EE415 Lec Midterm Examination

This document contains details about an EE415 midterm examination, including: 1. Multiple choice questions covering topics like transmission line components, power plant costs, and effects of load power factor on line losses. 2. Practice problems calculating things like thermal efficiency of a steam power plant, plant and load factors for a power station, required apparent power rating for a distribution transformer serving multiple loads, and determining the appropriate winding voltages and kVA rating for a single phase pad mount transformer. 3. The examination contains both objective multiple choice sections and problems requiring calculations on topics relating to power generation, transmission, distribution, and plant/load factors.

II. Problems:
1. A steam power station has a coal consumption of 0.54 kg/kW-hr and a load factor of
50%. If the heating value of coal is 6400 kcal/kg. determine the thermal efficiency, the
energy generated per annum and the coal consumption per annum. Maximum
demand is 20000 kW.
2. Two turbo-generator in a central station are rated 600 kW. The average power load is
250 kW and the maximum demand is 1000 kW. Calculate the plant factor and the load
factor of the station.
3. A distribution transformer is required to serve the following connected loads.
Load 1: 10 kW , 0.95 lagging power factor
Load 2: 11 kW, 0.95 lagging power factor
Load 3: 15 kW, 0.95 lagging power factor
Determine the minimum required apparent power rating of the transformer,
assuming a demand factor of 0.73 for three loads.
4. A single phase pad mount transformer is to be used to supply the following estimated
loads:
Load 1: 7 kW, 0.9 lagging power factor
Load 2: 12 kW, 0.9 lagging power factor
Load 3: 5 kW, 0.9 lagging power factor
Load 4: 23 kW, 0.8 lagging power factor

circuit consist of one phase of a 12.47 kV, three phase MGN circuit. Assume that the
demand factor for the four loads is 0.72. Determine the appropriate winding voltage
designation for the high and low voltage sides and the kVA for this transformer.
