    The document discusses sizing diesel generator sets for an emergency load list. It estimates the total operating load to be 1590 kVA. A generator capacity of 1975 kVA is required for continuous operation, accounting for efficiency. An additional capacity of 2122 kVA is needed to consider transient voltage dip during startup of the largest motor load rated at 150 kW. The recommended conservative size is 2500 kVA by using two 1250 kVA generator sets, which would allow the voltage drop during startup to remain close to the specified 10% limit.

    The document discusses the sizing of a DG set to meet the electrical load requirements of various equipment. It calculates the operating load, required capacity considering transients, and overload capacity before selecting a 2500kVA DG set size.

    The total operating load on the DG set in kW is 1494.19 and in kVAR is 963.6 when including a 50% standby load.

    The capacity required for continuous operation, P1, is calculated as the total power output kVA (C) divided by the overall efficiency of the alternator (assumed 90%). This gives a value of 1975.51 kVA.

    DG SET SIZING FOR 2*1250 kVA SET


    K = Overload Capacity of the DG P3 CONCLUSION : Considering the largest value amongst 2663.82 kVA P1(1975), P2(2122), P3(1681) viz. Conservative Size of D.G. set selected is 2500 kVA (1250kVA x 2) Verification of TVD with D.G. Set of capacity TVD = DV = Xd''' Xd'''+XL where XL = Starting Load Reactance = DG Capacity = = Xd''' (As capacity considered is double Xd"' retained same) Therefore, Actual Voltage Drop = DV Since TVD is close to 10%, D.G. Set Size is justified. = 1.35 16% 11% Total Momentary Load = 2500 kVA (1250kVA x 2) = = 1.1 as per manufacturer data 1681.70 kVA

    Variation in V with respect to P1,P2,P3.

    V in %

    P1 13.03023066

    P2 10

    P3 14.96598639

    From the above result voltage drop in P2(2663.82 kVA) is coming below specified value, the next size of DG to be selected is 3000 kVA (2*1500 kVA) this is very much higher value than required. But if we select a D.G of size 2500 kVA(2*1250 kVA) the voltage drop is around 10.5% which is very close to 10% so 2500 kVA(2*1250 kVA) is selected.
