Inductance is the link between electric circuits and magnetic fields. Voltage and current sine waves are in-phase when they peak and cross the zero axis at the same time. However, this rarely happens ...

Power factor correction uses parallel connected capacitors to oppose the effects of inductive elements and reduce the phase shift between the voltage and current. Power factor correction is a ...

Previous tutorials have shown the properties and characteristics of simple resistor-only and inductor-only AC circuits. We will now investigate the effects of combining the two components together.

The program calculates the voltages, power, current, impedance and reactance for a series and parallel circuits of a resistor and a inductor.

Impedance (Z) is a measure of the opposition a circuit offers to the flow of alternating current (AC). It is a complex value composed of resistance (R), capacitance (C), and inductance (L) and is ...

Power factor is a crucial parameter in electrical engineering that determines the efficiency of power usage in an AC circuit. It defines the phase relationship between voltage and current waveforms ...

Last month, we clarified the definition of a vector and showed you how vectors are added, subtracted, multiplied, and divided. This month, we'll see how to use vectors in defining a complex circuit ...

Abstract: "Simulation-based Labs for Circuit Analysis" brings you an unparalleled learning experience, integrating cutting-edge simulation tools, Multisim Live and Tinkercad, to explore the realm of ...

Abstract: This article presents a highly integrated and compact hybrid wireless power transfer (WPT) system with asymmetrical printed-circuit-board (PCB) based self-resonators. The PCB-based ...
