In RLC parallel circuit, resistor, inductor, and capacitors are connected in parallel across Alternating current source. In contrast to the RLC series circuit, the voltage across each component is the same and is taken as reference in the phasor diagram.
RLC Series circuit contains a resistor, capacitor, and inductor in series combination across an alternating current source. The behavior of components can be explained by phasor diagrams, impedance and voltage triangles.
This handbook is a textbook for power electronics Starting from the electronics devices like Diodes, Transistors, SCR and so on. Then Muhammad H. Rashid explains its applications like DC-DC, DC-AC, AC-DC, AC-AC converter.
Phasor diagram in an AC circuit analysis is to represent the phase angle i.e. leading and lagging effect through vector representation. Phasor algebra, polar form, and complex number conversions are also explained.
The author Ned Mohan tried his best to prepare students for industries by providing a broad and depth knowledge of power electronics by giving the gift of “The first course on Power Electronics and Drive”.
Power Factor (PF) play an important role in average power dissipation in an ac circuit. PF leads to the concept of three different real, reactive and apparent power, which is better explained by Power triangle.
Capacitor and inductor oppose current in AC circuit because of inertia of electron motion, which is called capacitive and inductive reactance respectfully.
In RL series circuit, during the inductor charging phase, the voltage across the inductor gradually decrease to zero and the current through the inductor goes to the maximum in five-times constant (5 taus).
PSpice for Circuit Theory and Electronic Devices is one of a series of five PSpice books and introduces the latest Cadence Orcad PSpice version 10.5 by simulating a range of DC and AC exercises.
