At work we have several different opinions ref the horsepower required to generate kVARs. I know there is a direct relationship to Kw and prime mover horsepower. I have read many articles ref kVAR and that there is no relationship to almost no required horsepower to deliver kVAR.
I am looking for a formula to convert kVAR to Hp. Much the same idea as the formula to convert Kw to Hp.
I've been researching this for the past 3 weeks and have came up with a multitude of explanations that there is no Hp required to generate kVAR. So I am convinced and so are most of the others at work. But I will need a mathimatical formula to convince the last 2 remaining hold outs. Thanks.
