Power using Two Wattmeter Method Solution

STEP 0: Pre-Calculation Summary

Formula Used

Total Power = sqrt(3)*Total Phase Voltage*One Phase Current*cos(Phase Angle)
P_t = sqrt(3)*V_ph*I₁*cos(Φ)
This formula uses 2 Functions, 4 Variables

Functions Used

cos - Cosine of an angle is the ratio of the side adjacent to the angle to the hypotenuse of the triangle., cos(Angle)
sqrt - A square root function is a function that takes a non-negative number as an input and returns the square root of the given input number., sqrt(Number)

Variables Used

Total Power - (Measured in Watt) - Total Power refers to the sum of the electrical power consumed or generated by the load being measured in a wattmeter.
Total Phase Voltage - (Measured in Volt) - Total Phase Voltage refers to the algebraic sum of all voltage drops or rises across components in a circuit, considering both magnitude and direction.
One Phase Current - (Measured in Ampere) - One Phase Current is the electrical current flowing through the load to determine the power consumption or generation in a single phase circuit.
Phase Angle - (Measured in Radian) - Phase Angle is the measure of the difference in phase between two periodic signals. It indicates how much one signal is leading or lagging behind another.

STEP 1: Convert Input(s) to Base Unit

Total Phase Voltage: 12 Volt --> 12 Volt No Conversion Required
One Phase Current: 0.24 Ampere --> 0.24 Ampere No Conversion Required
Phase Angle: 1.04 Radian --> 1.04 Radian No Conversion Required

STEP 2: Evaluate Formula

Substituting Input Values in Formula

P_t = sqrt(3)*V_ph*I₁*cos(Φ) --> sqrt(3)*12*0.24*cos(1.04)

Evaluating ... ...
