Utilization Factor Solution

STEP 0: Pre-Calculation Summary

Formula Used

Utilization Factor = Max Power Developed/Total Power that can be Developed
UF = P_max/m
This formula uses 3 Variables

Variables Used

Utilization Factor - Utilization Factor is Proportion of light reaching working plane to the light output of lamps.
Max Power Developed - (Measured in Watt) - Max Power Developed is the generation of maximum energy.
Total Power that can be Developed - (Measured in Watt) - Total Power that can be Developed is the generation of maximum total energy.

STEP 1: Convert Input(s) to Base Unit

Max Power Developed: 5000 Kilowatt --> 5000000 Watt (Check conversion here)
Total Power that can be Developed: 500.1 Kilowatt --> 500100 Watt (Check conversion here)

STEP 2: Evaluate Formula

Substituting Input Values in Formula

UF = P_max/m --> 5000000/500100

Evaluating ... ...

UF = 9.99800039992002

STEP 3: Convert Result to Output's Unit

9.99800039992002 --> No Conversion Required

FINAL ANSWER

9.99800039992002 ≈ 9.998 <-- Utilization Factor
