Calculate Power Added Efficiency





Formula

The formula to calculate the Power Added Efficiency (PAE) is:

\[ PAE = \frac{Po - Pin}{Pdc} \cdot 100 \]

Where:

Example

Let's say the power output (Po) is 100 watts, the power input (Pin) is 20 watts, and the DC power (Pdc) is 150 watts. Using the formula:

\[ PAE = \frac{100 - 20}{150} \cdot 100 \]

We get:

\[ PAE = \frac{80}{150} \cdot 100 = 53.33 \% \]

So, the Power Added Efficiency is 53.33%.
