varus - a deformity in which part of a limb is turned inward to an abnormal degree. deformity, malformation, misshapenness - an affliction in which some part of the body is misshapen or malformed. valgus - a deformity in which there is an abnormal displacement of part of a limb away from the midline of the body.
VAR is a unit of reactive power (complex power) and stands for Volt Amperes Reactive. Unlike the intuitive Direct Current power, where electric current and electric potential deliver energy continuously in one direction, in AC systems the electric potential (Voltage) reverses polarity rapidly causing current flow to reverse at the same frequency.
