stevenal, agreed with your calculation that the PF of this circuit is .707 so. at the transformer's secondary side the power delivered to the circuit will be Irms.Vrmsx(.707) Now what will be the exact tranformer's rating: Is it the product of Irms.Vrms Or the real power it delivers Irms.Vrmsx(.707)

JBinCA, Thanks for the detailed explaination. I still have one point is not clear.If the load is pure resistive,that means that the current and voltage are in phase and the power consumed by the load is real power,so if we calculate the power at the load should equal the power deliverd by the...

Actually, I did two calculations: one at the load and the other at the transformer secondary. The two calculations give different results. No measurments are taken- Just mathematical calculations and neglect any losses.

This ciruit is very simple : single phase transformer , its secondery is connected in series with a single diode and resistive load( simple half-wave rectifier) The DC power Wdc = Idc x Vdc -- average values of the rectified voltage and current. If you calculate the transformer's secondary VA...

We can use the following formulas for the instanious current and voltage: (Esin x /R) and (Esin x) ,multiply them together and ,make the integral over one period cycle and devide over the period cycle and that would be the wattmeter reading( the mean value of the product of current and voltage)...

A single phase transformer is feeding a half-wave rctifier with a resistive load across it. What is the real value of the power cosumed in the resistor load( dc + ripples ),is it to : - Multiply transformer's secondary rms values of the voltage and current- assume 100% efficiency. -Or to mutiply...

So,I understand that my equation should be corrected to: Power=(Vdc+Vac_rms)'2/R And the superposition theorem does not apply for power. Is that what you mean ?

Thx for reply Is that mean to measure the power by DVM we have to make 2 measurments across the resisor : Vdc and Vac ,and then the power will be: (Vdc'2 + Vac'2)/R Regards

A 10 amp DC current is passing through 1 Ohm resistive load, so the power consumption by the resistor is 100 Watt. Now, a sinusoidal ripple current of 1 amp peak is superimposed on the top of the DC current, then the average current is still 10 amp. My question now : Is the resistor still...

Sorry for the delay.I noticed that during the spin cycle the"BRAKE/CLUCH" solenoid is energized and pulling the arm of brake and preventing the motor from spinning. Now I disconected one of the wires going to "BRAKE/CLUTCH" solenoid and now it is de-energized and the machine spins BUT AT LOW...

I have the Motorola programming board MC68HC05PGMR-2 but without the software needed to operate it. Any one can direct me to a website to download the software needed for that programmer ?

well itsmoked,so could you please how that cluch/brake works ? is it mechanical system ?

Thanks for your great help. Also I noticed in the machine schematic a coil named " BRAKE/CLUTCH" what that coil for ?

Please, could some one explain how the Wash Machine's AC Motor ( with capacitor on it )speed and direction controlled ? During the wash cycle, the motor rotates back an forth at low speed, while at spin cycle rotates at very high speed. My question is how during the wash cycle the motor's speed...

Thanks nbucka, so if we are going to wind bifiller centre tap secondary winding of a transformer, we can start with the centre tap and continue till we end up with two terminals. one will pass the centre tap ( N+.1} and the other terminal will end just before the centre tap (N-.1}. Can we call...
