Power factor for purely inductive circuit is 0 and power factor angle is 90 degree. Power factor for purely capacitive circuit is 0 and power factor angle is 90 degree Power factor for purely resistive circuit is 1 and power factor angle is 0 degree
The V-curves of a synchronous motor show relationship between Armature current (Ia) and Excitation current (If). The Inverted V-curves of a synchronous motor show relationship between power factor (pf) and field excitation (If).
