Power Factor Correction

Power Factor Correction

Find the MVAR needed to achieve a power factor of 99.8% .
The transformer rating is 650 MVA.

Easy to use: Click the white input box then enter new number. Or click the clear button then enter new number. Please remember if your input is in VA, then reactive power is in VAR
If your input is in kVA, then reactive power is in kVAR
If your input is in MVA, then reactive power is in MVAR.

Step 1. Click the clear button

Then enter VA or kVA or MVA . Next go to Step 2 enter desired power factor. Finally select button Solve, Q.

Given VA or kVA or MVA

Step 2. Enter desired power factor in percent, do not enter the percent symbol

Desired Power factor in ( % ) = %

Var or kVar or MVar

Active Power =

Watt or kW or MW

Calculated VAR support needed to achieve the target power factor (If your input is VA) or
kVAR support needed to achieve the target power factor (if your input is kVA) or
MVAR support needed to achieve the target power factor (if your input is MVA)

To do scenario analysis, simply raise the target power factor and solve for the needed VAR or kVAR or MVAR support.

Reactive Power Needed = plus or minus

Reactive power both capacitive and inductive is needed to create and maintain a changing magnetic flux for constant voltage transformation from high voltage for example 69,000 volts to 12,470 low voltage. Watch the video below about a constant 60 cyles per second changing magnetic flux to induced a voltage in secondary winding to make voltage transformation possible.

LinkedIn shared lecture to demonstrate electro-magnetic induction principle
from Professor Walter Lewin


Shunt Capacitor, provides capacitive reactive power

Shunt Reactor, provides inductive reactive power

Voltage and Magnetic Flux directly proportional

Magnetic Flux and Current Characteristic Curve

Matlab Simulink of Reactor Energization

Static equipment such as static synchronous compensators (STATCOMs) and static VAR compensators (SVCs) [1] are now often used for reactive power production. SVCs and STATCOMs have the advantage of faster responses

Inductive and capacitive reactive power has zero average reactive power measured every 1 cycle sliding window or 2 pi or 6.28 radian

The reactive power is needed to maintain the alternating magnetic flux in order to create and maintain induced voltage and current to make voltage transformation possible.

I want to show the connection of fundamental principle about current leading the voltage in a sine waveform of a near perfect capacitive circuit. This time the connection is to leading power factor (p.f) as shown in a generator capability curve.

When you switch on or connect capacitors bank to improve the power factor to near unity power factor or 99.99% p.f. , you are importing VAR (KVAR, MVAR).

Utility operator uses the term VAR support (meaning they are going to switch on the capacitor circuit breaker). The leading power factor remember derives its meaning from current leading the voltage if you graph the voltage and current waveform measured at capacitor terminal.

Negative power factor (- pf) is usually associated to inductive load exporting power and lagging power factor

Positive power factor (+ pf) is usually associated to capacitive load and importing power and leading power factor.

In power load flow analysis the power leaving the bus voltage node is associated to lagging power factor and designated by negative power factor (- pf)
while the power entering the bus voltage node is associated to leading power factor and designated by positive power factor (+ pf).

How can IN-V-BAT-AI be used in classrooms ?

IN-V-BAT-AI is a valuable classroom tool that enhances both teaching and learning experiences. Here are some ways it can be utilized:

⋆ Personalized Learning : By storing and retrieving knowledge in the cloud, students can access tailored resources and revisit concepts they struggle with, ensuring a more individualized learning journey.

⋆ Memory Support : The tool helps students recall information even when stress or distractions hinder their memory, making it easier to retain and apply knowledge during homework assignments or projects.

⋆ Bridging Learning Gaps : It addresses learning loss by providing consistent access to educational materials, ensuring that students who miss lessons can catch up effectively.

⋆ Teacher Assistance : Educators can use the tool to provide targeted interventions to support learning.

⋆ Stress Reduction : By alleviating the pressure of memorization, students can focus on understanding and applying concepts, fostering a deeper engagement with the material.

🧠 IN-V-BAT-AI vs. Traditional EdTech: Why "Never Forget" Changes Everything

📚 While most EdTech platforms focus on delivering content or automating classrooms, IN-V-BAT-AI solves a deeper problem: forgetting.

✨Unlike adaptive learning systems that personalize what you learn, IN-V-BAT-AI personalizes what you remember. With over 504 pieces of instantly retrievable knowledge, it's your cloud-based memory assistant—built for exam prep, lifelong learning, and stress-free recall.

• ✅ One-click access to formulas, calculators, and concepts
• 📧 No coding, no hosting—just email what you want to remember
• 📱 Live within 24 hours, optimized for mobile and voice search
• 💸 $30/year for 504 personalized knowledge sites (just 6¢ each)

"🧠 Forget less. Learn more. Remember on demand."
That's the IN-V-BAT-AI promise.

Personal Augmented Intelligence (AI) Explanation

🧠 Augmented Intelligence vs Artificial Intelligence

Understanding the difference between collaboration and automation

🔍 Messaging Contrast

Augmented Intelligence is like a co-pilot: it amplifies your strengths, helps you recall, analyze, and decide — but it never flies solo.

Artificial Intelligence is more like an autopilot: designed to take over the controls entirely, often without asking.

💡 Why It Matters for IN-V-BAT-AI

IN-V-BAT-AI is a textbook example of Augmented Intelligence. It empowers learners with one-click recall, traceable results, and emotionally resonant memory tools. Our “Never Forget” promise isn't about replacing human memory — it's about enhancing it.

Note: This is not real data — it is synthetic data generated using Co-Pilot to compare and contrast IN-V-BAT-AI with leading EdTech platforms.
