Problem 2) Thermal and Electrical Load Analysis A facility has the following monthly average electrical and thermal requirements. a) Complete the H/P column. b) Plot the electrical power (kW) and the thermal energy (kWcquiv ) as functions of the month of the year. This is two plots. On each plot, show the base load with a horizontal, dashed line. c) Complete the following plot which will illustrate various cogeneration designs. First, show the base loads (power and thermal) on the plot with vertical and horizontal dashed lines. Second, show the cogeneration characteristic lines for H/P ratios of 0.3,0.5 and 0.8. Third, identify five (5) operating points that satisfy at least one of the load conditions. d) Describe how each of the five (5) operating points would be able to satisfy both power and thermal loads. In other words, what additional equipment or considerations must be used to satisfy all loads. e) For the cogeneration system with a characteristic H/P of 0.5, discuss the issue of non-base load operation. In other words, discuss how you would meet the loads during the full year.
