  2. 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 ...

  3. Power (physics) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Power_(physics)

    Power is the rate with respect to time at which work is done; it is the time derivative of work: =, where P is power, W is work, and t is time.. We will now show that the mechanical power generated by a force F on a body moving at the velocity v can be expressed as the product: = =

  4. Harmonics (electrical power) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Harmonics_(electrical_power)

    In an electric power system, a harmonic of a voltage or current waveform is a sinusoidal wave whose frequency is an integer multiple of the fundamental frequency.Harmonic frequencies are produced by the action of non-linear loads such as rectifiers, discharge lighting, or saturated electric machines.

  5. Sound power - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sound_power

    Sound power or acoustic power is the rate at which sound energy is emitted, reflected, transmitted or received, per unit time. [1] It is defined [2] as "through a surface, the product of the sound pressure, and the component of the particle velocity, at a point on the surface in the direction normal to the surface, integrated over that surface."

  6. Poynting vector - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Poynting_vector

    A phasor such as E m is understood to signify a sinusoidally varying field whose instantaneous amplitude E(t) follows the real part of E m e jωt where ω is the (radian) frequency of the sinusoidal wave being considered. In the time domain, it will be seen that the instantaneous power flow will be fluctuating at a frequency of 2ω.

  7. Three-phase electric power - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Three-phase_electric_power

    The phase order is 1–2–3. This sequence repeats each cycle, and thus the rotational frequency of the generator sets the frequency of the power system. Ideally, each phase's voltage, current, and power is offset from the others' by 120°, thus having all at equidistance. This symmetry can also be recreated in converters.

  8. AC power - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/AC_power

    The formula for complex power (units: VA) in phasor form is: ... whether it is a low frequency line cycle or a high frequency power converter switching period. The ...
