Instantaneous Power Product of time-domain voltage and time-domain current p(t) = v(t) i(t) Determine maximum value Transients Steady-state steady-state As the transient dies out, the circuit returns to steady-state operation. Since the only source remaining in the circuit is dc, the inductor eventually acts as a short circuit absorbing zero power.

Effective Values Measure for sinusoidal voltages and currents Power outlets: 60 Hz, "voltage of 115V" Not the mean of T (T/) Not the Amplitude ( 115V) Measure of effectiveness of a source in delivering power to a resistive load Effective value of periodic current is equal to the DC value that delivers the same average power to resistor i(t) R p(t) P R and compare to I DC R
Effective Values Mathematical expression P T T 1 R = i Rdt = T T 0 0 i dt = I DC R = I eff R I eff = 1 T T 0 i Rdt (Square) root of the mean of the square current rms value Defined for all periodic signals
Effective Values - Sinusoids i(t) = I m cos(ωt +ϕ) with a period of T = π/ω I eff = 1 T T Im cos ( ωt + ϕ) dt 0 = I m π ω ω / π 0 1 + 1 cos(ωt + ϕ ) dt I = eff I m real quantity independent of phase angle equal to 0.707 the amplitude example: -30 o A delivers the same as I DC = 1A
RMS value to compute average power In general P = ½ V m I m cos(θ - ϕ) = V eff I eff cos(θ - ϕ) For resistors P = V eff I eff = V eff / R = I eff R Note: We can use amplitude or rms value Use V and V rms to designate voltages
RMS value to compute average power Example: (Chapter 11, Problem 30.) The series combination of a 1-kΩ resistor and a -H inductor must not dissipate more than 50 mw of power at any instant. Assuming a sinusoidal current with ω =500 rad/s, what is the largest rms current that can be tolerated? The peak instantaneous power is 50 mw. The combination of elements yields Z = 1000 + j1000 Ω = 1414 45 o Ω. o Vm 0 Vm 45 Arbitrarily designate V = V m 0, so that I = = A and V m = 1414 I m. Z 1414 We may write p(t) = ½ V m I m cos φ + ½ V m I m cos (ωt + φ) where φ = the angle of the current (-45 o ). This function has a maximum value of ½ V m I m cos φ + ½ V m I m. Thus, 0.50 = ½ V m I m (1 + cos φ) = ½ (1414) I m (1.707) and I m = 14.39 ma. In terms of rms current, the largest rms current permitted is 14.39m / = 10.18 ma rms.
Apparent Power We had P = ½ V m I m cos(θ - ϕ) = V eff I eff cos(θ - ϕ) In case of direct current we would use voltage times current: S = V eff I eff This is not the average power Is the "apparent" power (S or AP) Measured in volt-ampere or VA (rather than W to avoid confusion) Magnitude of S is always greater or equal to magnitude of P: S P
Power Factor Defined as the ratio of average (real) power to apparent power PF = P / S = P / (V eff I eff ) In the sinusoidal case the power factor is PF = cos(θ - ϕ) θ - ϕ is the angle the voltage leads the current: PF angle note: Purely resistive load has PF = 1 Purely reactive load has PF = 0 PF = 0.5 means a phase angle of ±60 Resolve ambiguity PF leading or lagging for capacitive or inductive load
Apparent Power and Power Factor Example: (Chapter 11, Problem 30.) (a) Find the power factor at which the source in the circuit of Fig. 11.4 is operating. (b) Find the average power being supplied by the source. (c) What size capacitor should be placed in parallel with the source to cause its power factor to be unity?

Complex Power Simplifies power calculations We had p(t) = V eff I eff cos(θ - ϕ) + ½ V m I m cos(ωt + θ + ϕ) Where the average (real) power P = V eff I eff cos(θ - ϕ) Using complex nomenclature P = V eff I eff Re{e j(θ - ϕ) } = V eff Re{e j(θ) } I eff Re{e -jϕ) } Hence P = Re{V eff I * eff} phasor voltage complex conjugate of phasor current Define S = V eff I * eff
Complex Power S = V eff I * eff can be written as S =V eff I eff e j(θ - ϕ) = P + jq magnitude equals apparent power S = S PF angle average (real) power reactive power Reactive power Q Imaginary part of complex power Dimensions are those of P, S, AP=S ( S ) Avoiding confusion by using volt-ampere-reactive or VAr Q = V eff I eff sin(θ - ϕ) Physical interpretation: Time rate of energy flow back&forth between source and reactive loads Reactive components charge and discharge at ω ( current flows)
Complex Power (Example) p(t) = V eff I eff cos(θ - ϕ) + V eff I eff cos(ωt + θ + ϕ) S P Q voltage V = 4 0 o V, impedance Z = 60 o Ω, I = -60 o A, ω = π/ 6 rad/s p(t) = + 4 cos(π / 3-60 ) W voltage V =.83 0 o V rms, I = -60 o A rms S = P + jq = V I * = W + j 3.46VAr = 4 60 o VA
Power Triangle Commonly used graphical representation of S = P + jq = V I* = V (V/Z)* = VV* / Z* = V / Z* = I Z Useful relationships: P = S cos(θ), Q = S sin(θ), Θ = power angle = tan -1 (Q/P) Q = P tan(θ) Quadrant means 1st - power factor is lagging, inductive load 4th - power factor is leading, capacitive load Need only two quantities to find third Im S S Q Re P (4 60 o VA = W + j 3.46VAr)

Power Measurement Wattmeter(hours) measures active load Varmeter(hours) measures reactive load Average PF is used to adjust consumer's bill (industry has to pay for unwanted losses) Complex power delivered to individual loads equals their sum no matter how loads are connected S = V I* = V (I 1 + I )* = V (I* 1 + I* ) = VI* 1 + VI*
Power Factor Correction Large industrial consumers pay penalty when PF < 0.85 Caused by inductive loads (motors) Why: Causes increased Device ratings Transmission and distribution losses Example: $0./kVAr above 6% of average (real) power demand S = P + jq = P + j0.6p = P (1+j0.6) = P (1.77 31.8 ) Targets cos(31.8 ) = 0.85 (pay penalty when PF < 0.85) Use compensation capacitors in parallel with load
Power Factor Correction Value of capacitance C = P ( tanθ tanθ ) corrects the PF angle from old to new at the specified frequency and voltage old ωv rms new Derived from Q = V rms /X c = V rms ωc (Q old -Q new ) / V rms = ωc P(tan θ old -tan θ new ) / V rms = ωc
