Chapter 10, Problem ACSQ

A domestic load of 2300 kW at 0.88 p.f lagging and a motors load of 3400 kW at 0.85 p.f lagging are supplied by two alternators operating in parallel. If one alternator is delivering a load of 3300 kW at 0.9 p.f lagging, what will be the output power and p.f of the other alternator?

Design a bank of capacitors to provide 60V and 2kWh energy to capture and store regen breaking energy. Use commercial supercapacitor cells at 3V and 3600F.   Capacitor voltage drops almost linearly during discharge and below half voltage maximum it doesn’t provide significant power. If we discharge a fully charged capacitor to its half voltage maximum, how much energy can be discharged compared to a full-discharged capacitor (show your calculation)?

8-1) similar to Lathi & Ding, Prob. P.5.1-2 The figure below shows the Fourier spectra of signals of g,(t) and g₁(t). Determine the Nyquist rate and the corresponding sampling interval for signals of g,(t), g,(t), g₁(1) - g¸(1), g¸³(t), and g₁(1)g₁(1). Hint: Use the frequency convolution and the width property of convolution. G₁(f) G₂(f) -8000 0 8000 f -20000 10 20000 f
