Electrical Systems For Buildings
Consider an MCC with six identical motors, each motor rated at 60 HP, three-phase, 60 Hz, 460 V, 1760 RPM, a service factor of 1.00, and a power factor of 90%. All the motors are protected by
Consider an MCC with nine identical motors, each motor rated at 50 HP, three-phase, 60 Hz, 460 V, 1175 RPM, a service factor of 1.00, and a power factor of 90%. All the motors are protected by
A motor control center has three induction motors each rated at 40 HP and 480 V and 4 induction motors each rated at 30 HP and 480-V. Each 40-HP motor has an efficiency of 0.92, 1172 rpm, a power
For this problem, consider the single-line diagram for a building power system shown in Figure 8.34. In particular, the utility system short-circuit kVA capability is 850,000 kVA with X/R = 6.0.
Using the radial electrical distribution system of Figure 8.34, determine the unit substation specifications and the electrical room size. The primary feeder is protected by a fused switch.(a)
A homeowner is considering adding a sunspace to his home. The project is completed during 4 years and requires \($20,000\) to be spent the first year, \($15,000\) the second year,(\($10,000\)\) the
An energy audit indicates that a home consumption is 20,000 kWh/year. By using Energy Star appliances and CFLs, a savings of 20% can be achieved for the electrical energy use. The cost for the home
An air conditioner (AC) consumes 7500 kWh annually with an overall efficiency of COP = 3.0. If this AC is replaced by a more energy-efficient AC (COP = 3.7) at a cost of $3500.(a) Determine the
Two air conditioner systems are proposed to cool a house. Each AC has a rated capacity of 5 tons and is expected to operate 500 full-load equivalent hours per year. Air conditioner A has a standard
A company has contacted you regarding their rate schedule. The company is on the rate schedule defined in Problem 9.11 as service level 3 (secondary service), but are near transmission lines and so
For an apartment building with a total of 20 incandescent lamps rated at 60 W. Determine the energy-saving potential if these lamps are replaced with 13 W CFLs. The lifespan of incandescent lamp and
For a house with a total 20 of incandescent lamps rated at 60 W, determine the energy-saving potential if these lamps are replaced with(a) 13 W CFLs and(b) 7 W LED lamps. The lifespan of incandescent
Estimate the annual phantom load for a TV with a set-top box if the TV is operated 5 h/day. Determine the annual cost of the phantom load energy if the electricity cost is 0.12/kWh.
Estimate the annual phantom load for an audio mini-system operated 3 h/day. Determine the annual cost of the phantom load energy if the electricity cost is 0.10/kWh.
Consider a ranch house of 100 m2 located in Phoenix, CO, with a total window area of 15 m2 with double-pane glazing that has a visible transmittance of 0.35. The home has 20 incandescent lamps, each
Determine the energy and cost savings of daylighting harvesting to a thin two-story house building (each floor is 24 ft × 50 ft) with a window-to-floor area ratio of 30%. The building has clear
