Transient Behavior and Initial Conditions

The document discusses initial conditions in electric circuits. When a switch is closed at time t=0, the initial conditions describe the behavior of elements like resistors, inductors, and capacitors immediately after. Resistors allow current to flow normally. Inductors act as open circuits, while capacitors act as short circuits at t=0+. The initial conditions are used to determine constants in differential equations describing the circuit.

Transient behavior and Initial Conditions

1.0.1 Introduction:
Most of the transmission lines, electrical circuits and communication networks are made up of network
elements like resistor R, inductor L, and Capacitor C. These networks are connected by voltage and current
sources. It is most useful to understand the behavior of the network when we switched on the network by
supplying voltage source. It is most important to determine the transient response of R-L, R-C, R-L-C
series circuits for d.c and a.c excitations.
Assuming that at reference time t = 0, the switch in the circuit is closed and also assuming that switch
act in zero time. To differentiate between the time immediately before and immediately after the operation
of a switch, is represented as t = 0− and t = 0+ signs are used. The condition existing just before the switch
is operated will be designated as i(0− ), v(0− ), q(0− ) and the conditions existing after closing of a switch is
designated as as i(0+ ),v(0+ ), q(0+ ). Also initial conditions of a network depend on the past history of the
network prior the closing of the network at t = 0− and the network structure at t = 0+ , after switching.
The evaluation of voltages and currents and their derivatives at t = 0+, are known as initial conditions
and evaluation of condition at t = ∞ are known as final conditions.

The following are the objectives of studying the behavior of the circuit for Initial-Conditions:

• The most important reason is that the initial and final conditions must be known to evaluate the
arbitrary constants that appear in the general solution of a differential equation.

• The initial conditions give knowledge of the behavior of the circuit elements at the instant of switching

• The final conditions give knowledge of the behavior of the circuit elements after the settling of circuit
at t = ∞

Procedure for Evaluating Initial Conditions:


1. Before closing or opening the switch at t=0- find the history of the network, at t=0- find i(0-), v(0-),
i.e., current through inductor and voltage across the capacitor before switching

2. Draw the circuit after switching operation at t=0+.

3. Replace inductor with open circuit or by current source having source

4. Replace capacitor with short circuit or with a voltage source vc = c if it has an initial charge q0 .

5. Find i(0+), and v(0+) at t=0+
