Power, reactive and apparent power and power factor calculations
(for sinusoidal Voltage and Current)
Explanation of the power calculator program for Ti-84: ONEPHASE.8XP
Definitions
The calculation of power, power factor, reactive power and current is a very important subject in Electrical Engineering.
4 Different inputs in this Ti program are possible.
Definitions according to electrical network theory for sinusoidal signals.
Formulas: Pc=U.I *= complex power, I*= conjugate of I, definition conjugate: (a+bi)*=(a-bi)
abs(Pc)=apparent power (VA)=Pa,
Re(Pc)= real power (Watt)=Ptrue,
Im(Pc)=reactive power (Var)= Pr
cos(Ï•) or power factor (Pf)= (real power)/(apparent power)=Ptrue/Pa
