Active, Reactive, and Apparent Power –Part2
Rajparthiban Kumar EE207 Electrical Power 2
Reactive Power
• Reactive Power: This power is responsible for the
production of the magnetic flux in electrical
systems, and it does not produce any useful work
or heat.
• Reactive power will surge back and forth between
the source and the load. Its unit is VAR and is
measured using a special instrument called
varmeter.
• Reactive power flows from/to a system due to the
presence of inductive or capacitive elements.
Rajparthiban Kumar EE207 Electrical Power 3
Reactive Power
• Capacitors and inductors both are reactive
elements. An inductor absorbs reactive power and
it appear as reactive load, whereas a capacitor
supplies reactive power and it appears as reactive
source.
• The current in an inductor lags the voltage across
it by 90o. Conversely, the current in a capacitor
leads the voltage across it by 90o.
• An inductive reactance is expressed as jXL, and a
capacitive reactance is expressed as –jXC .

Reactive Power
Example
A sinusoidal voltage source has a voltage peak
Vp= 162Vand frequency of 60Hz is applied to
the terminals of an inductor. The resulting
current has a peak of Ip= 7.5 A.
a) Calculate the value of the inductor in [H].
b) Plot the current, voltage and instantaneous power
waveforms.
c) Calculate the power absorbed by the reactor.
d) Plot the phasor diagram.

You can observe from the graph that
The instantaneous power has positive and
negative peaks at 607.5 var.
The instantaneous power pulsates at 120Hz
which is twice the supply frequency, and it is
average is zero.

• Note that the reactive power is calculated as the
product of the effective values of the voltage
times the current component which is out of 90o.

• Reactive power can be obtained from the product
of the out of phase components of the effective
values of the voltage and current.
• To understand this let’s consider the following
example: A sinusoidal AC voltage
is applied across the terminals of a network and
produced a current given as:

Active Power
• Note that the voltage and current are at different
phase angles (γ, and θ respectively) and the load is
given as Z (impedance). Let’s consider this
general example to find Q.
• To simplify the analysis, the phasor representation
will be used, and the cosine function (i.e. cosωt)
will be used as a reference.
• Thus the rms voltage and current phasors are
given as:

Active, Reactive Power
• Active and reactive powers function independently of each other and, consequently, they can be treated as separate quantities in electric circuits.
• Both place burden on the transmission line that carries them, but, whereas active power produces a tangible result(heat, mechanical work, light, etc.), reactive power only presents power that oscillates back and forth.
• Transformers, ballasts, induction motor absorb reactive power, and it produces magnetic field in these devices.

QT
• Note that QT is negative and that shows that the
load will generate reactive power, which means
that this power has to be absorbed by the
Generator. However, the power absorbed by the
resistor must be supplied by the Generator.

Power Factor
• Power factor (p.f.) of an alternating current device or circuit is the ratio of the active power P to the apparent power S, and is given as:
• Power factor can never be greater than unity (100%) as P can never exceed S.
• The power factor is said to be lagging if the current lags behind the voltage. Conversely, the power factor is said to be leading if the current leads the voltage.

P.f.p ========
Rajparthiban Kumar EE207 Electrical Power 22
• The power factor of a resistive circuit is Unity
(100%) because the apparent power and the active
power are equal.
• Pure inductive or capacitive circuits have zero
power factor. (note θ=90o between V and I).
• A combination of an inductive and resistive
elements will have a lagging power factor.
• A combination of capacitive and resistive circuit
elements will have a leading power factor.

Power Triangle
• The relationship between S, P, and Q can be
shown graphically using a Power Triangle
according to the following rules:
– Active power P absorbed (delivered) by a circuit or
device is considered to be positive (negative) and is
drawn horizontally to the right (left).
– Reactive power Q absorbed (delivered) by a circuit or
device is considered to be positive (negative) and is
drawn vertically upwards (downwards).

Example 7.9
A 50µF paper capacitor is placed across the motor terminals. Calculate:-
a) The reactive power generated by the capacitor
b) The active power absorbed by the motor
c) The reactive power absorbed by the line
d) The new line current
Rajparthiban Kumar EE207 Electrical Power 27
a) XC = 1/ jωC = 1/ j2πfC = 53Ω
so the current in the capacitor
I = V/ XC = 120 / 53 = 2.26 A
Therefore Qc = VI = 120(2.26) = 271 Var
Rajparthiban Kumar EE207 Electrical Power 28
b) The active power absorbed by the motor remains
the same.

PF correction
• It can be seen that apparent power is larger than P if PF is less than 1. So, the current I must be supplied is larger for PF<1, eventhough P supplied is the same.
• This larger current add cost to suppliers.
• Power companies charge industrial customers higher who operate at low power factor. (residential operate at unity PF)
• Must install capacitors to improve power factor.
