    Well done folks, can't offer much to improve it! Thank you to the group of people who obviously had a clear goal of simplifying these concepts. It was particularly interesting and important, I think, to have the different visual analogies offered.....a very good instruction method.

    My residential power provider has started charging for KvA which includes Vars. You stated power companies only charge large commercial for the wasted power. No even residential providers have learned a new way of increasing your electric bill without technically raising prices.

    VAR/reactive power when viewed in the form of those power cycles which were initially shown,2 positive and 2 negative in one complete cycle(for purely inductive/capacitive) load. What do they represent in that waveform? Rms value of that waveform, avg value or what?

    So I think a KVAR for my home would only level out the incoming current instead of having spikes when my AC compressor turned on. The KVAR would make up the difference needed by the compressor starting, then "refill" when the AC is in run mode.

    Simple ! Either different PF in power calculation involve PF will be equal in KW "without cosider of Time". The power factor is the efficiency of performance.
    A 0.7 Pf is 70% of efficiency, another 0.98 is 98% efficiency. Imagine 2 biscuit machines with a 100 pcs/hour as reference with different pF. in production. An order in 980 biscults; 0.98 pf take 10 hour to complete the job, where a 0.7 pf take 12.256 hour to complete. Who is the winner instantly can be seen. By define of machine with manhour just can easily be explained as cost saving.

    Very instructional video but that background music is annoying (4:44+). I don't know what is the reason for adding such music but if you could, please do not include background music in your next videos. Some other viewers might like such music but I don't because it gets in the way of easily listening to the narrator.

    You say that the reactive power into a generator is only used to excite the field. This is wrong. The field is produced by DC not reactive AC. The generator supplies reactive power only by virtue of the load capacitance and inductance which alters the current phase wrt to the voltage phase

    • @umairabbasi63
      @umairabbasi63 Год назад +1

      He talked about motor and not generator. DC excitation is used in Generators to produce magnetic field which then moved by prime mover to produce rotating magnetic field

    What, you’re asking a grandma and a kid what is reactive power? Lol.
    And reactive power is not imaginary, it’s real (as in a physical phenomena) and also a real number. In a two-terminal network or load operating in sinusoidal steady-state, the magnitude or absolute value of reactive power is the amplitude of the instantaneous reactive power, i.e. the maximum rate at which the oscillating energy flows.
    -
    3:32 That’s not exactly apparent power. The product of instantaneous voltage and instantaneous current is instantaneous power, all of which are a function of time, and are the curves shown in the plot. Apparent power is the product of the RMS value of the instantaneous voltage and the RMS value of the instantaneous current.

    Is this why inverter ACs are energy saving? Because the condenser is running all the time (rather than repetitively starting/stopping), thus less reactive power consumed over time?

      It has nothing to do with that. ACs with inverters are using Variable Speed Compressors.
