Demand Factor Solution

STEP 0: Pre-Calculation Summary

Formula Used

Demand Factor = Maximum Demand/Connected Load
Demand Factor = Max Demand/Connected Load
This formula uses 3 Variables

Variables Used

Demand Factor - Demand Factor is the ratio of maximum demand to connected load.
Maximum Demand - (Measured in Watt) - Maximum Demand is defined as the peak power consumption of the load connected.
Connected Load - (Measured in Watt) - Connected Load is defined as the total load connected to the plant at any point of time.

STEP 1: Convert Input(s) to Base Unit

Maximum Demand: 1700 Kilowatt --> 1700000 Watt (Check conversion here)
Connected Load: 3600 Kilowatt --> 3600000 Watt (Check conversion here)

STEP 2: Evaluate Formula

Substituting Input Values in Formula

Demand Factor = Max Demand/Connected Load --> 1700000/3600000

Evaluating ... ...

Demand Factor = 0.472222222222222

STEP 3: Convert Result to Output's Unit

0.472222222222222 --> No Conversion Required

FINAL ANSWER

0.472222222222222 ≈ 0.472222 <-- Demand Factor

(Calculation completed in 00.004 seconds)
