Estimating to Optimize the Power Consumption in SVPB, NHCE Campus

Analyzing for the utilization of real power or useful power by the load at Sardhar Vallabhai Patel Block (SVPB). When load is energized either on alternating current (AC) or direct current (DC) supply, comparing loads real and imaginary power consumed when they are AC or DC load. The electrical characteristics of load are maintained constant for both supplies. For light load, its luminous is maintained at 2400 luminous seconded by fan’s speed between 500 to 800 rpm. The total light and fan load at SVPB is tabulated. Theoretical calculations are made to calculate the active, reactive, apparent power and power factor in ac system without compensation and with compensation. Total Power in dc system is tabulated to compare the total real or useful power consumed in both systems for same load characteristics. The result shows that power consumed, when system operating with ac 1.4582 time for the same load characteristics over dc system. DC system consumes only 68.88% of ac power after power factor correction. The calculated results are verified over Matlab environment.
