Electrical Engineering > GATE 2023 > Economic Dispatch
The expressions of fuel cost of two thermal generating units as a function of the respective power generation
where a is a constant. For a given value of a, optimal dispatch requires the total load of 290 MW to be shared as PG1=175 MW and PG2=115 MW. With the load remaining unchanged, the value of a is increased by 10% and optimal dispatch is carried out. The changes in PG1 and the total cost of generation, F(=F1+F2) in Rs/hour will be as follows _______.
A
PG1 will decrease and F will increase.
B
Both PG1 and F will increase.
C
PG1 will increase and F will decrease.
D
Both PG1 and F will decrease.

Correct : a
