Here you have the possibility to calculate the sin φ, the reactive power, and the apparent power of
e.g., three-phase motors.
sin φ = Q / S
An example:
A three-phase motor with an apparent power of 15 KVA has a sin phi of 0.33.
What reactive power results from these specifications?
sin φ = Q / S
Q= S x sin phi
Q = 15 KVA x 0.33
Q = 4.95 KVAr
Measuring Units:
Reactive power Q = Kilovolt ampere reactive [kVAr]
Apparent power S = Kilovolt ampere [KVA]
sin φ no measuring unit
