- 7. Power factor Improvement Equipment 1.Static capacitor Advantage- 1.They have low losses 2.They require little maintenance as there are no rotating parts 3.They can be easily installed as they are light and require no foundation 4.They can work under ordinary atmospheric conditions Disadvantages 1.They have short services life ranging from 8 to 10 years. 2.They are easily damaged if the voltage exceeds the rated value. 3. Once the capacitors are damaged, there repair is uneconomical.
- 9. Asynchronous motor takes a leading current when over excited and ,therefore,they acts as a capacitor.An overexcited synchronous motor running on no load is known as synchronous condensor. Advantage- 1.By varying the field excitation ,the magnitude of current drawn by motor can be changed by any amount.this helps in achieving step less control of power factor. 2.The motor winding have high thermal stability to short circuit currents 3.The faults can be removed easily Disadvantages 1.There are considerable losses in the motor. 2.The maintenance cost is high. 3.It produces noise . 4.Except in sizes above 500kva ,the cost is greater than that of static capacitors of the same ratings. 5.As a synchronous motor has no self starting torque,therefore,an auxiliary equipment has to be provided for this purpose Synchronus Condensor
- 11. Phase advancer is a simple AC exciter which is connected on the main shaft of the motor and operates with the motor’s rotor circuit for power factor improvement. Phase advancer is used to improve the power factor of induction motor in industries. As the stator windings of induction motor takes lagging current 90° out of phase with Voltage, therefore the power factor of induction motor is low. If the exciting ampere- turns are excited by external AC source, then there would be no effect of exciting current on stator windings. Therefore, the power factor of induction motor will be improved. This process is done by Phase advancer. Advantages: 1-Lagging kVAR (Reactive component of Power or reactive power) drawn by the motor is sufficiently reduced because the exciting ampere turns are supplied at slip frequency (fs). 2-The phase advancer can be easily used where the use of synchronous motors is Unacceptable Disadvantage: 1-Using Phase advancer is not economical for motors below 200 H.P. (About 150 KW) Phase advancer

- 25. What are the effects of harmonics on motor operation and performance? Harmonics increase motor losses, and can adversely affect the operation of sensitive auxiliary equipment. The non-sinusoidal supply results in harmonic currents in the stator which increases the total current drawn. In addition, the rotor resistance (or more precisely, impedance) increases significantly at harmonic frequencies, leading to less efficient operation. Also, stray load losses can increase significantly at harmonic frequencies. Overall motor losses increase by about 20% with a six-step voltage waveform compared to operation with a sinusoidal supply. In some cases the motor may have to be de-rated as a result of the losses. Alternatively, additional circuitry and switching devices can be employed to minimize losses. Instability can also occur due to the interaction between the motor and the converter. This is especially true of motors of low rating, which have low inertia. Harmonics can also contribute to low power factor.
- 26. Correction of Poor power factor Write some strategies for correcting poor power factor in motors? The following are strategies for correcting power factor in motors: 1. Minimise operation of idling or lightly loaded motors 2. Ensuring correct supply of rated voltage and phase balance 3. Installing capacitors to decrease reactive power loads
- 27. Capacitor rating The size of capacitor required for a particular motor depends upon the no-load reactive kVA (kVAR) drawn by the motor, which can be determined only from no-load testing of the motor. In general, for full loading operating motor, the capacitor selected to not exceed 90 % of the no-load kVAR of the motor. (Higher capacities could result in over-voltages and motor burn-outs). What is the thumb rule for installing capacitors to motor terminal? The size of capacitor required for a particular motor depends upon the no-load reactive kVA (kVAR) drawn by the motor, which can be determined only from no-load testing of the motor. In general, the capacitor is then selected to not exceed 90 % of the no-load kVAR of the motor. (Higher capacities could result in over-voltages and motor burn-outs). Alternatively, typical power factors of standard motors can provide the basis for conservative estimates of capacitor ratings to use for different size motors.
- 28. Star Connected motors Why is it beneficial to operate motors in star mode for under loaded motors? For motors which consistently operate at loads below 50 % of rated capacity, an inexpensive and effective measure might be to operate in star mode. A change from the standard delta operation to star operation involves re-configuring the wiring of the three phases of power input at the terminal box. Operating in the star mode leads to a voltage reduction by a factor of ‘square root of 3’. Motor output falls to one-third of the value in the delta mode, but performance characteristics as a function of load remain unchanged. Thus, full-load operation in star mode gives higher efficiency and power factor than partial load operation in the delta mode. However, motor operation in the star mode is possible only for applications where the torque-to-speed requirement is lower at reduced load.
