- Description
- The paper outlines the design and simulation of active power factor correction for a 100 hp induction motor using MATLAB/Simulink. In this system, the induction motor functions as the primary load, operating with a low power factor. Different load scenarios are simulated to examine the motor's performance. The current drawn from the supply is verified under varying conditions, both with and without the implementation of a variable capacitance bank. The power system network comprises apparatus such as Induction Motors, Power Transformers, and Induction Furnaces, contributing to a low power factor. The resultant low power factor leads to elevated energy consumption. To mitigate this, power factor correction is imperative. Utilizing a variable capacitance proves instrumental in enhancing the power factor. The capacitor compensates for a portion of the reactive power, consequently reducing the total reactive power drawn from the source. This reduction in reactive power contributes to an overall decrease in power consumption. The research focus is on the effective correction of the power factor for a 100 hp induction motor through comprehensive design and simulation using MATLAB/Simulink, providing valuable insights into the impact of variable capacitance on current draw under diverse load conditions. 2024 IEEE.
