why we don't discuss power facter in dc?
Answers were Sorted based on User's Feedback
power factor is simply the angle(phase) diffrence b/w the
voltage and current wave in a system.
in case of d.c. voltage, as it is not a fluctuating wave,
the resulting current is also non fluctuating. thus no
phase angle exists b/w them.

power factor is the cosine of angle between voltage and
current. In case of DC the angle between voltage and
current is zero. therefore power factor always remains 1.
power factor= cos(angle between vtg and current)
here angle = zero
therefore power factor = 1

Answer / s.rajasekar
dc is the directcurrent it has no phase difference between
the voltage and current is unity or zero.so we won't
consider about PF

Answer / abhi...
In dc there is no phase difference between current& voltage
(is zero) so.........
power factor= cos(angle between vtg and current)
here angle = zero
therefore power factor = 1

Answer / syed vikhar ahmad
as we know power factor is the cosine of the angle between
voltage and current and in dc there is 0 angle between
voltage and current so the power factor is always one thats
why we dont discuss power factor in dc.

Will it be OK to connect a 5MVA 33/6.6kV Ynd11 Transformer to a Star connected Motor. Or on other words connecting a Delta to a Star. I have another 30MVA 33/11 Dyn11 and would it be practical to convert it to Dd0 consequently converting the Voltage Ratio to 33/6.35kV Dd0.
I have 480V Single phase and I am trying to figure how big of a transformer (KVA's) and Primary breaker size I need to provide 200 Amps at 240V for a building.
Enlist four components of electrive drives.
if the load is reactive then what is the use of calculating the real power and what is the use of reactive power if my question is wrong please excuse me..
please give me all the Alarm .Trip ,Safety Relays & Conditions of Diesel-generators mail me on ashokbabunhce@gmail.com
how a flip flop can be used as a latch?
What are the implications when the power factor is is leading condition ?
is it possible to give the total load from the supply generator's maximum in practical?
why nearly all the voltage levels are in the multiples of 11 like 3.3 ,6.6 ,33 ,11 kv.....
if the load is 80 amp for main fuse and 100 amp for breaker so how can we calculate the cable size (cooper ) .
