renpow (version 0.1-1)

AC power: AC power in the time and frequency domain

Description

Calculates and plots AC power in the domain and phasors. Includes complex number calculations.

Usage

inst.pow.calc(x, freq = 60, nc = 2)
inst.pow.plot(x, rms = FALSE, freq = 60, nc = 2)
inst.pow.leg(ang, lab, ym, w, units, pf)
complex.pow.calc(xc, dig = 2, res = TRUE)
complex.pow.plot(cp)
complex.pow.tri(cp)
pf.corr(P, V, pf, pfc, w = 377, dig = 2)
pf.corr.tri(xpfc)

Details

inst.pow.calc calculates time domain isntantaneous power given current and voltage phasors. Its output is passed to inst.pow.plot. inst.pow.plot produces time domain plots given current and voltage phasors. It uses inst.pow.leg to display legend
