  2. Phasor - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Phasor

    Phasor notation (also known as angle notation) is a mathematical notation used in electronics engineering and electrical engineering.A vector whose polar coordinates are magnitude and angle is written . [13] can represent either the vector (⁡, ⁡) or the complex number ⁡ + ⁡ =, according to Euler's formula with =, both of which have magnitudes of 1.

    Phasor diagram of Ferranti effect in Cable. In electrical engineering, the Ferranti effect is the increase in voltage occurring at the receiving end of a very long (> 200 km) AC electric power transmission line, relative to the voltage at the sending end, when the load is very small, or no load is connected. It can be stated as a factor, or as ...

  4. Split-phase electric power - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Split-phase_electric_power

    A transformer supplying a three-wire distribution system has a single-phase input (primary) winding. The output (secondary) winding has a center tap connected to a grounded neutral. As shown in Fig. 1, either end to center has half the voltage of end-to-end. Fig. 2 illustrates the phasor diagram

  5. Voltage regulation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Voltage_regulation

    The vector sum of V R and the voltage drops equals V S, and it is apparent in the diagrams that V S does not equal V R in magnitude or phase angle. Voltage phasor diagrams for a short transmission line serving lagging, in-phase, and leading loads. The diagrams show that the phase angle of current in the line affects voltage regulation ...

  6. Quadrature booster - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Quadrature_booster

    400 MVA 220/155 kV phase-shifting transformer.. A phase angle regulating transformer, phase angle regulator (PAR, American usage), phase-shifting transformer, phase shifter (West coast American usage), or quadrature booster (quad booster, British usage), is a specialised form of transformer used to control the flow of real power on three-phase electric transmission networks.

  7. 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 Voltage, voltage angles, real power and reactive power.

  8. Symmetrical components - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Symmetrical_components

    Set of three unbalanced phasors, and the necessary symmetrical components that sum up to the resulting plot at the bottom. In 1918 Charles Legeyt Fortescue presented a paper [4] which demonstrated that any set of N unbalanced phasors (that is, any such polyphase signal) could be expressed as the sum of N symmetrical sets of balanced phasors, for values of N that are prime.

  9. Transformer - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Transformer

    Referring to the diagram, a practical transformer's physical behavior may be represented by an equivalent circuit model, which can incorporate an ideal transformer. [16] Winding joule losses and leakage reactance are represented by the following series loop impedances of the model: Primary winding: R P, X P; Secondary winding: R S, X S.
