EEE-167 (IPE) Basic Electrical and Electronic Circuits AC Power Analysis Course Instructor: Shahed Ahmed Lecturer, Department of EEE, BUET Instantaneous Power Instantaneous power is the power at any instant of time. Unit : Watts Instantaneous Power Part-1 : time independent Part-2 : time dependent Average Power Average power is the average of the instantaneous power over one period T. Unit : Watts Average Power calculation from phasors Considering phasor voltage & current: We recognize the following relationship: Average Power calculation for special cases Case-1: What type of circuit element does this imply? Case-2: What type of circuit element does this imply? Exercise Problems 1) A current flows through an impedance average power delivered to the impedance. 2) Find the average power supplied by the source and the same absorbed by the resistor. . Find the Maximum Average Power Transfer Maximum Average Power Transfer Maximum Average Power Transfer After performing optimization: Exercise Problem Determine the value of 𝑍𝐿 that maximizes the power drawn from the source. Also find the maximum power.
