Three phase example








Problem 9.29 AC Steady State

You can also do this problem using phasers (magnitude and phase)

iPad return on Friday after the Final Exam

Please be sure to bring the USD iPad and power cord (and whatever else they issued to you) on Friday. A representative of the USD IT department will be in class toward the end of the final exam period to collect the iPads.

I'll send out another reminder this evening.

You will be asked to solve problems in:

  • Ideal Transformer - Study the transformer presentation
  • Complex Power - know what apparent power, real power, and reactive power are. Be sure that you know the I and V equations to arrive at the apparent power, real power, and reactive power. know how to correct for power factor.
  • Steady-state AC circuit analysis using impedances.
  • Second order circuits.
  • A simple three phase problem
