Lesson 25 AC Power and Power Triangle Learning Objectives Define real (active) power, reactive power, average, and apparent power. Calculate the real, reactive, and apparent power in AC series parallel networks. Graph the real and reactive power of purely resistive, inductive, or capacitive loads in AC series parallel networks as a function of time. Determine when power is dissipated, stored, or released in purely resistive, inductive, or capacitive loads in AC series parallel networks. Use the power triangle determine relationships between real, reactive and apparent power. AC Power AC Impedance is a complex quantity made up of real resistance and imaginary reactance. Z R jX ( ) AC Apparent Power is a complex quantity made up of real active power and imaginary reactive power: S P jQ (VA) AC Real (Active) Power (P) The Active power is the power that is dissipated in the resistance of the load. It uses the same formula used for DC (V & I are the magnitudes, not the phasors): 2 V 2 PI R R [watts, W] WARNING! #1 mistake with AC power calculations! The Voltage in the above equation is the Voltage drop across the resistor, not across the entire circuit! CAUTION! REAL value of resistance (R) is used in REAL power calculations, not IMPEDANCE (Z)! AC Imaginary (Reactive) Power (Q) The reactive power is the power that is exchanged between reactive components (inductors and capacitors) The formulas look similar to those used by the active power, but use reactance instead of resistances. 2 V QI X X 2 [VAR] WARNING! #1 mistake with AC power calculations! The Voltage in the above equation is the Voltage drop across the reactance, not across the entire circuit! Units: Volts-Amps-Reactive (VAR) Q is negative for a capacitor by convention and positive for inductor. Just like X is negative for a capacitor! (-Xcj) AC Apparent Power (S) The apparent power is the power that is “appears” to flow to the load. The magnitude of apparent power can be calculated using similar formulas to those for active or reactive power: 2 V 2 S VI I Z Z [VA] Units: Volts-Amps (VA) V & I are the magnitudes, not the phasors Reactive power calculated with X Real power calculated with R Apparent power calculated with Z AC Power Notice the relationship between Z and S: ZR j X SP j Q ( ) (VA) Power Triangle The power triangle graphically shows the relationship between real (P), reactive (Q) and apparent power (S). S P2 Q2 S P jQL S S Example Problem 1 Determine the real and reactive power of each component. Determine the apparent power delivered by the source. Real and Reactive Power The power triangle also shows that we can find real (P) and reactive (Q) power. S IV P S cos Q S sin (VA) (W) (VAR) NOTE: The impedance angle and the “power factor angle” are the same value! Example Problem 2 Determine the apparent power, total real and reactive power using the following equations: S VI P S cos Q S sin (VA) (W) (VAR) Total Power in AC Circuits The total power real (PT) and reactive power (QT) is simply the sum of the real and reactive power for each individual circuit elements. How elements are connected does not matter for computation of total power.

Example Problem 4 a. b. Determine the value of R, PT and QT Draw the power triangle and determine S. WARNING… Proofs for Real and reactive Power calculations follow… AC Power to a Resistive Load In ac circuits, voltage and current are functions of time. Power at a particular instant in time is given Vm I m p vi (Vm sin t )( I m sin t ) Vm I m sin t 1 cos 2t 2 2 This is called instantaneous power. Average Power to a Resistive Load p is always positive All of the power delivered by the source is absorbed by the load. Average power P = VmIm / 2 Average Power to a Resistive Load Using RMS values V and I VRMS Vm I RMS Im 2 2 rms value of voltage rms value of current Vm I m Vm I m P VRMS I RMS 2 2 2 (watts) Active power is the average value of instantaneous power. Power to an Inductive Load Consider the following circuit where i = Im sin t . Can we write an expression instantaneous power or pL(t) ? Power to an Inductive Load i I m sin t v Vm sin(t 90) p vi (Vm sin t 90 )( I m sin t ) Vm I m cos t sin t Vm I m Vm I m sin 2t sin 2t VRMS I RMS sin 2t 2 2 2 Power to an Inductive Load p is equally positive and negative. All of the power delivered by the source is returned. Average power PL = 0 W Reactive Power Reactive power is the portion of power that flows into load and then back out. It contributes nothing to average power. The power that flows into and out of a pure inductor is reactive power only. Power to a Capacitive Load Consider the following circuit where i = Im sin t . Can we write an expression instantaneous power or pC(t) ? Power to a Capacitive Load i I m sin t v Vm sin(t 90) p vi (Vm sin t 90 )( I m sin t ) Vm I m cos t sin t Vm I m Vm I m sin 2t sin 2t VRMS I RMS sin 2t 2 2 2 Power to a Capacitive Load p is equally positive and negative All of the power delivered by the source is returned (no power losses with a pure reactive load).
