Dielectric Loss Solution

STEP 0: Pre-Calculation Summary

Formula Used

Power Loss = Voltage^2/(2*Capacitive Reactance)*sin(2*Phase Difference)
P_l = V^2/(2*X_c)*sin(2*Φ)
This formula uses 1 Functions, 4 Variables

Functions Used

sin - Sine is a trigonometric function that describes the ratio of the length of the opposite side of a right triangle to the length of the hypotenuse., sin(Angle)

Variables Used

Power Loss - (Measured in Watt) - Power Loss is the amount of power lost during the heating.
Voltage - (Measured in Volt) - Voltage is the pressure from an electrical circuit's power source that pushes charged electrons (current) through a conducting loop, enabling them to do work such as illuminating a light.
Capacitive Reactance - (Measured in Ohm) - Capacitive Reactance is the measure of the opposition to alternating current by the capacitor.
Phase Difference - (Measured in Radian) - Phase Difference is the time interval by which a wave leads by or lags by another wave.

STEP 1: Convert Input(s) to Base Unit

Voltage: 200 Volt --> 200 Volt No Conversion Required
Capacitive Reactance: 380 Ohm --> 380 Ohm No Conversion Required

What is the difference between real power and reactive power?

Real Power is equal to the Reactive Power i.e. there is no VAr in DC Circuits. Only Real Power exists. There is no Reactive Power in DC circuits due to the zero phase angle (Φ) between current and voltage. Real power is important to produce heat and utilize the electric and magnetic field generated by Reactive Power.
