Estimating The Capacitor Sizes Required For Improving The Instantaneous and The Average Power Factor

1. The document describes a MATLAB program to estimate the minimum and maximum capacitor sizes required to improve the instantaneous and average power factor of two feeders, Feeder KC13 and KD13. 2. The program calculates the minimum and maximum capacitor sizes for each feeder based on the minimum and maximum power factors and loads. It then calculates the fixed capacitor size for each feeder. 3. The program then recalculates the instantaneous and average power factors for each feeder using the fixed capacitor sizes to demonstrate the improvement in power factor.
