Maximum Demand using Demand Factor Solution

STEP 0: Pre-Calculation Summary

Formula Used

Maximum Demand = Demand Factor*Connected Load
Max Demand = Demand Factor*Connected Load
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.
Demand Factor - Demand Factor is the ratio of maximum demand to connected load.
Connected Load - (Measured in Watt) - Connected Load is defined as the total load connected to the plant at any point of time.

STEP 1: Convert Input(s) to Base Unit

Demand Factor: 0.47 --> No Conversion Required
Connected Load: 3600 Kilowatt --> 3600000 Watt (Check conversion here)

STEP 2: Evaluate Formula

Substituting Input Values in Formula

Max Demand = Demand Factor*Connected Load --> 0.47*3600000

Evaluating ... ...

Max Demand = 1692000

STEP 3: Convert Result to Output's Unit

1692000 Watt -->1692 Kilowatt (Check conversion here)

FINAL ANSWER

1692 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 using Demand Factor Formula

Maximum Demand = Demand Factor*Connected Load
Max Demand = Demand Factor*Connected Load

What is responsibility factor?

Responsibility factor is often used in guiding demand side management. Utilities often get charged for its contribution to the peak of independent system operator. To avoid a high charge, a utility has to reduce the responsibility factor. This can be done by implementing various programs that help shift the peak. Similarly, responsibility factor is also used in rate making. A customer with high peak demand may not get high demand charge if the peak occurs during off-peak period of the utility system load.
