Maximum Average Power Transfer • To obtain the maximum average power transfer to a load, the load impedance (ZL) should be chosen equal to the complex conjugate of the Thevenin equivalent impedance representing the remainder of the network ZL = RL + j XL = RTh - j XTh = ZTh* Lecture 6
ZTh + Voc ZL - Maximum Average Power Transfer ZL = ZTh* • Note that ONLY the resistive component of the load dissipates power Lecture 6
Max Power Xfer: Cases Lecture 6
Class Examples • Extension Exercise E9.5 • Extension Exercise E9.6 Lecture 6
Effective or RMS Values • Root-mean-square value (formula reads like the name: rms) • For a sinusoid: Irms = IM/2 • For example, AC household outlets are 120 Volts-rms Lecture 6
Why RMS Values? • The effective/rms current allows us to write average power expressions like those used in dc circuits (i.e., P=I²R), and that relation is really the basis for defining the rms value • The average power (P) is Lecture 6
