What is AC Circuit Analysis?

• AC circuit analysis uses complex numbers to find the forced response to a sinusoidal generator.

• AC circuit analysis is very similar to DC circuit analysis that we studied earlier in the course. DC Circuit Analysis AC Circuit Analysis

PhasorGiven an AC voltage 𝑣𝑣 𝑡𝑡 = 𝐴𝐴 cos 𝜔𝜔𝑡𝑡 + 𝜃𝜃 , define the phasor representing voltage 𝑣𝑣(𝑡𝑡) as the complex number𝑉𝑉 = 𝐴𝐴𝑒𝑒𝑗𝑗𝜃𝜃

where 𝑗𝑗 = −1and 𝜔𝜔 = 2𝜋𝜋𝑓𝑓 is the frequency in radians per second. The magnitude of the phasor 𝐴𝐴𝑒𝑒𝑗𝑗𝜃𝜃 is the amplitude of the cosine 𝐴𝐴 cos 𝜔𝜔𝑡𝑡 + 𝜃𝜃 .The angle of the phasor, 𝜃𝜃, is the phase angle of the cosine 𝐴𝐴 cos 𝜔𝜔𝑡𝑡 + 𝜃𝜃 .

It is sometimes convenient to visualize the phasor by drawing it on the complex plane.

The phasor 𝑉𝑉 = 𝐴𝐴𝑒𝑒𝑗𝑗𝜃𝜃 is an arrow of length A making an angle of 𝜃𝜃to the real axis.

It can be quite useful to draw phasors on the complex plane!

We can use angle notation:𝑉𝑉 = 𝐴𝐴∠𝜃𝜃Or exponential notation𝑉𝑉 = 𝐴𝐴𝑒𝑒𝑗𝑗𝜃𝜃

Rotating PhasorThe phasor representing AC voltage 𝑣𝑣 𝑡𝑡 = 𝐴𝐴 cos 𝜔𝜔𝑡𝑡 + 𝜃𝜃 is the complex number 𝑉𝑉 = 𝐴𝐴𝑒𝑒𝑗𝑗𝜃𝜃 .

It is sometimes convenient to visualize the relationship between two phasors by defining a rotating phasor as

𝑣𝑣𝑐𝑐 𝑡𝑡 = 𝑉𝑉𝑒𝑒𝑗𝑗𝜔𝜔𝜔𝜔

Hence𝑣𝑣𝑐𝑐 𝑡𝑡 = 𝐴𝐴𝑒𝑒𝑗𝑗𝜃𝜃𝑒𝑒𝑗𝑗𝜔𝜔𝜔𝜔 = 𝐴𝐴𝑒𝑒𝑗𝑗(𝜔𝜔𝜔𝜔+𝜃𝜃)

The AC voltage we started with is the real part of the rotating phasor.𝑣𝑣 𝑡𝑡 = Re 𝑣𝑣𝑐𝑐 𝑡𝑡 = Re 𝐴𝐴𝑒𝑒𝑗𝑗 𝜔𝜔𝜔𝜔+𝜃𝜃 = Re 𝐴𝐴cos 𝜔𝜔𝑡𝑡 + 𝜃𝜃 + j𝐴𝐴sin 𝜔𝜔𝑡𝑡 + 𝜃𝜃 = 𝐴𝐴cos(𝜔𝜔𝑡𝑡 + 𝜃𝜃)

Draw the rotating phasor on the complex plane at t=0.

Draw the rotating phasor on the complex plane as time advances:

𝐴𝐴𝑒𝑒𝑗𝑗(𝜔𝜔𝜔𝜔+𝜃𝜃)

Draw the rotating phasor at time 𝑡𝑡 > 0

𝑣𝑣𝑐𝑐 𝑡𝑡 = 𝐴𝐴𝑒𝑒𝑗𝑗(𝜔𝜔𝜔𝜔+𝜃𝜃)

This amounts to adding angle 𝜔𝜔𝑡𝑡 to the angle of phasor 𝐴𝐴𝑒𝑒𝑗𝑗𝜃𝜃.

As time increases, 𝜔𝜔𝑡𝑡 increases. We add a full 2𝜋𝜋radians of angle in one AC period 𝑇𝑇 = 1

Phasor• The phasor representing sinusoidal voltage 𝑣𝑣 𝑡𝑡 = 𝐴𝐴 cos 𝜔𝜔𝑡𝑡 + 𝜃𝜃 is the complex number 𝑉𝑉 = 𝐴𝐴𝑒𝑒𝑗𝑗𝜃𝜃

• The amplitude A of the cosine is the magnitude of the phasor: 𝐴𝐴 = 𝑉𝑉 = 𝐴𝐴𝑒𝑒𝑗𝑗𝜃𝜃

• The phase angle 𝜃𝜃 of the cosine is the angle of the complex number “phasor”.

• We can “recover” the cosine from the phasor by multiplying the phasor by 𝑒𝑒𝑗𝑗𝜔𝜔𝜔𝜔 and then using Euler’s Identity: 𝑒𝑒𝑗𝑗𝜙𝜙 = cos𝜙𝜙 + 𝑗𝑗 sin𝜙𝜙

𝑣𝑣 𝑡𝑡 = Re 𝑉𝑉𝑒𝑒𝑗𝑗𝜔𝜔𝜔𝜔 = Re 𝐴𝐴𝑒𝑒𝑗𝑗𝜃𝜃𝑒𝑒𝑗𝑗𝜔𝜔𝜔𝜔 = Re 𝐴𝐴𝑒𝑒𝑗𝑗(𝜔𝜔𝜔𝜔+𝜃𝜃)

𝑣𝑣 𝑡𝑡 = Re 𝐴𝐴 cos 𝜔𝜔𝑡𝑡 + 𝜃𝜃 + 𝑗𝑗 sin 𝜔𝜔𝑡𝑡 + 𝜃𝜃𝑣𝑣 𝑡𝑡 = Re 𝐴𝐴 cos 𝜔𝜔𝑡𝑡 + 𝜃𝜃 + 𝑗𝑗 𝐴𝐴sin 𝜔𝜔𝑡𝑡 + 𝜃𝜃𝑣𝑣 𝑡𝑡 = 𝐴𝐴 cos 𝜔𝜔𝑡𝑡 + 𝜃𝜃

• To recover the cosine from the phasor:• The amplitude A of the cosine is the magnitude of the phasor V • The phase angle 𝜃𝜃 of the cosine is the angle of the complex number

2.Find the cosine represented by phasor 𝑉𝑉2 = 5𝑒𝑒−𝑗𝑗𝜋𝜋6

Answer: 𝑣𝑣2 𝑡𝑡 = 5 cos 𝜔𝜔𝑡𝑡 − 𝜋𝜋6

3.Find the sum: 𝑣𝑣3 𝑡𝑡 = 𝑣𝑣1 𝑡𝑡 + 𝑣𝑣2 𝑡𝑡Using trig identities is the hard way: 𝑣𝑣3 𝑡𝑡 = 10 cos 𝜔𝜔𝑡𝑡 +

Try it!The easy way: 𝑉𝑉3 = 𝑉𝑉1 + 𝑉𝑉2 = 10𝑒𝑒𝑗𝑗

𝑉𝑉3 = 7.071 + 𝑗𝑗𝑗.071 + 4.330 − 𝑗𝑗2.5𝑉𝑉3 = 11.401 + 𝑗𝑗4.571Magnitude 11.4012 + 4.5712 = 12.283Angle tan𝜃𝜃 = 4.571

11.4𝑥1= 0.4049 so 𝜃𝜃 = 21.85 deg or 0.3814 rad

The phasor is𝑉𝑉3 = 12.283𝑒𝑒𝑗𝑗𝑥.3814

so the time function is𝑣𝑣3 𝑡𝑡 = 12.283 cos 𝜔𝜔𝑡𝑡 + 0.3814

Check the result by sketching the phasors on the complex plane:

𝑉𝑉1 = 10𝑒𝑒𝑗𝑗𝜋𝜋4 = 10 angle 45 degrees = 7.071+j7.071

𝑉𝑉2 = 5𝑒𝑒−𝑗𝑗𝜋𝜋6= 5 angle -30 degrees=4.330-j2.500

𝑉𝑉3 = 𝑉𝑉1 + 𝑉𝑉2

𝑉𝑉3 = 12.283𝑒𝑒𝑗𝑗21.85°= 12.283 angle 21.85 degrees

Drawing the phasors tip to tail in the complex plane shows that 12.283 angle 21.85 degrees is a reasonable answer.

Amplitude and RMS ValueSuppose an AC voltage is given by𝑣𝑣 𝑡𝑡 = 𝑉𝑉𝑚𝑚 cos 𝜔𝜔𝑡𝑡Then the amplitude of the voltage is 𝑉𝑉𝑚𝑚.

Phasors Relative to RMS ValueWe can write phasors “relative to amplitude” or we can write phasors “relative to RMS value”.𝑣𝑣 𝑡𝑡 = 𝑉𝑉𝑚𝑚 cos 𝜔𝜔𝑡𝑡

Phasors relative to amplitude: 𝑉𝑉 = 𝑉𝑉𝑚𝑚𝑒𝑒𝑗𝑗𝜃𝜃The magnitude of the phasor 𝑉𝑉 = 𝑉𝑉𝑚𝑚 is the amplitude of the cosine voltage 𝑉𝑉𝑚𝑚 cos 𝜔𝜔𝑡𝑡

Phasors relative to RMS value:𝑉𝑉 = 𝑉𝑉𝑟𝑟𝑚𝑚𝑟𝑟𝑒𝑒𝑗𝑗𝜃𝜃

The magnitude of the phasor 𝑉𝑉 = 𝑉𝑉𝑟𝑟𝑚𝑚𝑟𝑟 is the RMS value of the cosine voltage, so 𝑉𝑉𝑚𝑚 = 2𝑉𝑉𝑟𝑟𝑚𝑚𝑟𝑟 and the cosine is 𝑣𝑣 𝑡𝑡 = 2𝑉𝑉𝑟𝑟𝑚𝑚𝑟𝑟 cos 𝜔𝜔𝑡𝑡

Which should you use?

In the lecture notes I use phasors relative to amplitude.

However, sometimes phasors relative to RMS value is preferred.

Everybody knows that the AC line voltage is 110 volts.

Is this amplitude or RMS value?

Answer: in the power industry the custom is to use phasors relative to RMS value so 110 volts is the RMS value.

The amplitude is 𝑉𝑉𝑚𝑚 = 2𝑉𝑉𝑟𝑟𝑚𝑚𝑟𝑟 = 1.𝑗𝑗𝑗𝜋𝜋𝑗𝑗𝑗 = 155.5 volts.

Most “DVMs” or “digital voltmeters” read RMS values on the AC voltage setting.
