The Power, 3-ph component computes the mean value of the instantaneous active power P (in watts) and reactive power Q (in vars) associated with a periodic set of three-phase voltages and currents over a running window of one cycle of the specified fundamental frequency.

The output signal Q is accurate only for balanced and harmonic-free three-phase voltages and currents.

The output is held constant to the specified Initial active power and Initial reactive power values for one cycle of the specified fundamental frequency.

Internal Circuit of the Component

Example Model

This example demonstrates the usage of the 3-phase power calculation block. A 240V 60Hz signal connected to a 3kW 0.6 kVar load is used for demonstration.

Note that the following demo requires that users edit the ScopeView template, and replace the existing .oprec data source with the data generated during the simulation.
