Lecture #1:

Basic Concepts

Date: February 2017


Lecturer: Nguyen Minh Y, Ph.D.
Philosophy lesson
“Some books are to be tasted, others to be swallowed, and some
few to be chewed and digested”
– Francis Bacon
“Most of your problem-solving problem is with mathematics
rather than your understanding of theory”
 Do not start working with the problem too soon.
 Think how you should solve it.

“Keep nearby all your basic mathematics, science, and


engineering textbook”

1.1 Introduction
 Electrical engineering
 Electric circuit theory is one of the most
important course for an electrical
engineering students
 Focusing on communicating or
transferring energy from one point to
another
 Definition:
 An electric circuit is an interconnection
of electrical elements.
 What is electrical elements?
 Goals
 Learn analytical techniques and
computer software for analyzing the
3 behavior of an electric circuit
1.2 System of Units
 International System of Units (ISU)
 All measurements, parameter, etc. should be quantified in units

Six basic SI units and one derived unit relevant to this text
Quantity Basic unit Symbol
Length Meter m
Mass Kilogram kg
Time Second s
Electric current Ampere A
Thermodynamic temperature Kelvin K
Luminous intensity Candela cd
Charge Coulomb C

4 Department of Electrical Engineering taught in English 10/25/2019


1.3 Charge and Current
 Charge
 Charge is an electrical property of the atomic particles of which
matter consists, measured in Coulombs (C).

 Building block of atoms


 Charge e of electron
e = – 1.602 × 10-19 C (Coulomb)
 Proton carries a positive charge
+ 1.602 × 10-19 C (Coulomb)

 Number of electrons and proton appear to be equal, making an


atom neutrally charged.
5 Department of Electrical Engineering taught in English 10/25/2019
 Properties of electric charge
 The coulomb is a large unit for charges.
1 C = 1/ (1.602 × 10-19) = 6.24 × 1018 electrons
 In realistic or laboratory, charge is in order of pC, nC, or μC
 In nature, charge only occurred as integer multiplication of
electrons
n × (1.602 × 10-19) C
 n is integer number (0, 1, 2, …)
 Law of conservation of charge
 Charge can neither be created or destroyed, only transferred.
 Sum of the electric charges in a system does not change.

6 Department of Electrical Engineering taught in English 10/25/2019


 Current
 Electric current is the time rate of change of charge, measure in
ampere (A)

 Electric current
 Conducting wire is connected to a
battery
 Charges (positive and negative) are
compelled to move
 This movement creates electric current
dq
i
dt
1 ampere = 1 coulomb / second
t
Q   idt
t0

 Direct current
 A direct current (dc) is a current that remains constant with time

 Alternative current
 An alternative current (ac) is a current that varies sinusoidally
with time

 Problem
1. Determine the current flowing through an element if the charge
flow is given by
(a) q  t    3t  8  mC

(b) q  t    3e  t  5e 2t  nC

(c) q  t   10sin 120 t  pC

2. Determine the total charge transferred over the time interval of


0  t  10 s when i  t   1 t A

3. A lightning bolt with 10 kA strikes an object for 15 μs. How
much charge is deposited on the object?

9 Department of Electrical Engineering taught in English 10/25/2019


1.4 Voltage
 Voltage (or potential difference)
 Voltage or potential difference is the energy required to move an
unit charge through an element, measured in volts (V)

dw
vab 
dq

1 volt = 1 joule / coulomb


= 1 newton-meter / coulomb
 Properties
 Potential difference
vab = – vba

10 Department of Electrical Engineering taught in English 10/25/2019


1.5 Power and Energy
 Power
 Power is the time rate of expending or absorbing energy,
measured in watts (W)
dw
p
dt

 Proof:
p  v i
called instantaneous power.

11 Department of Electrical Engineering taught in English 10/25/2019


 Passive sign convention
 Passive sign convention is satisfied when the current enters
through the positive terminal of an element and p = +vi. If the
current enters through the negative terminal, p = – vi.

+ Power absorbed = – Power supplied

12 Department of Electrical Engineering taught in English 10/25/2019


 Law of conservation of energy
 Sum of power in a circuit, at any instant of time, must be zero:

p0
 Total power supplied to the circuit must be equal to the total
power absorbed.

 Energy
 Energy is the capacity to do work, measure in Joules (J)
 Energy absorbed or supplied by an element from time t0 to t is
t t
w   pdt   vidt
t0 t0

 1 Wh = 3,600 J
