Dielectric Loss Formula Elements

Variables
Functions
Power Loss
Power Loss is the amount of power lost during the heating.
Symbol: Pl
Measurement: PowerUnit: VA
Note: Value should be greater than 0.
Voltage
Voltage is the pressure from an electrical circuit's power source that pushes charged electrons (current) through a conducting loop, enabling them to do work such as illuminating a light.
Symbol: V
Measurement: Electric PotentialUnit: V
Note: Value can be positive or negative.
Capacitive Reactance
Capacitive Reactance is the measure of the opposition to alternating current by the capacitor.
Symbol: Xc
Measurement: Electric ResistanceUnit: Ω
Note: Value should be greater than 0.
Phase Difference
Phase Difference is the time interval by which a wave leads by or lags by another wave.
Symbol: Φ
Measurement: AngleUnit: °
Note: Value should be greater than 0.
sin
Sine is a trigonometric function that describes the ratio of the length of the opposite side of a right triangle to the length of the hypotenuse.
Syntax: sin(Angle)

FAQs on Dielectric Loss

What is the formula to find Dielectric Loss?
The formula of Dielectric Loss is expressed as Power Loss = Voltage^2/(2*Capacitive Reactance)*sin(2*Phase Difference). Here is an example- 45.58028 = 200^2/(2*380)*sin(2*1.0471975511964).
How to calculate Dielectric Loss?
With Voltage (V), Capacitive Reactance (Xc) & Phase Difference (Φ) we can find Dielectric Loss using the formula - Power Loss = Voltage^2/(2*Capacitive Reactance)*sin(2*Phase Difference). This formula also uses Sine (sin) function(s).
Can the Dielectric Loss be negative?
No, the Dielectric Loss, measured in Power cannot be negative.
Which unit is used to measure Dielectric Loss?
Dielectric Loss is usually measured using the Volt Ampere[VA] for Power. Watt[VA], Kilowatt[VA], Milliwatt[VA] are the few other units in which Dielectric Loss can be measured.
