Power Factor Correction - MATLAB & Simulink https://www.mathworks.com/solutions/power-electronics-control/power-f... Power Electronics Control Design with Simulink Power Factor Correction Design, tune, and verify power factor correction algorithms using simulation Power factor for an AC circuit is the ratio of the instantaneous real power used by an electrical load to the apparent power running through the circuit. It is a measure of how effectively power is transmitted and used by loads attached to an electrical grid. Real Power (kW) Power Factor = Apparent Power (kVA) In a purely linear circuit, Power Factor = cosθ where θ is the angle between the real power and the apparent power in the vector power triangle below. Vector power triangle. A power factor closer to 1 provides the maximum utilization of power drawn from the grid. A low power factor indicates inductive or capacitive elements in the circuit causing the current drawn to lag or lead the voltage, respectively, decreasing the
