KVAR Calculator - Optimizing Your Power System
KVAR Calculator is a free Android application developed by Samir Maity that helps you calculate the required kvar in your power system and corrects your power factor. It aims to increase system efficiency by minimizing the amount of current that flows through the electrical network. The calculator provides a simple way to determine the required Capacitor in kvar in your system and improve your power factor.
Lower power factors lead to more current flow, and it is advisable to have a higher power factor (≤1) so that the network carries only active power. The PF improvement is achieved by installing capacitors near the load centers, which improve the power factor from the point of installation back to the generating station. KVAR Calculator also provides information about harmonics in power systems.
This application is useful for motor power factor correction and designing APFC (Automatic Power Factor Correction) panels. It is an essential tool for those who want to optimize their power system and increase its efficiency. The application is easy to use and provides accurate results.
