~~283 Electrical Circuits<br />
No. <strong>of</strong> hours per week: three hours for two<br />

Prerequisites: EEI 88 Electronics, Circuits and<br />

Instruction: lecture/tutoriaVlaboratory<br />
Assessment: examination/assignment<br />
Subject aims<br />
The aim <strong>of</strong> this subject is to consolidate the circuit theory<br />
topics dealt with in previous subjects and to give students a<br />
firm foundation <strong>of</strong> circuit analysis techniques used in electrical<br />
engineering.<br />
Subject description<br />
Circuit eiements: review R, L and C as element showing<br />
relations between v and i for each, including response to<br />
sinusoid (complex numbers). Dependent sources. Non-linear<br />
elements in circuits.<br />
Circuit analysis: revision <strong>of</strong> SUPERPOSITION, THEVENIN, and<br />
NORTON (includes dependant sources). Tee-pi transformations.<br />
Formation <strong>of</strong> MESH and NODAL equations (dc and ac circuits)<br />
to the stage <strong>of</strong> writing equations in matrix form. lntroduction<br />
to maximum power transfer for dc and ac circuits. Locus<br />
diagrams.<br />
Three phase circuits: introduction to 3 phase voltage<br />
generation. Phasor diagrams. 3 phase connections and solution<br />
to problems. Power and power measurement. VAR correction.<br />
Mutual inductance: concepts <strong>of</strong> common flux, flux linkages<br />
and induced voltages. Treatment as a circuit element in mesh<br />
and nodal equations.<br />
Two port networks: parameters used for 2 port networks inc.<br />
Z, Y, cascade and hybrid, showina how the interconnection <strong>of</strong><br />
the networks will decide on whiFh parameters are to be used.<br />
Defining parameters and calculating their values.<br />
Non-sinusoidal waveforms: this topic examines the response <strong>of</strong><br />
linear networks to various periodic non-sinusoidal waveforms,<br />
and non-periodic inputs. The Fourier series and integral (Fourier<br />
Transform) is used as a tool for this analysis. The Fast Fourier<br />
Transform is also introduced.<br />
Electrical transients<br />
(a) Classical approach: the response <strong>of</strong> first order circuits (R-<br />
L & R-C) and second order circuits (RLC series or parallel)<br />
to step and sinusoidal excitations will be studied using the<br />
differential equation approach.<br />
(b) Laplace techniques: these techniques will be applied to<br />
more general circuits and excitations by transforming the<br />
circuit and writing circuit equations in terms <strong>of</strong> the Laplace<br />
operator 's' before inverting to the time domain.<br />
Frequency response, resonance, Bode plots, frequency domain,<br />
poles and zeros. Measurement <strong>of</strong> circuit parameters R L C,<br />
A.C. bridges. Accuracy, precision and sensitivity.<br />
