Example 2
A two plant system having a steam plant near load
center and a hydro plant at e remote location is
shown in Figure 3. The Load is 700 MW for 14 hours
a day and 500 MW for 10 hours a day. The
characteristics of units are:
• C1=(24+0.02P1)P1 L.E./hr
• W2=(6+0.0025 P2) P2 m3/sec
• Loss coefficient B22= 0.0005.
