Energy consumption issue
Thread Content
When the load is low, the energy consumption of the device increases – in what ways does this manifest itself?
At low loads, the proportion of heat loss increases, resulting in a decrease in the efficiency of the motor. Many types of energy consumption do not decrease in proportion to the reduction in load; in fact, they have little to do with the load at all (such as the consumption of air for instrumentation, lighting power, and office electricity). The specific consumption can have production as the denominator, or raw materials as the denominator. In a refinery, the denominator for the overall energy consumption is the amount of crude oil processed
Hello, do you mean the heat loss related to pipes, equipment, and things like that? Is the loss percentage higher at low load than at high load?
1. The consumption of utility services remains roughly the same under high and low loads. 2. Low load results in less reaction heat, and higher consumption of external energy. 3. High unit consumption results in a high cost per unit of weight of the product.
