In Fig. 12.91(a), C=100  \mu F ,  \nu(t)=V \cos (\omega t)    with f=60 Hz  and  V=15 V . The dissipation factor for the capacitor is  0.03 . The ESL and parallel resistance R_p   can be neglected. Find the power dissipated in the capacitor (in the ESR ).

We may determine the current through the model and the power dissipated in the  ESR , as follows: we refer to the model in Fig. 12.91(b), where (see Fig. 12.90)

\begin{aligned} X_s=-\frac{1}{\omega C} &=-\frac{1}{2 \pi(60 Hz )(100 \mu F )} \cong  -26.5  \Omega \\\\ R_s &=-X_s D=(26.5  \Omega)(0.03) \cong  0.80  \Omega \end{aligned}

Thus

Z_s=(0.80-j 26.5)  \Omega \cong  26.5 \angle-1.54  \Omega

and

\tilde{I}=\frac{\tilde{V}}{Z_s}=565 \angle 1.54  mA

The power dissipated in the ESR is

P=I_{r m s}{}^2 R_s=\frac{|\tilde{I}|^2}{2} R_s=127  mW

D=\frac{1}{Q}=\omega R_s C_s =\text{ dissipation factor.}     (12.122)

D=\omega R_s C_s = \frac{R_s}{-X_s}=-\tan (\delta) \cong \cos (\theta_Z) .           (12.123)
