2. Definition of Load Curve:-
The curve showing the variation of load on the power station with respect to time.
The power demands of different consumers vary in accordance with their activities.
The result of this variation in demand is that load on a power station is never
constant rather it varies from time to time. Daily Load curve
3. DIFFERENT LOAD
Domestic load
Commercial load
Industrial Load
BASE LOAD: The unvarying load which occurs almost the whole day on the
station
PEAK LOAD: The various peak demands of load of the station
4. TYPE OF LOAD CURVES
Daily load curve –Load variations during the whole day
Monthly load curve – Load curve obtained from the daily load curve
Yearly load curve - Load curve obtained from the monthly load curve
Load Duration Curve
Integrated Load Curve
Mass Curve
5. IMPORTANCE OF DAILY LC
The daily load curves have attained a great importance in generation as they supply
the following information readily :
The daily load curve shows the variations of load on the power station during different
hours of the day.
The area under the daily load curve gives the number of units generated in the day.
Units generated/day = Area (in kWh) under daily load curve.
The highest point on the daily load curve represents the maximum demand on the
station on that day.
The area under the daily load curve divided by the total number of hours gives the average
load on the station in the day.
6. IMPORTANCE OF DAILY LC
The ratio of the area under the load curve to the total area of rectangle in which it
is contained gives the load factor.
The load curve helps in selecting the size and number of generating units.
The load curve helps in preparing the operation schedule of the station.
7. Load Duration Curve
There are some facts about the LDC and can be summarized as:
1)The LDC is an arrangement of all load levels in a descending order of
magnitude.
2)The area under the LDC represents the energy demanded by the system .
3) can be used in economic dispatching, system planning and reliability evaluation.
4) it is more convenient to deal with it than the load curve.
10. Integrated Load Duration Curve
A plot of number of units generated (kWh) for a given demand (kW) is called
integration load duration curve on Y-axis, load demand in kW or MW is plotted
while on z-axis corresponding number of units generated are obtained. Such a
curve corresponding to load duration curve shown in Fig
11. Integrated Load Duration Curve
This curve is obtained from load duration curve. Let the load demand be 3 kW from
the load duration curve in section I. The number of units generated corresponding to
this demand will be area under section I which is shown as U1 in integrated load
duration curve. Similarly the other pints are also obtained to get a total curve.
The number of units consumed by a load upto a particular time of a day can also be
shown on a curve which is called as mass curve.
12. MASS CURVE
A mass curve is the plot of accumulated inflow (i.e. supply) or outflow (i.e. demand) versus
time. The mass curve of supply (i.e. supply line) is, therefore, first drawn and is superimposed
by the demand curve. The procedure to construct such diagram is as follows:
From the past records, determine the hourly demand for all 24 hours for typical days
(maximum, average and minimum).
Calculate and plot the cumulative demand against time, and thus plot the mass curve of
demand.
Read the storage required as the sum of the two maximum ordinates between demand and
supply line as shown in fig.
Repeat the procedure for all the typical days (maximum, average and minimum), and determine
the maximum storage required for the worst day.
