Ohms Law Chapter 4Effect = Cause / OppositionWhereEffect = Flow of charge (Current)Cause = Potential Difference (Voltage)Opposition = ResistanceI = V / R or V = I R

Ohms LawI = V / R or V = I RNote the following:The symbol E for the voltage of the battery (a source of electrical energy),Whereas the loss in potential energy across the resistor is given by symbol VThe polarity of the voltage drop across the resistor is as shown

PowerWork is done in converting an energy into another form of energy e.g. mechanical into mechanical or electrical to mechanical or heat energy etc. For example rotating the spindle of a motor physically by hand or electrically.Power is defined as the work done in a specified amount of time, i.e. a rate of doing work.Energy (W for work done) is measured in joules (J)Time in seconds (s),Power is measured in joules/second (J/s). The electrical unit of measurement for power is the watt (W)Note:W for Energy, and W for Watt (Power)

PowerThe unit of measurement, the watt, is derived from the surname of James Watt He introduced the horsepower (hp) as a measure of the average power of a strong dray horse over a full working day. It is approximately 50% more than can be expected from the average horse.The horsepower and watt are related in the following manner:

PowerNow for power,

The power delivered to, or absorbed by, an electrical device or system can be found in terms of the current and voltage by substituting their values in terms of charge in coulomb and potential energy in joules.

From Chapter 2, we know for voltageIf a mass (m) is raised to some height (h) above a reference plane, it has a measure of potential energy expressed in joules (J) that is determined by

where g is the gravitational acceleration (9.754 m/s2). This mass now has the potential to do work such as crush an object placed on the reference plane.Algebraic manipulation in respect of charge gives,

From Chapter 2, we know for voltageIn general, the potential difference between two points is determined byA potential difference of 1 volt (V) exists between two points if 1 joule (J) of energy is exchanged in moving 1 coulomb (C) of charge between the two points.The unit of measurement volt (V) was chosen to honour Alessandro Volta

From Chapter 2, we know for currentThe current in amperes can now be calculated using the following equation:

The capital letter I was chosen from the French word for current: intensit.

PowerNow for power,The power delivered to, or absorbed by, an electrical system can be found in terms of the current and voltage by substituting their values in terms of charge in coulomb and potential energy in joules. Therefore,

Thus we have

PowerPower can be delivered or absorbed as defined by the polarity of the voltage and the direction of the current.Note that the current has the same direction as established by the source delivering the power in a single-source network. But in multisource network, the battery may be absorbing power e.g. when battery is being charged.

PowerFor resistive elements, all the power delivered is dissipated in the form of heatCurrent will always enter the terminal of higher potential corresponding with the absorbing state. A reversal of the current direction will also reverse the polarity of the voltage across the resistor.

PowerExample Find the power delivered to the dc motor

Solution:

PowerExample Determine current through a 5-k resistor when the power dissipated by the element is 20 mW.

Solution:

WattmetersCan we measure power, like we do with:voltmeters for voltage,ampmeter for current andohmmeter for resistance?If yes, how many terminals required in meter?

WattmetersThree voltage terminals may be available on the voltage side to permit a choice of voltage levels.On most wattmeters, the current terminals are physically larger than the voltage terminals to provide safety and to ensure a solid connection.

WattmetersIf the current coils (CC) and potential coils (PC) of the wattmeter are connected as shown in Fig, there will be an up-scale reading on the wattmeter. A reversal of either coil will result in a below-zero indication.

EfficiencyNote that output energy level are always less than the applied energy due to losses and storage within system

EfficiencyConservation of energy requires that:Energy input = Energy output + Energy lost or storedDividing both sides of the relationship by t gives

Since P = W / t, we have

EfficiencyThe efficiency () of the system is then determined by:. orwhere is a decimal number, but usually expressed as a percentage

In terms of the energy, the efficiency in percent is:

Efficiency

The maximum possible efficiency is 100%, which occurs when Wo = Wi or Po = Pi, or in other words when power lost or stored in the system is zero.Obviously, the greater the internal losses of the system in generating the necessary output power or energy, the lower the net efficiency.

EfficiencyExample A 2-hp motor operates at an efficiency of 75%. Whatis the power input in watts? If the applied voltage is 220 V, what is the input current?Solution:

EfficiencyExample If = 0.85, determine the output energy level if the applied energy is 50 JSolution:

EfficiencyThe very basic components of a generating (voltage) system are depicted in Fig

EfficiencyThe efficiency of each system is given by

If we form the product of these three efficiencies,

EfficiencyIf we form the product of these three efficiencies,

but Pi2 = Po1 and Pi3 = Po2 , so quantities above cancel,we get Po3 /Pi1, which is efficiency of the entire system.In general, for the cascaded system of Fig

EfficiencyExample Find the overall efficiency of the system of Fig. 4.19 if 1 = 90%, 2 = 85%, and 3 = 95%. Later, if the efficiency 1 drops to 40%, find the new overall efficiency and compare the result. -------- Solution:

The total efficiency of a cascaded system is therefore determined primarily by lowest efficiency (weakest link)
