Utilization Factor or Plant Use Factor Solution

STEP 0: Pre-Calculation Summary

Formula Used

Utilization Factor = Maximum Power Utilized/Maximum Power Available
U.F. = P_maxu/Pmaxa
This formula uses 3 Variables

Variables Used

Utilization Factor - Utilization factor or use factor is the ratio of the time that a piece of equipment is in use to the total time that it could be in use.
Maximum Power Utilized - (Measured in Kilowatt) - Maximum power utilized in utilization factor.
Maximum Power Available - (Measured in Kilowatt) - Maximum power available in utilization factor.

STEP 1: Convert Input(s) to Base Unit

Maximum Power Utilized: 34500 Kilowatt --> 34500 Kilowatt No Conversion Required
Maximum Power Available: 43500 Kilowatt --> 43500 Kilowatt No Conversion Required

STEP 2: Evaluate Formula

Substituting Input Values in Formula

U.F. = P_maxu/Pmaxa --> 34500/43500

Evaluating ... ...

U.F. = 0.793103448275862

STEP 3: Convert Result to Output's Unit

0.793103448275862 --> No Conversion Required

FINAL ANSWER

0.793103448275862 ≈ 0.793103 <-- Utilization Factor

(Calculation completed in 00.004 seconds)

What is Efficiency and Utilization?

Efficiency is usually expressed as a percentage of the actual output to the expected output. Capacity utilization, on the other hand, is a measure of how well an organization uses its productive capacity. It's the relationship between potential or theoretical maximum output and the actual production output.

What is Field Utilization Factor?

The field utilization factor η (the mean electric. field/the maximum electric field) of the standard sphere. gaps was calculated by the charge simulation method, taking into account the ground plane and shanks.
