Load Factor given Average Load and Maximum Demand Solution

STEP 0: Pre-Calculation Summary

Formula Used

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

Variables Used

Load Factor - Load Factor is the ratio of average load to the maximum demand during a given period.
Average Load - (Measured in Watt) - Average Load is the average load occurring on the power station in a given period known as an average load.
Maximum Demand - (Measured in Watt) - Maximum Demand is defined as the peak power consumption of the load connected.

STEP 1: Convert Input(s) to Base Unit

Average Load: 1105 Kilowatt --> 1105000 Watt (Check conversion here)
Maximum Demand: 1700 Kilowatt --> 1700000 Watt (Check conversion here)

STEP 2: Evaluate Formula

Substituting Input Values in Formula

Load Factor = Avg Load/Max Demand --> 1105000/1700000

Evaluating ... ...

Load Factor = 0.65

STEP 3: Convert Result to Output's Unit

0.65 --> No Conversion Required

FINAL ANSWER

0.65 <-- Load Factor

(Calculation completed in 00.020 seconds)

What is load factor?

In electrical engineering, the load factor is defined as the average load divided by the peak load in a specified time period. It is a measure of the utilization rate or efficiency of electrical energy usage; a high load factor indicates that load is using the electric system more efficiently, whereas consumers or generators that underutilize the electric distribution will have a low load factor.

How to Calculate Load Factor given Average Load and Maximum Demand?

Load Factor given Average Load and Maximum Demand calculator uses Load Factor = Average Load/Maximum Demand to calculate the Load Factor, Load Factor given Average Load and Maximum Demand is the ratio of average load to the maximum demand during a given period. Load Factor is denoted by Load Factor symbol.

How to calculate Load Factor given Average Load and Maximum Demand using this online calculator? To use this online calculator for Load Factor given Average Load and Maximum Demand, enter Average Load (Avg Load) & Maximum Demand (Max Demand) and hit the calculate button. Here is how the Load Factor given Average Load and Maximum Demand calculation can be explained with given input values -> 0.65 = 1105000/1700000.
