    Very precise and concise - to my opinion best ltspice resource channel. Constantin Budeanu was a forerunner talking about deforming power and his thesis have just been proven by your little nice experiment.

    Total Power Factor = Active Power/(Vrms*Irms); This method looks to be easy for calculating PF even for cases like distortion and displacement factors are present.

    It would be nice if you made a video about three phase circuits in LTspice. I have found only one video about it in youtube and it has really not much information, only how to simulate a delta source. Things like the power factor and THD in non linear loads is something quite tricky, also when trying to simulate real world measurements such as with two, three wattmeters methods. I am simulating in LTspice for example a three phase inverter fed by diode bridge and transformer, and need to measure power factor, displacement factor and so on, the transformer until now is the most complicated.
    P.S: Just a suggestion for a future video, greetings from Brazil.

    Your LTspice video library is really wonderful. But how about SiC MOSFET's? Do you mind if you simulate SiC MOSFET circuit on LTspice? Some companies such as Cree has given their SiC MOSFET LTsice models. If you simulate them you will both enlarge your library and teach us also an unknown thing and help me my problems. Thank you a lot...

    • @FesZElectronics
      @FesZElectronics  4 роки тому

      Well the major advantage of that method is that it will filter out any noise - it let's you analyze the phase and gain of a clearly defined signal frequency.

    Thanks for nice video. However, isn't it faster to get phase and powers just to perform .ac with amplitude = Vrms and then to plot impedance to get phase, and V*I, re(V*I), and Im(V*I)?

    • @FesZElectronics
      @FesZElectronics  3 роки тому +1

      The issue with .ac simulations is that they are performed as small signal analysis around the operating point. If your circuit is purely passive (inductors/capacitors/resistors) it will work; but once you add active non linear components - like diodes, the simulation will not take into account the switching (conduction/non-conduction) behavior.

      In case you did not alter the default settings, this will cause the text to appear blue. So a spice directive is black and a comment is blue. That might make this more obvious in the future.

    Could we have just added 360 degrees to the phase shift, without the extra math? Seems to me we would have arrived at the 59 degrees much quicker that way.

      Ha! The problem is not the syntax. In my videos I used the extra command ".options plotwinsize=0"; this means that LT will not compress the data of the signal points. By default, to save memory, the data points are compressed and this is affecting the measurement statements. Let me know if this works on your side.
