Hi Members,
Why the reactive power is not considered during calculation of efficiency of SMPS?
As per my understanding reactive power is generally not desired and isn't the reactive power due to the SMPS itself? Then why aren't we considering it in the calculation of efficiency by using apparent power like below:
Efficiency = Output power / Input apparent power
Thank you!
