Chapter 2, Problem 2.30P

Figure 2.26 shows three loads connected in parallel across a 1 000 -V  ( RMS ) ,  6 0 Hz single-phase source.

Load 1: Inductive load, 125 kVA ,   0. 28PF lagging.

Load 2: Capacitive load, 1 0  kW ,  4 0  kvar .

Load 3: Resistive load, 15 kW .

(a) Determine the total kW, kvar, kva, and supply power factor.

(b) In order to improve the power factor to 0.8 lagging. a capacitor of negligible resistance is connected in parallel with the above loads. Find the kvar rating of that capacitor and the capacitance in μ F .

Comment on the magnitude of the supply current after adding the capacitor.

Design 5th order LPF with gain = Yo cut of freq=10KHZ
The current coil of a wattmeter is connected in the red line of a three-phase system. The voltage circuit can be connected between the red line and either the yellow line or the blue line by means of a two-way switch. Assuming the load to be balanced, show with the aid of a phasor diagram that the sum of the wattmeter indications obtained with the voltage circuit connected to the yellow and the blue lines respectively gives the total active power.
A wattmeter has its current coil connected in the yellow line, and its voltage circuit is connected between the red and blue lines. The line voltage is 400 V and the balanced load takes a line current of 30 A at a power factor of 0.7 lagging. Draw circuit and phasor diagrams and derive an expression for the reading on the wattmeter in terms of the line voltage and current and of the phase difference between the phase voltage and current. Calculate the value of the wattmeter indication. ANS:  . Line amperes × line volts × sin φ = 8750 var
