The formula to calculate the capacitor size is:
\[ C = \frac{E}{0.5 \cdot V^2} \]
Where:
A capacitor size is defined as the total capacitance required in a capacitor to handle a certain voltage in an electric motor with a given start-up energy. This capacitance ensures that the capacitor can provide the necessary energy for the motor to start and operate efficiently.
Let's assume the following values:
Using the formula:
\[ C = \frac{50}{0.5 \cdot 230^2} = \frac{50}{0.5 \cdot 52900} = \frac{50}{26450} = 0.001891 \, \text{farads} \]
The Capacitor Size is 0.001891 farads.
Let's assume the following values:
Using the formula:
\[ C = \frac{100}{0.5 \cdot 120^2} = \frac{100}{0.5 \cdot 14400} = \frac{100}{7200} = 0.013889 \, \text{farads} \]
The Capacitor Size is 0.013889 farads.
