Load Curve Area/24

Maximum Demand given Load Factor Formula

Maximum Demand = Average Load/Load Factor
Max Demand = Avg Load/Load Factor

What is the condition for the Load Factor?

Practically the value for the Load Factor is less than 1. A high load factor indicates that load is using the electric system more efficiently, whereas consumers or generators that underutilize the electric distribution will have a low load factor.

How to Calculate Maximum Demand given Load Factor?

Maximum Demand given Load Factor calculator uses Maximum Demand = Average Load/Load Factor to calculate the Maximum Demand, Maximum Demand given Load Factor is defined as the maximum raise in demand. It is generally measured in MW. Maximum Demand is denoted by Max Demand symbol.

How to calculate Maximum Demand given Load Factor using this online calculator? To use this online calculator for Maximum Demand given Load Factor, enter Average Load (Avg Load) & Load Factor (Load Factor) and hit the calculate button.
