To attain a powerfactor more than .95, how much kvr should
we use for 100 HP of current

Answer Posted / r. thirumoorthy

I DON'T KNOW EXACTLY, ITS MAY BE CORRECT.


POWER FACTOR=KW/KVAR;
IN THIS CASE WE KNOW KW VALUE INDIRECTLY 1 HP=746 WATTS
SO 100 HP=74600 WATTS
AND POWER FACTOR=0.95


THEREFORE REQUIRED KVAR=74600/0.95=78526.315


IF IT IS WRONG SEND ME CORRECT ANSWER.............

Is This Answer Correct ?    6 Yes 1 No
