P = V x I (W)
I = V / R (A)
Voltage V = V (Volt)
Current I = A (Ampere)
Resistance R = Ω (Ohm)
Rt (combined resistance)
R1, R2, R3,..... Rn (individual resistance)
Y ( Y wiring)), Δ (Delta wiring))
Power P = W (Watt)
- Power density WD = W/Cm²
- Heater diameter D = Cm (Diameter)
- Length of heating part HL = Cm (Heating Length)
P = V x I (W)
I = V / R (A)
P = V²/ R = I²x R
R = V²/ P = P / I²
Ex) What is the resistance when voltage is 220V, and power is 500W ?
R = (220x220) / 500 = 96.8 Ω
Ex) If resistance is 48.4Ω and voltage is 220V, what is the capacity ?
P = V²/ R = (220x220) / 48.4 = 1,000W
* When only the resistance is available, voltages of 110V, 127V, 220V, 254V, 380V, etc are substituted to gain capacity. Then, power should be compared.
P = 48400 / R (for 220V of voltage)
R = 48400 / P (for 220V of voltage)
Rt = R1 + R2 + R3 + ....... + Rn
(1/Rt) = (1/R1) + (1/R2) + (1/R3) + .... + (1/Rn)
Rt = 1/(1/R1 + 1/R2 + 1/R3 + .... +1/Rn)
WD = P / (π x D x HL) (W/Cm²)
Line voltage = Vs , Phase voltage = Vw, Line current = As, Phase current = Aw
※ Vw = Vs / √3 (√3 = 1.732050808)
※ As = Aw
Ex) When AC is 380V 3Φ and total capacity is 1200W, the individual capacity for heater is 1200W / 3 = 400W and voltage (Vw) is 380 / √3 = 219.393V
Therefore, three heaters of 220V 400W should be prepared, and Star wired.
Line voltage = Vs , phase voltage = Vw, Line current = As, phase current = Aw
※ Vw = Vs
※ Aw = As / √3 (√3 = 1.732050808)
Ex) When AC is 380V 3Φ and total capacity is 1200W, individual capacity of heater is 1200W / 3 = 400W and voltage (Vw) is Vw=Vs, 380V
Therefore, three heaters of 380V 400W should be prepared and Delta wired.
Q = I² x R x T (J) = 0.239 x I² x R x T (cal)
Q = Calorie(J) / I = Current(A) / R = Resistance(Ω) / T = Time(sec)
