A system with two generators G1 and G2 (without generator limits) is shown.

GATE EE 2026 Power System Analysis - Power Generation Cost Question 1 English

The total load on the system is 1184 MW . The expression for the cost of generation ( $\mathrm{C}_1$ and $\mathrm{C}_2$ ) and real power loss ( $P_{\text {loss }}$ ) are as follows:

$$ \begin{aligned} & \mathrm{C}_1\left(P_{G 1}\right)=1000+50 P_{G 1}+0.01\left(P_{G 1}\right)^2 \mathrm{Rs} / \mathrm{MWh} \\ & \mathrm{C}_2\left(P_{G 2}\right)=2000+50 P_{G 2}+0.001\left(P_{G 1}\right)^2 \mathrm{Rs} / \mathrm{MWh} \end{aligned} $$

$$ P_{\text {Loss }}=0.001\left(P_{G 2}-50\right)^2 \mathrm{MW} $$

When the generators are operating at their optimal generation, meeting the total load requirement, the real power loss in the system is $\_\_\_\_$ MW (Round off to one decimal place)

Consider the Lagrange multiplier $\lambda=70.25$ for optimal generation.

Let $x_C(t)$ be any continuous-time periodic signal with period $T$. It is sampled uniformly with a sampling period $T_s$ where $T_s \neq T$, resulting in the discrete sequence $x[n]=x_c\left(n T_s\right)$, where $n$ is an integer. Which one of the following statements is correct about $x[n]$ ?

A

$x[n]$ will always be periodic with period $\frac{T}{T_s}$ for all values of $\frac{T}{T_s}$

B

$x[n]$ will always be periodic with period 1 for all values of $\frac{T}{T_s}$

C

$x[n]$ will always be periodic

D

$x[n]$ will be periodic if and only if $\frac{T}{T_s}$ is a rational number
