Power Factors
By installing variable speed AC drives, you can improve process controls, increase energy savings, reduce wear on machinery, and improve power factor (PF). AC drives improve PF by circulating the motor's reactive current internally rather than sending it back to the power supply. This allows the drive's input current to be lower than the output current to the motor. For example, a drive might have an output current of 94.5A but only require an input current of 60A, reducing losses in the power system by 5%. While the primary benefits of drives are improved control and energy savings, higher PF is an added advantage that can save on utility penalties for low PF.

1. Real/Active power (P) is the power actually used by a load and is calculated as P=VI cosθ in AC circuits. In DC and purely resistive AC circuits it is P=VI.
2. Reactive power (Q) is power that oscillates between source and load due to inductive or capacitive properties and is calculated as Q=VI sinθ. It is measured in VAR.
3. Apparent power (S) is the total power in an AC circuit including both real and reactive power. It is calculated as S=VI without considering phase angle and is measured in VA. Apparent power is greater than
Power factor correction
This document discusses power factor correction. It defines power factor as the ratio of actual power to apparent power. Inductive loads cause low power factors by creating a phase difference between voltage and current. Low power factors increase losses and costs. Power factor can be corrected by installing capacitors to supply reactive power and improve the phase relationship. Proper power factor correction increases system capacity, reduces losses, saves costs through efficiency improvements and utility incentives, and improves voltage stability.
Automation of capacitor banks based on MVAR Requirement
Power generation systems generate two power components, real power measured in watts, and reactive power measured in VARs. Both of these power components need to be produced and transmitted from the generator to the service customer. Real power flows from the generator to the load, and is used to drive loads such as electrical motors, create the heating effect in heaters, and the heating/lighting effect in lamps. Losses and associated voltage drops in the network are effected by the vector sum of real power and reactive power. Reactive power provided from a generation or capacitor source to the load is the component necessary for the operation of magnetizing currents in motors, transformers and solenoids which are part of a customer service load.
A capacitor bank is a grouping of several identical capacitors interconnected in parallel or in series with one another. These groups of capacitors are typically used to correct or counteract undesirable characteristics, such as power factor lag or phase shifts inherent in alternating current (AC) electrical power supplies. Shunt capacitor banks are used to an increasing extent at all voltage levels. There are a variety of reasons for this like the growing need for power transfer on existing lines while avoiding transfer of reactive power, better use of existing power systems, improving voltage stability, right-of-way and cost problems, voltage control and compensation of reactive loads. Three-phase capacitor bank sizes vary from a few tenths of MVAr to several hundreds of MVAr. Here we are using 25MVAR capacitor bank for this purpose.
Here, we have simulated an automatic scheme for switching of capacitor bank based on mvar requirement of the system. They automatically sense the voltage and reactive power using transducers. Output from these transducers are given to sensing circuit where it is compare with normal parameters (voltage and reactive power) of the system. If the condition satisfies it automatically switch on capacitor bank. And this normalises the system parameters.

The document discusses synchronous motors, including their construction, operation principles, starting methods, and characteristics under different excitations. Some key points covered include:
- Synchronous motors operate in synchronism with the frequency of the power source, maintaining a constant speed. Their speed is determined by the number of poles and line frequency.
- They are constructed similarly to alternators and have constant speed between no load and full load. Damper windings or an external prime mover are needed for starting.
- Under normal excitation the induced emf equals the supply voltage. Under-excitation leads to induced emf below supply voltage, while over-excitation induces emf above supply voltage.
- Applications
Upfc & fact
The significance of power factor correction (PFC) has long been visualized as a technology requirement for improving the efficiency of a power system network by compensating for the fundamental reactive power generated or consumed by simple inductive or capacitive loads. With the Information Age in full swing, the growth of high reliability, low cost electronic products have led utilities to escalate their power quality concerns created by the increase of such “switching loads.” These products include: entertainment devices such as Digital TVs, DVDs, and audio equipment; information technology devices such as PCs, printers, and fax-machines; variable speed motor drives for HVAC and white goods appliances; food preparation and cooking products such as microwaves and cook tops; and lighting products, which include electronic ballasts, LED and fluorescent lamps, and other power conversion devices that operate a variety of lamps. The drivers that have resulted in this proliferation are a direct result of the availability of low-cost switch-mode devices and control circuitry in all major end-use segments: residential, commercial, and industrial.
Single phase induction motor
1) Single phase induction motors use a split phase winding or capacitor start method to generate a rotating magnetic field for starting.
2) Synchronous motors operate at a constant synchronous speed and use a damper winding, pony motor, or DC motor method to reach synchronous speed before loading.
3) V curves show the relationship between armature current, field current, and excitation voltage in synchronous motors.

This document discusses power factor improvement. It begins by defining power factor as the cosine of the angle between the voltage and current in an AC circuit. Power factor can be lagging if the current lags the voltage in an inductive circuit, or leading if the current leads the voltage in a capacitive circuit. Low power factor is undesirable as it results in higher equipment ratings, conductor sizes, copper losses and poorer voltage regulation. Power factor can be improved by adding capacitors in parallel with inductive loads to provide a leading reactive current. This reduces the phase angle between voltage and current, increasing the power factor. Other methods of power factor improvement include using synchronous condensers and phase advancers. Improving power factor is important for both
2006_18_spring_wiring_matters_power_factor_correction_pfc.pdf
This document discusses power factor correction, which is a process that improves the efficiency of electrical power systems by reducing reactive power. Inductive loads like motors cause current to lag voltage, reducing the power factor. Power factor correction involves adding capacitors, which create a leading current to compensate for the lagging current from inductive loads. This brings the power factor closer to 1, reducing losses and improving efficiency for both the power supplier and consumer.
PFI GUIDE
This document discusses power factor correction for electrical distribution systems. It describes the following key points:
- Inductive loads like motors require both active and reactive power to function. Reactive power sustains electromagnetic fields but does not perform useful work.
- Power factor is a measure of how effectively power is being used, with higher power factors indicating more effective use. Low power factors mean poor utilization efficiency.
- Capacitors can be used to improve low power factors by supplying reactive power to counteract the inductive loads. This reduces the burden on utilities and lowers operating costs.
- Capacitors can be installed individually near loads or in centralized banks and the best approach is often a combination of

Efficiency, rating, and applications of dynamos
1. A dynamo converts mechanical energy to electrical energy or vice versa, but is not 100% efficient and loses some power through heat.
2. Power losses in dynamos come from rotational losses like bearing friction and electrical losses from current flow.
3. The efficiency of a dynamo is the ratio of its output power to its input power. Higher efficiency means less power is lost as heat.

Simulation and Analysis of a D-STATCOM for Load Compensation and Power Facto...
Power Generation and Transmission is a complex process, requiring the working of many
components of the power system in tandem to maximize the output. One of the main components to form
a major part is the reactive power in the system. It is required to maintain the voltage to deliver the
active power through the lines. Loads like motor loads and other loads require reactive power for their
operation. To improve the performance of ac power systems, we need to manage this reactive power in
an efficient way and this is known as reactive power compensation. In developing countries like India,
where the variation of power frequency and many such other determinants of power quality are
themselves a serious question, it is very vital to take positive steps in this direction.
The work presented here illustrates a method to compensate for the load reactive power using a
DSTATCOM
A DSTATCOM injects a current into the system to provide for the reactive component of the load
current. The validity of proposed method and achievement of desired compensation are confirmed by
the results of the simulation in MATLAB/ Simulink.
Improvement of Load Power Factor by Using Capacitor
Series and parallel capacitors in the power system effect reactive power to improve power factor and voltage because of increasing the system capacity and reducing losses. Reactive power of series capacitor is the same to the current. There are certain unpleasant aspects in the capacitor series. Generally, the cost to install a series capacitor is higher than parallel capacitor. It is caused by complex protection equipment for series capacitor and designing series capacitors for greater power than parallel capacitor to solve the future cost. Installation of capacitors is important to reduce of a system reactive power. Transmission line would be most economical if it is used to send active power where the need of reactive power can be obtained by distribution system in substation level. This will allow user in optimum transmission line, improve operational performance and reduce energy losses. It requires a system and planning carefully to fulfill the need of system reactive power in the same way with active power planning and it is programmed an additional generator capacity.

Power factor correction
- 2. DEFINITION the angle of this “power triangle” graphically indicates the ratio between the amount of consumed power and the amount of returned power. It also happens to be the same angle as that of the circuit's impedance in polar form. When expressed as a fraction, this ratio between true power and apparent power is called the power factor for this circuit. Because true power and apparent power form the adjacent and hypotenuse sides of a right triangle, respectively, the power factor ratio is also equal to the cosine of that phase angle. Using values from the last example circuit: It should be noted that power factor, like all ratio measurements, is a unitless quantity
- 3. FORMULA
- 4. DISADVANTAGES LOW POWER FACTOR Cost for the electricity supply is high because voltage must be increased in order to obtain equalpower as electricity that is produced witha high power factor. This will cause the need to replace equipment such as generators, transformers and others.
- 5. 2. If the voltage cannotbe increased, the current should be increased to obtain equalpower of a high power factor. This will cause more spending in the conversion of cable size and current rating.
- 6. 3. With the increase voltage drop and copper losses, the efficiency decreases
- 7. Why Improve Your Power Factor? Some of the benefits of improving your power factor are: Your utility bill will be smaller. Low power factor requires an increase in the electric utility’s transmission and distribution capacity in order to handle the reactive power component caused by inductive loads. Utilities usually charge large customers with power factors less than about 0.95 an additional fee. You can avoid this additional fee by increasing your power factor. Your internal electrical system’s capacity will increase. Uncorrected power factor will cause increased losses in your electrical distribution system and limit capacity for expansion. Voltage drop at the point of use will be reduced (i.e. improved). Voltages below equipment rating will cause reduced efficiency, increased current, and reduced starting torque in motors. Under-voltage reduces the load motors can carry without overheating or stalling. Under voltagealso reduces output from lighting and resistance heating equipment.
