The Apparent Power is the product of the Rms value of voltage and current. It is measured in Volt amperes (VA).

The Power Factor (pf) is the cosine of the phase difference between voltage and current. It is also the cosine of the angle of load impedance. The power factor may also be regarded as the ratio of the real power dissipated to the apparent power of the load.

The Average Power depends on the Rms value of voltage and current and the phase angle between them.

36Eeng 224

If the average power is zero, and the energy supplied is returned within one cycle, why is a reactive power of any significance?

At every instant of time along the power curve that the curve is above the axis (positive), energy must be supplied to the inductor, even though it will be returned during the negative portion of the cycle. This power requirement during the positive portion of the cycle requires that the generating plant provide this energy during that interval, even though this power is not dissipated but simply “borrowed.”

The increased power demand during these intervals is a cost factor that must that must be passed on to the industrial consumer.

Most larger users of electrical energy pay for the apparent power demand rather than the watts dissipated since the volt-amperes used are sensitive to the reactive power requirement.

The closer the power factor of an industrial consumer is to 1, the more efficient is the plant’s operation since it is limiting its use of “borrowed” power.

Power Factor Correction The design of any power transmission system is very sensitive to the magnitude of

the current in the lines as determined by the applied loads.

Increased currents result in increased power losses (by a squared factor since P = I2R) in the transmission lines due to the resistance of the lines.

Heavier currents also require larger conductors, increasing the amount of copper needed for the system, and they require increased generating capacities by the utility company.

Since the line voltage of a transmission system is fixed, the apparent power is directly related to the current level.

In turn, the smaller the net apparent power, the smaller the current drawn from the supply. Minimum current is therefore drawn from a supply when S = P and QT = 0.

The process of introducing reactive elements to bring the power factor closer to unity is called power-factor correction. Since most loads are inductive, the process normally involves introducing elements with capacitive terminal characteristics having the sole purpose of improving the power factor.
