Lecture 1 The basic laws of electrical circuits
Basic notions • Carriers of electricity: electrons and protons of atom • Electric current: the ordered movement of electrical charges q in time, measured as i=dq/dt. Denoted by the letter i. Its unit is amper (A) • Electric voltage: the difference of potentials between two points of the conducting media (circuit). Denoted by the letter u. The unit of voltage is volt (V). • Electric circuits: the connection of electrical elements enabling the flow of current in such connection.
Basic notions (cont.) • Branch – one or more circuit elements connected together of two external terminals accessible for connection to other elements. • Node – the terminal of the circuit enabling to connect the next branches. The nodes are separated by the branch. • Mesh – the set of circuit branches forming closed way (loop) for the current. • Element – the smallest part of the circuit of strictly defined function.
Basic notions (cont.) • Passive elements - the electric elements able to either accumulate or dissipate the energy. They don’t generate energy. To this set belong: resistor, capacitor and inductor. • Active element (sources): the elements generating the electrical energy. It is usually generated by converting from other types of energy (mechanical, solar, nuclear, etc). This set is formed by independent and controlled sources of either voltage or current type. • Linear element – the circuit element described by the linear relation between its voltage and current signals. • Nonlinear element - the element described by the nonlinear relation between its voltage and current signals.
Resistor Graphical symbol of linear resistor Mathematical description (Ohm’s law) R – resistance G = 1/R – conductance The unit of resistance is om () and of conductance siemens (S).
Inductor Graphical symbol of inductor Mathematical description • – flux linkage (unit: Weber = Vs) • L– self-inductance (inductance) , (unit: Henr = Ωs)
Capacitor Mathematical description • q – charge (unit kulomb = As) • C– capacitance (unit: farad = As/V) Graphical symbol of capacitor
Independent sources Graphical symbols of a) voltage, b) current source Current-voltage characteristics of : a) voltage source, b) current source
Independent sources (cont.) • Voltage on the terminals of the ideal voltage source is independent on the current flowing through it. • Internal resistance of the ideal voltage source (R=dv/di) is equal zero (short circuit). • Current of the ideal current source is independent on the voltage (load of the source). • Internal resistance of the ideal current source (R=dv/di) is equal infinity (open circuit).
Controlled sources - description • Voltage controlled voltage source • Current controlled voltage source • Voltage controlled current source • Current controlled current source
Controlled sources – circuit structures Graphical symbols of controlled sources
Kirchhoff’s laws • Current law (KCL) • Voltage law (KVL)
Example 1 • KCL equations: • KVL equations:
Example 2 Determine the currents and voltages in the circuit at following values of parameters: R1=1, R2=2, R3 = 3, R4 = 4, e = 10V, iz1 = 2A, iz2 = 5A.
Equations of the circuit • KCL and KVL equations • Equations including Ohm’s law • Solution: • i1 = 3,187A, i2 = 0,875A, i3 = 3,812A oraz i4 = -2,062A.
