REVIEW OF BASIC ELECTRICAL ENGINEERING


Network elements may be classified into four groups.
i) Active or passive
ii) Unilateral or bilateral
iii) Linear or nonlinear
iv) Lumped or distributed

ACTIVE & PASSIVE ELEMENT


Active Element: An active element is capable of delivering an average power greater than zero to some
external device over an infinite time interval. For example, ideal independent voltage or current sources are
active elements. (An element which is capable of increasing the level of signal energy is called active element;
hence transistor, FET, OP-Amps are also treated as active element)
Passive Element: A passive element cannot supply average power that is greater than zero over an infinite
time interval. Resistors, capacitors and inductors fall into this category.

BILATERAL & UNILATERAL ELEMENT


Bilateral element: In the bilateral element, the voltage-current relation is the same for current flowing in either
direction. Eg:- Resistance, inductance & capacitance.
Unilateral element: A unilateral element has different relations between voltage and current for the two
possible directions of current. Eg:- Diode.

LINEAR & NON-LINEAR ELEMENT


Linear element: An element is linear if its parameter (R, L or C) does not change with change in applied
voltage or current. A linear element is one which satisfies the principle of superposition, i.e., the principle of
homogeneity and additivity. In a linear element, the current and voltage relationships is represented by a linear
equation either algebraic, differential or integral type.
Nonlinear element: An element is non-linear if it parameter (R, L or C) change with change in voltage or
current. It does not satisfy the principle of superposition. Eg:- thermistor (temperature dependent resistor),
LDR (light dependent resistor)

LUMPED & DISTRIBUTED ELEMENT


Lumped element: Lumped elements are those which for the purpose of analysis may be treated as physically
separate elements such as resistance, inductance and capacitance.
Distributed element: Distributed elements are those which are not separable for analysis purposes. For
example, resistance, inductance and capacitance of a transmission line are distributed along its length.

NETWORK & CIRCUIT


The interconnection of two or more circuit elements (resistor, inductor, capacitor, voltage source, current
source) connected in any manner is called a network.
If the network contains at least one closed path, it is called an electric circuit.
Every circuit is a network, but all networks are not circuits.

INDEPENDENT SOURCES
An ideal independent voltage/current source can deliver any amount of current for any duration at a specified
constant voltage.
Page 4 of 150
EET201 CN Lecture Notes by TG Sanish Kumar, EED, GEC Thrissur

Passive Element: Resistance cannot deliver energy; inductance and capacitance can deliver energy
temporarily; but not for indefinite time

DEPENDENT SOURCES
An ideal dependent source is an active element whose voltage or current is dependent on either the voltage or
current in another part of the circuit. There are 4 types of dependent sources.
i) Voltage controlled voltage source (VCVS)
ii) Current controlled voltage source (CCVS)
iii) Voltage controlled current source (VCCS)
iv) Current controlled current source (CCCS)

Here,  = voltage gain; r = trans-resistance; gm = transconductance;  = current gain

Node: A node is a junction where two or more network elements are connected together.
Branch: An element or number of elements connected between two nodes constitute a branch.
Loop: A loop is any closed part of the circuit.
Mesh: A mesh is the most elementary form of a loop and cannot be further divided into other loops.
All meshes are loops but all loops are not meshes.

KIRCHHOFF’S VOLTAGE LAW


The algebraic sum of voltages in any closed path in a circuit is zero at all instants of time.

KIRCHHOFF’S CURRENT LAW


The algebraic sum of currents leaving (or entering) a node in a circuit is zero at all instants of time.

Sign Convention
A rise in potential can be assumed to be positive while a fall in potential can be considered negative.
(The reverse is also possible and both conventions will give the same result).
i) If we go from the negative terminal of the battery to the positive terminal, there is rise in potential
and so the emf should be assigned a positive sign.
ii) When current flows through a resistor, there is a voltage drop across it. If we go through the
resistance in the same direction as the current, there is a fall in the potential and so the sign of this
voltage drop is assigned negative.

SOURCE TRANSFORMATION
Source transformation is the process of replacing a voltage source V s in series with a resistance R
by a current source Is in parallel with the same resistance R or vice versa.

Source transformation is a powerful tool that allows circuit manipulations to ease circuit analysis.
Note: The arrow of the current source is directed toward the positive terminal of the voltage source.
Source transformation also applies to dependent sources.

Use source transformation technique to find Vo.

SUPERPOSITION THEOREM
Voltage across (or current through) an element in a linear circuit is the algebraic sum of voltages
across (or currents through) that element due to each independent source acting alone when all
other independent sources are replaced by its internal resistance.

Note: Dependent sources are not to be treated as sources while applying superposition theorem.

Page 10 of 150
EET201 CN Lecture Notes by TG Sanish Kumar, EED, GEC Thrissur

Superposition theorem helps us to analyse a linear circuit with more than one independent source by calculating
the contribution of each independent source separately. However, to apply the superposition theorem, we must
keep two things in mind:
1. We consider one independent source at a time while all other independent sources are turned off. This
implies that we replace every voltage source by 0V (or a short circuit), and every current source by
0A (or an open circuit). This way we obtain a simpler circuit.
2. Dependent sources are left intact because they are controlled by circuit variables.

Note: Superposition is based on linearity. For this reason, it is not applicable to the effect on power due to each
source, because the power absorbed by a resistor depends on the square of the voltage or current.

Using Superposition Theorem, find V.

Ans: -

Case 1: Voltage source is acting alone


(Current source is replaced by open circuit)
V1 = 0.5V

Case 2: Current source is acting alone


(Voltage source is replaced by short circuit)
V2 = 0.5V

Voltage V = V1 + V2 = 0.5 + 0.5 = 1V

Using Superposition Theorem, find V.

Ans: -
Case 1: Voltage source 6V is acting alone (Voltage source 3V is replaced by short circuit)

Page 11 of 150
EET201 CN Lecture Notes by TG Sanish Kumar, EED, GEC Thrissur

V1 = +2V
Case 2: Voltage source 3V is acting alone (Voltage source 6V is replaced by short circuit)

V2 = -1V
Voltage V = V1 + V2 = +2 - 1 = 1V

THEVENIN’S THEOREM
At a pair of terminals AB, any linear bilateral network can be replaced by an equivalent circuit composed
of a voltage source VTH in series with a resistance RTH. The voltage VTH is the voltage across the open
circuited terminals AB and RTH is the equivalent resistance of the network as seen from terminals AB with
all independent sources replaced by their internal resistances.
Note: Internal resistance of an ideal voltage source is zero (short circuit) and ideal current source is infinity
(open circuit)

RECIPROCITY THEOREM
In a linear bilateral single source network, the ratio of excitation to response is a constant when position of
excitation and response are interchanged.

In any linear bilateral network, if a source of emf E located at one point produces a current I at a second
point, the same source of emf E at the second point will produce the same current I at the first point.

Emf E and current I are mutually interchangeable.

Note: Reciprocity theorem is not applicable to network with dependent sources.

According to Reciprocity theorem,

REVIEW OF 3-PHASE SYSTEMS


Any system with more than one phase is referred to as a polyphase system.
In a balanced 2-phase system, there are 2 equal driving voltages with a phase difference of 90˚ electrical.
In a symmetrical 3-phase system, the phase difference between the driving voltages is 120˚ electrical.
In an n-phase system (n > 2), the relative phase difference is 360˚/n.
A 3-phase generator has 3 independent armature windings (with same number of turns) which are 120˚ apart
in space and rotate in a uniform magnetic field.

Instantaneous values of voltages are given by,


e A  E m sin  t
e B  E m sin( t  120  )
ec  E m sin( t  240  )  E m sin( t  120 )
The order in which the voltage attain their peak values is called phase sequence. Here, abc is the phase
sequence. If the direction or rotation is reversed, the phase sequence is reversed and becomes acb.
Note: There are only 2 possible phase sequences – abc and acb.
Advantages of 3-phase system over 1-phase system:-
i) For same amount of power, 3-phase system is more economical (less amount of conductor material)
ii) 3-phase induction motors are self-starting; but 1-phase induction motor (with single winding) are not
iii) 3-phase machines are more efficient (for same output)
iv) 3-phase machines have lesser size (for same output)

Three possible configurations of connections of voltages sources are i) star and ii) delta.

Resonance in Series and Parallel RLC circuits – Quality factor – Bandwidth – Impedance Vs
Frequency, Admittance Vs Frequency, Phase angle Vs frequency for series resonant circuit.

RESONANCE
Resonance is a very important phenomenon in many electrical applications. The study of resonance is very
useful, particularly in the area of communications. A circuit containing reactance is said to be in resonance if
the voltage across the circuit is in phase with the current through it. At resonance, the circuit behaves as a
pure resistor and the net reactance is zero.

SERIES RESONANCE
Consider the series RLC circuit.
The impedance of the circuit is Z  R  j ( X L  X C )

At resonance, circuit is purely resistive.

3. Voltage across inductor VLo is equal to the voltage across capacitor VCo. Since Io is maximum, VLo
and VCo will be maximum. At resonance, voltage magnification takes place.
4. Behaviour of R, L and C with change in frequency

Page 65 of 150
EET201 CN Lecture Notes by TG Sanish Kumar, EED, GEC Thrissur

R remains constant with change in frequency. XL is proportional to frequency (straight line) and Xc
is inversely proportional to frequency (rectangular hyperbola).
When f  f o , impedance is capacitive and power factor is leading.
When f  f o , impedance is resistive and power factor is unity.
When f  f o , impedance is inductive and power factor is lagging.
Impedance Vs Frequency curve is shown below:

5. BAND WIDTH
For the series RLC circuit, bandwidth is defined as the range of frequencies for which the power
delivered to R is greater than or equal to Po/2 where Po is the power delivered to R at resonance.

There are two frequencies for which the power delivered to R is half the power at resonance. The
magnitude of the current at each half-power point is the same.

The ability of a circuit to select any particular frequency is decided by the sharpness of the resonant
circuit. A circuit with high Q (small R) has a narrow band width, a sharp response and high selectivity.

PHASE ANGLE Vs FREQUENCY CURVE


The phase angle as a function of frequency is shown in Figure.

At a frequency below the resonant frequency, current leads the source voltage because the capacitive reactance
is greater than the inductive reactance. The phase angle decreases as the frequency approaches the resonant
value, and is 0° at resonance.
At frequencies above resonance, the current lags behind the source voltage, because the inductive reactance is
greater than capacitive reactance. As the frequency goes higher, the phase angle approaches 90°.

Determine the resonant frequency of the circuit shown in figure.

REVIEW OF LAPLACE TRANSFORMS


The time domain network equations in the study of transients are differential equations. It is more convenient
to use Laplace transform for the solution of differential equations.
If f(t) is a function of t, defined for t > 0, the Laplace transform of f(t) written as L(f(t)) or F(s) is

L( f (t ))  F (s)   f (t )e st dt where s    j

TRANSIENT ANALYSIS
Whenever a network containing energy storage elements such as inductor or capacitor is switched from one
condition to another by changing the supply or any circuit element, the response current and voltage changes
from their initial values to new values. These changes take a short spell of time to settle to new steady state.
The time taken to change from an initial steady state to the final steady state is known as transient period and
response during this period is known as transient response.

MAGNETICALLY COUPLED CIRCUITS


DOT CONVENTION
When two coils are in a close proximity to each other, the magnetic flux caused by current in one coil links
with the other coil, thereby inducing voltage in the latter.
The mutual induced emf may be aiding or opposing the self-induced emf. Dot convention is used to determine
the polarity of mutual induced emf. By this convention, a dot is placed in the circuit at one end of each of the
two magnetically coupled coils to indicate the direction of the magnetic flux if current enters that dotted
terminal of the coil.
If both currents i1 and i2 enter (or leave) the dotted terminal, the sign of mutual induced emf will be same as
the sign of the self-induced emf. If one current enters the dotted terminal and the other leaves, the sign of the
mutual induced emf will be opposite to the sign of the self-induced emf.

Mutual inductance can not be greater than the geometric mean of the self-inductances of the coils.
M
Coefficient of coupling, k  ; 0  k 1
L1L2
The coefficient of coupling k is a measure of the magnetic coupling between two coils.
How to fix dots:
Connect an alternating source to any one winding and load to the second winding. Let us assume the
top end of source have the positive polarity. Dots are marked at the terminals having the same polarity.
Mark a dot at the top of coil 1 which has positive polarity. Now, we have to determine the terminal
of coil 2 having the positive polarity.
When current flows in coil 1, a flux 1 is created in the upward direction through core (direction of
flux is determined by right hand thumb rule). When this flux links the second coil, an emf and hence
a current flows. By Lenz’s law, this current will flow in a direction to oppose the original flux. Let 2
be the flux produced by current in coil 2. Flux 2 opposes the original flux 1. Applying right hand
thumb rule, the direction of current can be determined. Dot is fixed at the positive terminal which is
top of coil 2 in figure (a) and bottom of coil 2 in figure (b). Note the coils of second coil are wound
in opposite directions in figure (a) and figure (b).

Obtain the dotted equivalent circuit for the coupled circuit and hence determine the equivalent inductance
between A and B. Given L1 = 1H, L2 = 2H, L3 = 5H, M12 = M21 = 0.5H; M23 = M32 = 1H, M13 = M31 = 1H.

To fix dots:

Page 105 of 150


EET201 CN Lecture Notes by TG Sanish Kumar, EED, GEC Thrissur

Connect coil 1 to a source and coils 2 and 3 to loads as shown. Let the left end of voltage source has positive
polarity at one instant. Hence left end of coil 1 is allotted a dot. Using right hand thumb rule, the direction of
flux 1 will be towards left. Then by Lenz’s law, direction of fluxes 2 and 3 will be opposite to 1. Again,
using the right-hand thumb rule, the direction of currents in coils 2 and 3 are obtained as shown. Mark dots at
positive ends of coils 2 and 3.
Dotted equivalent circuit is given below.

Equivalent inductance is
L  ( L1  M 12  M 13 )  ( L2  M 21  M 23 )  ( L3  M 31  M 32 )
 (1  0.5  1)  (2  0.5  1)  (5  1  1)  7H

Obtain the dotted equivalent circuit for the coupled circuit and hence determine the equivalent inductance
between A and B. All values are in ohms.

To fix dots:

Dotted equivalent circuit is

COEFFICIENT OF COUPLING
The amount of coupling between the inductively coupled coils is expressed in terms of the coefficient
M
of coupling, which is defined as K  . Coefficient of coupling is always less than unity and has a
L1 L2

Page 106 of 150


EET201 CN Lecture Notes by TG Sanish Kumar, EED, GEC Thrissur

maximum value of 1. The greater the coefficient of coupling between the two coils, the greater the mutual
inductance between them, and vice-versa.

LINEAR TRANSFORMER
A transformer is generally a four-terminal device comprising two (or more) magnetically coupled
coils. The coil that is directly connected to the voltage source is called the primary winding and the
coil connected to the load is called the secondary winding. The resistances R 1 and R2 are included to
account for the losses (power dissipation) in the coils.
The transformer is said to be linear if the coils are wound on a magnetically linear material – a material
for which the magnetic permeability is constant. Such materials include air, plastic, bakelite and
wood. A linear transformer is sometimes called air-cored transformer although not all of them are
necessarily air-core.

Module 5 Two port networks: Driving point and transfer functions – Z, Y, h and T parameters -
Conditions for symmetry & reciprocity – relationship between parameter sets – interconnections of
two port networks (series, parallel and cascade) –– T-π transformation.

TWO PORT NETWORKS


A pair of terminals through which a current can enter or leave a network is called a port.

A two port network is an electrical network with 2 separate ports for input and output.
Input port is connected to a voltage/current source. Output port is connected to a load or to another network or
to a voltmeter.

Examples of one-port and two-port networks are given below.

Assumption: Two port networks are composed of linear elements and contain no independent
sources. Dependents sources are permissible.
There are four variables V1, I1, V2 and I2 associated with a two port network. Two of these variables
can be expressed in terms of the other two variables. Thus there will be two dependent variables and
two independent variables.
Depending on the selection of independent variables, there are 6 combinations possible and hence 6
sets of parameters.

( I1 , I 2 )  f (V1 , V2 )  Y parameters

CONDITION FOR RECIPROCITY


A network is said to be reciprocal if the ratio of the response to the excitation is invariant to an
interchange of the positions of the excitation and response in the network.
(A two-port network is reciprocal if the interchange of an ideal voltage source at one port with an
ideal ammeter at the other port produces the same ammeter reading.)
