Figure 1(b)
Procedure:
1. Apply an input sinusoidal
voltage of peak 5V to the series
R-L circuit shown in figure
2. Measure the current and the
phase difference between the
voltage across resistor and
voltage across inductor.
3. Calculate the active power,
reactive power, complex
power and power factor with
the
help of following formula
Procedure:
1. Apply an input sinusoidal voltage of 200Vrms, 50Hz to the series R-L circuit shown in figure 1(a).
2. Measure the current and the phase difference between the voltage across resistor and voltage
across inductor.
3. Calculate the active power, reactive power, complex power and power factor with the help of
following formulas:
P= (Vrms) (Irms) Cosθ
Q= (Vrms) (Irms) Sinθ
S=VI
P.F=Cosθ
4. Repeat the step 1 and 2 for different values as Table 1.
5. Calculate the appropriate capacitor to correct the power factor to a value of 0.95.
6. Connect the capacitor in parallel as shown in figure 1(b).
7. Measure the current and the phase difference between the voltage across resistor and
voltage across inductor and capacitor.
8. Now again calculate the active power, reactive power, complex power and power factor
with the help of following formulas and fill table 2.
9. Repeat the step 5 and 8 for different values as Table 2.
