Mcqs or Objective Questions On power system | only4electrial | Electrical Objective Questions And answers

1). What is the approximate efficiency of a normal thermal power station ?
a)   
30-40%
b)   
45-55%
c)   
20-25%
d)   
60-70%


Answer: a) steam is condensed into the water inside the condenser using circulating water. Most of the energy is wasted in the condenser for the conversion of steam into water. So that thermal efficiency is low value i.e, 35% to 40%
2). The advantage of hydro electric power station over thermal power station is
a)   
The initial cost of hydro electric power station is low
b)   
The operation cost of hydro electric power station is low
c)   
Hydro electric power station can supply the power throughout the year   
d)   
Hydro electric station can be constructed at the place where the energy is required  


Answer: b) Hydro electric power station do not require fuel like thermal power station. therefore operating cost of hydro electric power station is low . But initial cast is high, because to construct dam and for heavy equipment it requires high initial cost.
3). In which of the following frequency control method tie line may be overloaded
a)   
Flat frequency control    
b)   
Flat tie line control
c)   
Parallel frequency
d)   
All of the above


Answer: a)
Flat frequency control: Load changes of one bus bar is supplied by the another generator for maintaining constant frequency throughout the tie line may be overloaded
4).Which of the following
statements is/are true ?
a)   
A thermal reactor needs a moderator materiel   
b)   
In nuclear reactor, mltiplication factor is kept almost equal to one
c)   
Nuclear power plants are used as peak load plants only
d)   
Both 1 and 2


Answer: d) Nuclear plants are base load power plants and for constant power output in nuclear reactor, multiplication factor is kept almost equal to one

5) A power station has a maximum demand of 15 MW. The plant capacity is 20 MW. Find the reserve capacity of the plant?

a)   
5 MW  
b)   
15 MW
c)   
20 MW
d)   
10 MW


Answer: a) Reserve capacity Rc= Plant capacity(Pc) – Maximum power (Pmax)
Rc=Pmax*(load factor-capacity factor)/capacity factor
Rc=20*106-15*106=5 MW
6) When a pumped storage power plant is operated in conjunction with a steam power plant
a)   
The operating cost of the steam plant become optimum
b)   
load factor of the steam plant is increased
c)   
Chances of the tripping of the system decreas
d)   
All of the above


Answer: b) Advantages of pumped storage plants:
1.Most economical as a peak load supply plant
2.Used as a load frequency control
if it is combined with thermal plant of an area load factor is increased
pollution free
7).Demand factor of a plant is
a)   
0  
b)   
1
c)   
Less then 1
d)   
Greater then 1


Answer: c)
Demand Factor (DF) = Station maximum Demand/ Sum of the connected load
Therefore , Demand factor of the plant is less then 1.
8).The economics of power plant is greatly influenced by
a)   
Load factor
b)   
Diversity factor
c)   
Both 1 and 2
d)   
Nether 1 nor 2


Answer: c)
plant load factor = Average power / Maximum power
Therefore, ideal plant load factor is less then 1
Diversity factor = Sum of individual maximum demand / Station maximum demand
Both load factor and diversity factor depends on maximum demand. therefore, economic of power plant is greatly influenced by both load factor and diversity factor.
9).Pelton turbine is a…….turbine
a)   
Axial flow
b)   
Inword radial flow
c)   
Impulsive    
d)   
any of the above


Answer: c)
Pelton turbine———–>Impulsive turbine
Francis turbine ———->Inward radial flow turbine
Kaplan turbine———>Axial flow turbine
10). Which of the following is low specific speed turbine ?
a)   
Pelton
b)   
Kaplan
c)   
Francis
d)   
Non of the above


Answer: a)
a.Low speed (<60 and="">30 rpm) —–> Pelton turbine with multi jet
b.Low speed (<30 -----="" rpm=""> pelton turbine with single jet
