Resonance, Resonant Frequency, Series and Parallel Resonance
In the posts on inductance and capacitance, we have learned that both conditions are reactive and can provide opposition to current flow, but for opposite reasons. Therefore, it is important…
Impedance in RLC Circuits
Impedance in an R-C-L series circuit is equal to the phasor sum of resistance, inductive reactance, and capacitive reactance (Figure 8). Figure 8 : Series R-C-L Impedance-Phasor The below Equations…
Impedance in RC Circuits
In a capacitive circuit, as in an inductive circuit, impedance is the resultant of phasor addition of R and XC. The below Equation is the mathematical representation for impedance in…
Impedance in RL Circuits
Impedance is the resultant of phasor addition of R and XL. The symbol for impedance is Z. Impedance is the total opposition to the flow of current and is expressed…
Impedance
Whenever inductive and capacitive components are used in an AC circuit, the calculation of their effects on the flow of current is important. Impedance No circuit is without some resistance,…
Capacitance and Capacitive Reactance
Capacitors The variation of an alternating voltage applied to a capacitor, the charge on the capacitor, and the current flowing through the capacitor are represented by Figure 3. Figure 3…
Voltage and Current Phase Relationships in an Inductive Circuit
As previously stated, any change in current in a coil (either a rise or a fall) causes a corresponding change of the magnetic flux around the coil. Because the current…
Inductance and Inductive Reactance
Inductance Any device relying on magnetism or magnetic fields to operate is a form of inductor. Motors, generators, transformers, and coils are inductors. The use of an inductor in a…
AC Generation Analysis : Effective Values, Phase Angle and Frequency
Analysis of the AC power generation process and of the alternating current we use in almost every aspect of our lives is necessary to better understand how AC power is…
