  2. Power factor - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Power_factor

    Power flow calculated from AC voltage and current entering a load having a zero power factor (ϕ = 90°, cos(ϕ) = 0).The blue line shows the instantaneous power entering the load: all of the energy received during the first (or third) quarter cycle is returned to the grid during the second (or fourth) quarter cycle, resulting in an average power flow (light blue line) of zero.

  3. Power-voltage curve - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Power-voltage_curve

    Power-voltage curve (also P-V curve) describes the relationship between the active power delivered to the electrical load and the voltage at the load terminals in an electric power system under a constant power factor. [1] When plotted with power as a horizontal axis, the curve resembles a human nose, thus it is sometimes called a nose curve. [2]

  4. Mathematics of three-phase electric power - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mathematics_of_three-phase...

    The plotted line represents the variation of instantaneous voltage (or current) with respect to time. This cycle repeats with a frequency that depends on the power system. In electrical engineering, three-phase electric power systems have at least three conductors carrying alternating voltages that are offset in time by one-third of the period ...

  5. Power-flow study - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Power-flow_study

    In power engineering, the power-flow study, or load-flow study, is a numerical analysis of the flow of electric power in an interconnected system. A power-flow study usually uses simplified notations such as a one-line diagram and per-unit system, and focuses on various aspects of AC power parameters, such as voltages, voltage angles, real power and reactive power.

  6. Current–voltage characteristic - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Current–voltage...

    An I–V curve which is a straight line through the origin with positive slope represents a linear or ohmic resistor, the most common type of resistance encountered in circuits. It obeys Ohm's law; the current is proportional to the applied voltage over a wide range. Its resistance, equal to the reciprocal of the slope of the line, is constant ...

    A new sex trend among college students is getting attention on TikTok − and it has doctors worried.. That trend is using honey packets, a controversial supplement marketed for sexual enhancement ...

  8. Capability curve - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Capability_curve

    The fixed speed wind turbines without a power converter (also known as "Type 1" and "Type 2" [5]) cannot be used for voltage control. They simply absorb the reactive power (like any typical induction machine), so a switched capacitor bank is usually used to correct the power factor to unity.
