Chapter 4, Problem 4.15P

Suppose we have a capacitance C that is charged to an initial voltage V i . Then at t = 0 , a resistance R is connected across the capacitance. Write an expression for the current. Then, integrate the current from t = 0 to t = , and show that the result is equal to the initial charge stored on the capacitance.

A factory has the following load with power factor of 0.9 lagging in each phase. Red phase 40 A, yellow phase 50 A and blue phase 60 A. If the supply is 400 V, three-phase, four-wire, calculate the current in the neutral and the total active power. Draw a phasor diagram for phase and line quantities. Assume that, relative to the current in the red phase, the current in the yellow phase lags by 120° and that in the blue phase leads by 120°.
Fundimentals of Energy Systems Q8
Two wattmeters are used to measure power in a three phase, three-wire network. Show by means of connection and complexor (phasor) diagrams that the sum of the wattmeter readings will measure the total active power. Two such wattmeters read 120 W and 50 W when connected to measure the active power taken by a balanced three-phase load. Find the power factor of the load. If one wattmeter tends to read in the reverse direction, explain what changes may have occurred in the circuit ANS:  0.815
