KV is the unit used for VOLTAGE measurement. AC power is complex quantity that is it has both magnitude and direction and hence has two parts real part and imaginary part. complex power is measured in KVA (kilo volts amps) real part (active component ) is measured in KW (kilo watts) imaginary part (reactive component) is measured in KVAR (kilo volts amps reactive)

What is Kvr?

kV is kilovolts, kW is kilowatts, kVA is kilovolt amps and kVAR is kilovolt-amps reactive. A common formula is kVA-squared = kW-squared + kVAR-squared.


How do you calculate kvar from micro-farad?

kvar = kva*sin@


How do you calculate KVAR from micro farads?

kvar = kva*sin@


What is the KVAR if kva is 1750 and kw is 1225?

The KVAR will be 1249.75, the power factor is .7. KVAR = sqrt [ KVA^2 - kW^2 ]


How does kvar work?

kvar can be calculated as follows the a product KVA andt the sine of the angle between the KVA and KW.

Convert 800kvar to kw?

The same way, as you convert Appels to Carrots ........... There is a formula: KVAr = KVA / KW or cos=KW/KVA > Yes, we are treating KW, KVA, & KVAr as the 3 sides in a 90 deg TRIANGLE ! KW= vertical katede KVAr = horizontal katede KVA = hypotenuse


How many kVA equal kvar?

For normal power factors (pf=80%), you have 0.8 kW for every kva. In general however, kW = pf x kVA. Where pf is the power factor, it is the cosine of the angular difference between the voltage and the current of a circuit in alternating current circuits.


How calculate kvar if p is 560 kw and kva is 700?

The formula is that kW^2 + kVAR^2 equals kVA^2 or if you prefer, the kW and the kVAR are the two sides of a right angled triangle and the kVA is the hypotenuse. So here you have a 3-4-5 triangle times 140, in other words 420-560-700, and the kVAR is 420.


How much kva is equal to 80 kv?

To convert kilovolts (kV) to kilovolt-amperes (kVA), you need to know the power factor of the system, as kVA accounts for both voltage and current in an AC system. Without a specified power factor, you cannot directly convert kV to kVA. However, if you assume a power factor of 1 (which is ideal), then 80 kV would be equal to 80 kVA in a purely resistive load scenario.


How do you decide the number of capacitor for KVAR correction for a 2 unit of 1.5HP and 1 unit of 2.5HP air conditioner?

To determine the number of capacitors needed for KVAR correction for air conditioners, first calculate the total power requirement in kilovolt-amperes (KVA) by converting horsepower (HP) to KVA using the formula: KVA = HP × 0.746. For two 1.5 HP units and one 2.5 HP unit, the total KVA is approximately 3.73 KVA. Then, assess the existing power factor and the desired power factor to calculate the required KVAR for correction using the formula: Required KVAR = KVA × (tan(acos(existing power factor)) - tan(acos(desired power factor))). Finally, select capacitors that match the calculated KVAR.
