Abstract

Engineering Engineering, Electrical & Electronic Science & Technology Technology
Optimization criteria are presented which allows proper calculation of optimal power factor. Optimization minimizes the line loss, maximizes the power factor and maximizes the efficiency taking into consideration the skin effect. The performance of the obtained capacitor is discussed by means of numerical example. (C) 2002 Elsevier Science B.V. All rights reserved.
