Alternating current Definitions

Alternating current

Definition

Alternating current (AC) is an electric current which periodicallyreverses direction, in contrast to direct current (DC) which flows onlyin one direction.

Most often, the alternating current is sinusoidal :

i(t) = I0 cos(ωt +ϕ)

I I0 stands for amplitudeI ω represents angular frequency : ω = 2π · fI ϕ is called phase.

Alternating current

T = 2πω

Alternating voltage

Definition

Alternating voltage is a voltage which periodically reverses direction.

Most of the time, it is a sinusoid :

u(t) = U0 · cos(ωt +ψ)

T = 2πω

Some additional definitions

Period : the duration of time of one cycle in a repeating event.Unit : second (s).

Frequency : the number of occurrences of a repeating event per unitof time. Reciprocal of the period. Unit : Hertz (Hz

Root mean square values

Root mean square current

Equal to the direct current that would produce, for the same time, inthe same pure resistance, the same amount of heat.

Irms =I0√2

Root mean square voltage

Equal to the direct voltage that would produce, for the same time, inthe same pure resistance, the same amount of heat.

Urms =U0√

Alternating current Summation of signals

Summation of signals : ϕ1 , ϕ2

i1(t) = I1 · cos(ωt +ϕ1)

i2(t) = I2 · cos(ωt +ϕ2)

The sum is :

isum(t) = I1 · cos(ωt +ϕ1)+ I2 · cos(ωt +ϕ2)

The amplitude of the sum is not equal to the sumof the amplitude.

Summation of signals : ϕ1 , ϕ2

i1(t) = I1 · cos(ωt +ϕ1)

i2(t) = I2 · cos(ωt +ϕ2)

The sum is :

isum(t) = I1 · cos(ωt +ϕ1)+ I2 · cos(ωt +ϕ2)

The amplitude of the sum is not equal to the sumof the amplitude.

Summation of signals : ϕ1 = ϕ2Signals are in in phase

i1(t) = I1 · cos(ωt +ϕ) i2(t) = I2 · cos(ωt +ϕ)

itotale(t) = I1 · cos(ωt +ϕ)+ I2 · cos(ωt +ϕ) = (I1 + I2) · cos(ωt +ϕ)

In this only case, the amplitude of the sumis equal to the sum of the amplitude.

Summation of signals : ϕ1 = ϕ2Signals are in in phase

i1(t) = I1 · cos(ωt +ϕ) i2(t) = I2 · cos(ωt +ϕ)

itotale(t) = I1 · cos(ωt +ϕ)+ I2 · cos(ωt +ϕ) = (I1 + I2) · cos(ωt +ϕ)

i(t) isum

In this only case, the amplitude of the sumis equal to the sum of the amplitude.

Summation of signals : ϕ2 = ϕ1 +π and I1 = I2Signals are in phase opposition

i1(t) = I0 · cos(ωt +ϕ) i2(t) = I0 · cos(ωt +ϕ+π)

But cos(a +π) = −cos(a), therefore :

itotale(t) = I0 · cos(ωt +ϕ)+ I0 · cos(ωt +ϕ+π)

= I0 · {cos(ωt +ϕ)− cos(ωt +ϕ)}= 0

In this case, the amplitude of the sum is zero.Mathieu Bardoux (IUTLCO GTE) Electricity First year 11 / 34

Active power

Definition

Active power P = Average power consumed by the system during agiven period of time :

0p(t)dt =

0u(t)i(t)dt

If a component has pure real impedance, active power is equal toapparent power.The unit used for active power is W (watt).

Power Complex power

Apparent power

Definition

Apparent power S is the maximum value power can take for givenvoltage and current.It is equal to the magnitude of complex power.

Apparent power is noted S . This is also the nominal power specified onelectrical equipments.The unit for apparent power is V ·A (volt-ampere).

Power Complex power

Reactive power

Definition

Reactive power Q is the imaginary part of complex power.

A component with pure imaginary impedance dissipates zero activepower. In this case, reactive power is equal to apparent power.The unit for reactive power is var (volt-ampere reactive).

Power Complex power

AC power : summary

Apparent, active and reactive power are linked :

S2 = P2 +Q2

I Active power in WI Apparent power in V ·AI Reactive power in var

W, V ·A, var are all homogeneous to power, but their physical meaningis different.

Power Power factor

Power factor

Definition

Ratio of active power to apparent power in a circuit is called the powerfactor.

This is an intrisic caracteristic of the component.Calling ϕ the phase shift between U and I :

λ= cos(ϕ)

Power Boucherot’s method

Boucherot’s method

Boucherot’s theorem

If a circuit contains N components, each of which absorbs activepower Pi and reactive power Qi , then the total active/reactive andpowers are the sums of the active/reactive powers of the circuit:

Ptot =N∑i=1

Qtot =N∑i=1

Boucherot’s method

Corollary

Total apparent power is not equal to the sum of all apparent powers :

Stot ,N∑i=1

It can be determined through total active and reactive powers :

Stot =√P2tot +Q2
