Lect 7: Simulation of power factor correction in single & three phases' circuits using Simulink

In this video, the simulation of the power factor correction in single-phase and three-phase circuits using Simulink /MATLAB are presented. The power factor of highly inductive loads is improved by introducing capacitors, capacitors sizing is presented as well. This video is part of a series of short videos (lectures) which covers: 1- Modelling and simulation of separately excited DC motors 2- Modelling and simulation of permanent magnet DC motors 3- Modelling and simulation of shunt-connected DC machines 4- Modelling and simulation of series-connected DC machines 5- Modelling and simulation of single-phase (two-winding) transformers 6- Modelling and simulation of single-phase (three-winding) transformers 7- Simulation of single and three phases power factor correction 8- Modelling and simulation of transmission lines 9- Simulation of distribution networks (IEEE 13-bus system)
