SECTION-A
Q1. Write Short Notes on :
  1. What are the functions of Central Electricity authority?
  2. What is diversity factor? How it is important?
  3. What are the effects of low power factor?
  4. What is necessity of long term load forecasting?
  5. Which type of plant has highest capital cost and why?
  6. Compare shunt capacitors and synchronous condensers.
  7. What is difference between present worth and capitalised cost?
  8. What is equal incremental cost criterion?
  9. For which type of countries is hydro-thermal economical?
 10. Between which quantities are mass curve and load curve plotted?
                   SECTION-B
Q2. Attempt any FOUR questions.                                  5×4=20
  2. Write a descriptive note on organization of power sector in India.
  3. A 400 V, 3-phase installation draws a current of 50A at 0.8 power factor lagging under full load conditions. It is desired to install a synchronous motor to raise the full load overall power factor to 0.95 lagging. The synchronous motor will drive a 25hp (metric) load at an efficiency of 0.9. Find the kVA and power factor of synchronous motor.
 4. Discuss straight line and fixed percentage methods of depreciation.
 5. What do you mean by economic comparison of alternators?
 6. The load curve of an electrical system is shown below and is linear with the following values at different times of the day. The load is in MW. First row is showing time and second load is showing load.

12 mid night | 5am | 9am | 6pm | 8pm | 10pm | 12 mid night |
50 | 50 | 100 | 100 | 150 | 80 | 50 |
Plot chronological load curve, load duration curve and mass curve for the above mentioned data. Find the energy required by system in one day and calculate the system daily load factor
                   SECTION-C
Q3. Attempt any TWO questions.               2×10=20
 7. Discuss the benefits of cogeneration.
 8. a) Write short descriptive note on aquatic impacts.
b) Discuss the iterative procedure to solve the co-ordination techniques.
  9.The fuel inputs F1 and F2 in kCal/hour for units 1 and 2 are given by :           F1 = (2P1 + 0.005P12 + 20)104
   F2 = (1.5P2 + 0.01P22 + 30)104
  where P1 and P2 are outputs in MW.
   1.Plot the variation of input with output for the two units as the load varies from 20 MW to 100 MW in each case.
   ii. Find heat rate in k Cal/MW-hour for each unit and plot it against
  iii. If the fuel cost is 1 per 10,000 kCal, calculate incremental fuel cost in Rs. Per MW-hr for each unit and plot it against output.
