Question

A small generating plant of 100 KW capacity uses gas of a calorific value of 4000 KJ/m
3.The volume of gas required per hour when the plant is running at full load condition
is 450 m 3 / hr. Find: (a) Input Power and (b) Overall Efficiency of the plant

Answer 1

Answer:

Answer Expert Verified. Small generating plant of 100KW capacity uses a gas calorific value 4000KJ/m^3 . The volume of gas required per hour when the plant is running at full load condition is 450 m^3/hr find 1.

Answer 2

Answer:

Explanation:

Small generating plant of 100KW capacity uses a gas calorific value of 4000KJ/m^3

The volume of gas required per hour when the plant is running at full load condition is 450 m^3/hr

Input power $=100kw$

Efficiency = $\frac{\frac{4000}{450} }{100}$

               $=0.0888$
