Introductión
A damped oscillator by itself will stop oscillating at some point due to friction, but we can
maintain a constant amplitude by applying a force that varies with time in a periodic way at
a defined frequency. An everyday example is a swing, which we can maintain with
constant amplitude just by giving it a few nudges once each cycle. The resulting
movement is called a forced oscillation. If the external excitation is suppressed, the system
will oscillate with its natural frequency. If the driving force is applied with a frequency close
to the natural one, the amplitude of oscillation is maximum. Likewise, if the applied
frequency coincides with the natural one, the speed amplitude becomes maximum. This
phenomenon is called resonance.
In this project the response of a series RlC circuit will be studied.
Abstract
The experience focuses on studying the current response of an RLC circuit
series before a disturbance with variable frequency, around the frequency of
resonance defined by the nominal inductance and capacitance values. TO
Then, following the tutorial for the use of MultisimLive, you should build a
series RLC circuit. The amplitudes of current and voltage will be measured in each of
The elements. The alternating current source will work as the external disturbance,
in which a voltage amplitude and a frequency close to that of
resonance. MultisimLive software allows student to view graph.
In the time domain of current, the voltage (depending on the element in which it is
you are measuring) and the phase shift between the sinusoidal current and voltage
signals.
Finally, the AC voltage source must be adjusted to different
frequencies both below and above the resonant frequency.
Also, it is recommended to repeat the experiments for different values of

resistors.
Problem Statement
A series RLC circuit is the perfect excuse to study forced oscillations.
As well as being the basis for numerous applications, from line filtration to
high voltage to oscillators for electronic circuits. The circuit is composed
of a resistor, a capacitor and an inductor. Where the last two elements are
mathematically modeled by derivatives with respect to time. In this project
proposes to couple the three elements in series and disturb them with an alternating
voltage,
to build a system analogous to a forced mechanical oscillator. The structure
mathematical differential equation describing the RLC oscillator is similar to
of the mechanical oscillator, except that the parameters R, L and C define the frequency of
system resonance and phase shift between applied voltage and current
measure. Therefore, what is the current response of the circuit according to the frequency
from external disturbance? When is this response maximum?.
Overall objective

Theoretical framework
A series RLC circuit is composed of a resistor (its symbol is and is denoted
with "R"), element that opposes the flow of charge; a capacitor (its symbol is
and is denoted by "C"), an element that stores charge and energy in the form of an electric
field; and an inductor (its symbols are and is denoted by "L"), an element that
also stores energy in the form of a magnetic field. The three elements are in a
configuration known as a series, that is, all the elements are in sequence and do not share
a single pair of nodes. Figure 1 shows a serial RLC circuit built from its symbols.

oscillator with an external disturbance F (t). In the case of the series RLC circuit, the
damping term depends on the resistor and the inductor; the term of the natural frequency
of the oscillator depends on the inductor and the capacitor; and the external disturbance
depends on the power supply V (t) = V_0 sin (ω_f t), where V_0 is the peak voltage and
ω_f the angular frequency.
A possible solution for equation (4) is presented in equation.

Then, depending on the values that ω_0 and β take, the transient could be:
overdamped ω 0> β , critically damped ω 0< β , underdamped ω 0=β .
Finally, the steady state term in equation (5) prevails over time and is the part of the
response that can be measured with an oscilloscope. Therefore, for short transients, the
answer in terms of the current can be approximated to equation
The phase ϕ and the current amplitude I_0 will depend on the RLC elements and the
frequency of the AC source. In a phasor diagram it is possible to represent the amplitude
and phase of the signal. Figures 3 (a) and 3 (b) show the amplitude V_0 of a voltage signal
V (t) and its phase ϕ at 0º, while in Figure 3 (a) the current of amplitude I_0 meets phase ϕ
at 45º indicating predominance of the capacitive component. In figure 3 (b) the amplitude
current I_0 has phase ϕ at -45º indicating predominance of the inductive component.

The phase ϕ can be determined from the resistor V_R, capacitor V_C, and inductor V_L
voltages as shown in equation (8).
