Introduction GITAM
Deemed to be University
• In electrical engineering, we are often interested in
transferring energy from one point to another point.
• To do this, we require interconnection of electrical devices and
such interconnection is known as electric circuit.
• Each component of the electric circuit is known as circuit
element.
• A circuit element is a mathematical representation of a simple
two terminal electrical device characterized by its specific
voltage current relationship. Examples: Resistors, Capacitors,
Inductors etc.

• The most basic quantity of electric circuit is electric charge. Charge
is the electrical property of atomic particles of which matter consists
measured in Coulombs.
• Some important characteristics of electric charge:
• Charge is bipolar and is described in either positive or negative
charges.
• The charge that occur in nature are integral multiples of electric
charge 𝑒 = −1.602 ∗ 10−19 coulombs.
• Law of conservation of charge states that charge can neither be
created nor destroyed, only transferred.

• The unique property of electric charge is that it can be transferred from
one place to another, that means it is mobile in nature.
• Charge in motion represents current.
• The convention is to take the current flow as the movement of positive
charges. That is, opposite to the flow of negative charges.

8
Current GITAM
Deemed to be University

• The electrical effects caused by charge in motion depends on


the rate of charge flow.
• The rate of charge flow is known as ‘electric current’.
• The mathematical relation between current, charge and time
𝑑𝑞
is 𝑖 = where i is current in Amps
𝑑𝑡
q is charge in Coulombs
t is time in seconds
1 Amp = 1 coulomb/Second

• Charge transferred between time to and t is

𝑞= ‫𝑖 𝑡׬‬ 𝑑𝑡

• Current ‘i’ need not be a constant value function.
• When a current is constant with time, that is direct current (dc). Thus, a
direct current (dc) is a current that remains constant with time.
• A current that varies with time, reversing direction periodically, is called
alternating current (ac).
• Thus, an alternating current (ac) is current that varies with time
periodically. ac is used in our household to run Fans, bulbs, refrigerators,
TV’s, air conditioners, water heaters and other electrical appliances.

Voltage GITAM
Deemed to be University

• To move an electron in a conductor in a particular direction requires some


work or energy transfer.
• Work done in moving unit charge in electric field is stored in it in the form
of electric potential known as potential difference or voltage.
• Thus the voltage V12 between two points 1 and 2 in an electric circuit is
the energy or work needed to move a unit charge from 1 to 2.
𝑑𝑤
• The voltage 𝑣 = 𝑉12 =
𝑑𝑞
𝑤 𝑖𝑠 𝑒𝑛𝑒𝑟𝑔𝑦 𝑖𝑛 𝑗𝑜𝑢𝑙𝑒𝑠
𝑞 𝑖𝑠 𝑐ℎ𝑎𝑟𝑔𝑒 𝑖𝑛 𝑐𝑜𝑢𝑙𝑢𝑚𝑠
𝑣 = 𝑉12 𝑖𝑠 𝑡ℎ𝑒 𝑣𝑜𝑙𝑡𝑎𝑔𝑒 𝑖𝑛 𝑣𝑜𝑙𝑡𝑠
1 volt = 1 joule / 1 Coulomb

16
Voltage GITAM

• Voltage has polarity. Plus ‘+’ and minus ‘-’ are used to represent
reference direction or voltage polarity.

• The Voltage V12 can be interpreted as:


a) Point 1 is at a potential of V12 volts higher than point 2.
Or
b) potential at point 1 with respect to point 2 is V12 volts.
• There fore logically it follows that V12 = - V21

• Power is the time rate of expending or absorbing energy.


• Power is measured in watts (W).
𝑑𝑤
• Power 𝑝 = where p is the power in Watts
𝑑𝑡
w is the energy in Joules
and t is the time in seconds.
1 Watt = 1 Joule/ 1 second
𝑑𝑤 𝑑𝑤 𝑑𝑞
• 𝑝= = ∗ =𝑣 ∗𝑖

• Thus power associated with a basic circuit element is the product
of the current in the element and the voltage across it.

18
Power and Energy GITAM
Deemed to be University

• If the power has + sign, power is delivered to or absorbed by the element.


• On the other hand, if the power has – sign, power is being supplied or delivered by
the element.
• Polarity of voltage and direction of current play major role in determining the sign
of power.

19
Power and Energy GITAM
Deemed to be University

• According to Passive sign convention:


power absorbed by an element is positive, when current
enters through its + terminal.
i.e. p is +ve.
power absorbed by an element is negative when current
enters through its –ve terminal.
i.e. p is –ve.
In general Power absorbed = – Power delivered.

• Ohm’s law states that the voltage ‘v’ across an element is directly
proportional to the current ‘i’ flowing through it. i.e. v ∝ i or v=R i.
where R is a proportionality constant known as resistance.
• Resistance is the property of the material to restrict the flow of
current. It depends on type of material and its dimensions.
• This property is used in many applications such as heaters, irons,
toasters and electric stoves.
• In the process of flow of electrons through a material, they loose
some of their energy due to the resistive property of materials,
resulting in heat generation.

➢Kirchhoff’s Voltage law (KVL)

51
GITAM
Deemed to be University

• Kirchhoff’s current law (KCL) is based on law of conservation of charge.


• Kirchhoff’s current law (KCL) states that the algebraic sum of currents
entering a node is zero.
• Mathematically KCL can be written as σ𝑁 𝑘=1 𝑖𝑘 = 0,
where N is the number of branches connected to the node k,
ik is the kth current entering or leaving the node.
• While writing KCL currents entering are taken +ve and
leaving –ve.
𝑖1 + −𝑖2 + 𝑖3 + 𝑖4 + −𝑖5 = 0
𝑖1 + 𝑖3 + 𝑖4 = 𝑖2 + 𝑖5
Thus the sum of currents entering a node is equal to sum of
currents leaving the node

• While writing KVL, we encounter various voltages in the loop.


Some of them carry positive sign and other carry negative sign
in the algebraic sum.
• While writing KVL, we can start with any branch and go
around the loop in either clockwise or counter clockwise.
• The elements that are encountered first with +ve terminal are
taken positive voltage and –ve terminal are taken –ve voltage
in algebraic sum.

Statement:

• Thevenin’s theorem states that any two terminal linear network having a number
of voltage current sources and resistances can be replaced by a simple equivalent
circuit consisting of a single voltage source in series with a resistance.
• The value of the voltage source is equal to the open-circuit voltage across the
two terminals of the network,
• Resistance is equal to the equivalent resistance measured between the terminals
with all the energy sources are replaced by their internal resistances.

Department of EECE, GIT Course Code and Course Title:19EEE131- BEEE 83


Explanation of Thevenin’s Theorem
Let us consider a simple DC circuit as shown in the
figure above, where we have to find the load

In order to find the equivalent voltage source, rL is
removed from the circuit as shown in the figure
below and Voc or VTH is calculated.

• Now, to find the internal resistance of the network (Thevenin’s
resistance or equivalent resistance) in series with the open-
circuit voltage VOC , also known as Thevenin’s voltage VTH, the
voltage source is removed or we can say it is deactivated by a
short circuit

85
Equivalent Thevenin’s circuit
• As per Thevenin’s Statement, the load current is determined by
the circuit shown above and the equivalent Thevenin’s circuit is
obtained.
The load current IL is given as:
Where,
VTH is the Thevenin’s equivalent voltage. It is an
open circuit voltage across the terminal AB known
as load terminal
RTH is the Thevenin’s equivalent resistance, as
seen from the load terminals where all the sources
are replaced by their internal impedance
