1 00:00:00,920 --> 00:00:05,595 >> In this video, we're going to demonstrate how phasor diagrams 2 00:00:05,595 --> 00:00:09,360 or showing the phasors in the complex plane can 3 00:00:09,360 --> 00:00:12,765 demonstrate the relative phases 4 00:00:12,765 --> 00:00:17,370 and magnitudes of voltages and currents within a circuit. 5 00:00:17,370 --> 00:00:20,650 To do this, we're going to remind ourselves that 6 00:00:20,650 --> 00:00:27,125 phasor V is equal to the phasor I times the impedance. 7 00:00:27,125 --> 00:00:29,360 Now for example, in a resistor, 8 00:00:29,360 --> 00:00:33,605 the impedance is R and V then is simply 9 00:00:33,605 --> 00:00:37,980 equal to I times R. R is a real number. 10 00:00:37,980 --> 00:00:41,975 So there is no phase term associated with the impedance of a resistor, 11 00:00:41,975 --> 00:00:45,680 and we say that the voltage is in 12 00:00:45,680 --> 00:00:55,845 phase with the current in a resistor. 13 00:00:55,845 --> 00:01:05,220 So if we have just arbitrarily choose the current to have a zero phase angle, 14 00:01:06,860 --> 00:01:10,520 then the phasor voltage 15 00:01:10,520 --> 00:01:12,440 associated with the resistor or the voltage 16 00:01:12,440 --> 00:01:14,885 across the resistor call it V sub r, 17 00:01:14,885 --> 00:01:18,069 will have the same angle as I, 18 00:01:18,069 --> 00:01:19,790 be in the same direction, 19 00:01:19,790 --> 00:01:24,875 but just have a different magnitude than I. 20 00:01:24,875 --> 00:01:30,990 In fact the magnitude of this will be R times I. All right. 21 00:01:30,990 --> 00:01:34,415 Unlike in a resistor, a capacitor introduces a phase difference, 22 00:01:34,415 --> 00:01:40,790 we know that V across the capacitor is equal to I times Z. 23 00:01:40,790 --> 00:01:44,620 Well, the impedance of a capacitor is one over 24 00:01:44,620 --> 00:01:49,400 j Omega c. We bring that j up in the numerator 25 00:01:49,400 --> 00:01:52,115 with a minus sign and we'll have then this is equal to 26 00:01:52,115 --> 00:01:58,320 I times a negative j over Omega c. Well, 27 00:01:58,320 --> 00:02:06,230 that negative j in rectangular coordinates is the same thing as 28 00:02:06,230 --> 00:02:10,430 a minus 90 degree phase term in polar coordinates 29 00:02:10,430 --> 00:02:14,570 or we have then that V is equal 30 00:02:14,570 --> 00:02:24,660 to I times one over Omega c times e to the minus j90. 31 00:02:24,970 --> 00:02:28,960 So whatever the phase of the current is, 32 00:02:28,960 --> 00:02:31,460 when we multiply the current times the impedance there is 33 00:02:31,460 --> 00:02:34,790 a negative 90 degree phase term that gets added to the current. 34 00:02:34,790 --> 00:02:41,750 So once again if we let the current have a zero reference angle, 35 00:02:41,750 --> 00:02:47,480 then the voltage in a capacitor is going to be 36 00:02:47,480 --> 00:02:51,620 90 degrees less than 37 00:02:51,620 --> 00:02:54,320 the phase of the current or we 38 00:02:54,320 --> 00:02:59,300 say the voltage is 90 degrees behind the current, 39 00:02:59,300 --> 00:03:03,985 or we can say the current is 90 degrees ahead of the voltage. 40 00:03:03,985 --> 00:03:07,625 Finally, we look at the voltage across the inductor, 41 00:03:07,625 --> 00:03:11,000 and we have phasor V. So that one, 42 00:03:11,000 --> 00:03:13,280 of course these are all phasor terms over here. 43 00:03:13,280 --> 00:03:19,250 Phasor V sub l is equal to I times Z. 44 00:03:19,250 --> 00:03:24,350 Well the Z the impedance of an inductor is j Omega L, 45 00:03:24,350 --> 00:03:31,620 which is equal to I times Omega L times j. 46 00:03:31,620 --> 00:03:38,970 Well, j is the same thing as e to the positive j90. 47 00:03:39,160 --> 00:03:41,300 So in an inductor 48 00:03:41,300 --> 00:03:45,430 the voltage will be 90 degrees ahead of the phase of the current. 49 00:03:45,430 --> 00:03:46,700 Whatever the phase of the current 50 00:03:46,700 --> 00:03:49,910 is and it gets multiplied by the impedance of the inductor, 51 00:03:49,910 --> 00:03:52,510 which has this positive 90 phase term with it, 52 00:03:52,510 --> 00:03:54,740 that positive 90 gets added to 53 00:03:54,740 --> 00:03:57,020 the phase of the current and the voltage will be 54 00:03:57,020 --> 00:04:01,790 90 degrees ahead of the current. 55 00:04:01,790 --> 00:04:06,320 So over here we had that being I once again we'll reference I, 56 00:04:06,320 --> 00:04:11,605 just arbitrarily choosing it to have a zero phase. 57 00:04:11,605 --> 00:04:18,709 I then V sub l will 58 00:04:18,709 --> 00:04:25,220 be 90 degrees ahead of phasor I. 59 00:04:25,220 --> 00:04:28,745 So we say that the current lags the voltage 60 00:04:28,745 --> 00:04:33,590 in an inductor or the voltage leads the current in an inductor. 61 00:04:33,590 --> 00:04:37,610 Notice the voltages of the capacitor and 62 00:04:37,610 --> 00:04:42,080 the inductor are 180 degrees out of phase with each other. 63 00:04:42,080 --> 00:04:44,915 The voltage and the current in the voltage 64 00:04:44,915 --> 00:04:48,170 of the capacitor lags by 90 degrees, 65 00:04:48,170 --> 00:04:52,645 the voltage in the inductor leads the current by 90 degrees. 66 00:04:52,645 --> 00:04:55,410 There's a mnemonic that goes along with this, 67 00:04:55,410 --> 00:04:59,870 today's clear back to the late 1800s when much of electrical work that was 68 00:04:59,870 --> 00:05:05,050 being done was associated with refrigeration and creating ice, 69 00:05:05,050 --> 00:05:12,730 and the mnemonic is ELI, the ICE man. 70 00:05:12,970 --> 00:05:16,895 What this is suggesting is that E 71 00:05:16,895 --> 00:05:20,620 represents voltage as in physics we talk about the EMF. 72 00:05:20,620 --> 00:05:22,105 So E is voltage, 73 00:05:22,105 --> 00:05:25,015 I is current, L is an inductor. 74 00:05:25,015 --> 00:05:27,145 So in an inductor, 75 00:05:27,145 --> 00:05:33,905 the voltage leads the current by 90 degrees. 76 00:05:33,905 --> 00:05:40,010 In an inductor, the voltage leads the current by 90 degrees. 77 00:05:40,010 --> 00:05:47,720 In a capacitor, the current leads the voltage by 90 degrees. 78 00:05:47,720 --> 00:05:49,755 So in the capacitor c, 79 00:05:49,755 --> 00:05:51,750 the current is 90 degrees ahead. 80 00:05:51,750 --> 00:05:53,550 So as in the word ICE, 81 00:05:53,550 --> 00:05:59,370 I comes ahead of E. So I is leading the voltage over here. 82 00:05:59,370 --> 00:06:03,840 In ELI, the voltage is leading the current. 83 00:06:05,860 --> 00:06:09,860 Now let's demonstrate how these phasor diagrams can be 84 00:06:09,860 --> 00:06:13,100 used to demonstrate the various or 85 00:06:13,100 --> 00:06:19,850 the relative phasors of different voltages and currents within a circuit. 86 00:06:19,850 --> 00:06:24,770 Here we have a single loop circuit and writing one KVL, 87 00:06:24,770 --> 00:06:32,130 we know then that phasor V sub s is equal to. 88 00:06:33,470 --> 00:06:39,650 Well, first of all V sub s sum of the voltage is equal to V sub r, 89 00:06:39,650 --> 00:06:41,480 plus V sub c, 90 00:06:41,480 --> 00:06:48,830 plus V sub l and of course these are all phasor voltages. 91 00:06:48,830 --> 00:06:53,150 Now let's go ahead and put in that V sub r is equal 92 00:06:53,150 --> 00:06:58,295 to I times R. In this case, 93 00:06:58,295 --> 00:07:00,900 R is eight ohms 94 00:07:02,030 --> 00:07:07,340 plus the voltage across the capacitor is just going to be I times Z sub c, 95 00:07:07,340 --> 00:07:14,160 which is I times a negative j8 plus the voltage across the inductor. 96 00:07:14,160 --> 00:07:16,070 That's a J2 ohm inductor. 97 00:07:16,070 --> 00:07:22,185 So the voltage across that will be I times J2. 98 00:07:22,185 --> 00:07:25,010 So we have three terms here. 99 00:07:25,010 --> 00:07:27,800 Three different phasors. 100 00:07:27,800 --> 00:07:30,830 These are phasor voltage is equal to 8I, 101 00:07:30,830 --> 00:07:35,580 minus J8I, and positive J2I. 102 00:07:36,670 --> 00:07:40,180 Showing this explicitly with the phases, 103 00:07:40,180 --> 00:07:42,860 this will be I times eight. 104 00:07:42,860 --> 00:07:45,140 There is no phase difference between the voltage 105 00:07:45,140 --> 00:07:48,260 across the resistor and the current. 106 00:07:48,260 --> 00:07:53,600 On the other hand we have I times eight 107 00:07:53,600 --> 00:07:58,770 times e to the minus j90 in the capacitor, 108 00:07:58,770 --> 00:08:09,730 plus I times two times e to the positive j90 for the inductor. 109 00:08:09,730 --> 00:08:12,555 So again, what this is saying is that 110 00:08:12,555 --> 00:08:20,540 the phase of the voltage 111 00:08:20,540 --> 00:08:25,640 across the inductor is 90 degrees greater than the phase of the current. 112 00:08:25,640 --> 00:08:30,590 On the other hand, the phase of the voltage across 113 00:08:30,590 --> 00:08:36,049 the capacitor is 90 degrees behind the phase of the current. 114 00:08:36,049 --> 00:08:42,110 So let's just start out and say that this is the current. 115 00:08:42,110 --> 00:08:45,620 I will say that it has a magnitude I naught. 116 00:08:45,620 --> 00:08:51,574 The voltage across the resistor is eight times that 117 00:08:51,574 --> 00:08:58,670 or V sub r is equal to eight times I naught in length, 118 00:08:58,670 --> 00:09:03,110 and it has the same angle as I. 119 00:09:03,110 --> 00:09:09,650 The capacitor on the other hand is 90 degrees behind the current. 120 00:09:09,650 --> 00:09:14,059 So the voltage V sub c is 90 degrees 121 00:09:14,059 --> 00:09:20,775 behind the current V sub c, 122 00:09:20,775 --> 00:09:29,570 and it's down here at negative 8I naught, and the voltage. 123 00:09:29,570 --> 00:09:31,835 Let's see that's the voltage of the capacitor, 124 00:09:31,835 --> 00:09:40,560 and the voltage of the inductor is 90 degrees ahead of V sub l, 125 00:09:42,080 --> 00:09:48,230 the length of it is equal to two times 126 00:09:48,230 --> 00:09:53,930 I naught and it is at an angle of 90 degrees ahead of the current. 127 00:09:53,930 --> 00:09:56,035 So our three voltages. 128 00:09:56,035 --> 00:09:59,645 The voltage across the resistor is in phase with the current, 129 00:09:59,645 --> 00:10:02,990 capacitor is 90 degrees behind the current and 130 00:10:02,990 --> 00:10:06,380 the inductor voltage is 90 degrees ahead. 131 00:10:06,380 --> 00:10:08,785 Now we have here that V sub s, 132 00:10:08,785 --> 00:10:12,980 the source voltage is equal to the sum of those three terms. 133 00:10:12,980 --> 00:10:14,870 So when adding phasors, 134 00:10:14,870 --> 00:10:17,660 you do it just like you do vectors and that is tip to tell them. 135 00:10:17,660 --> 00:10:22,280 Here's V sub r, add in V sub c, 136 00:10:22,280 --> 00:10:29,590 that comes down here like that and then add in V sub l. That 137 00:10:29,590 --> 00:10:37,909 brings us back two units back that way to this point here at negative 6I0, 138 00:10:38,080 --> 00:10:43,555 and so we end up at that point and that is V sub s then. 139 00:10:43,555 --> 00:10:46,360 Let see how good of a job I can do drawing a vector down, 140 00:10:46,360 --> 00:10:48,160 they're not very good. 141 00:10:48,160 --> 00:10:51,200 That's a straight line vector. 142 00:10:51,870 --> 00:10:55,165 That's better I guess. 143 00:10:55,165 --> 00:11:01,905 So V sub s then is equal to V sub r, 144 00:11:01,905 --> 00:11:03,480 plus V sub c, plus 145 00:11:03,480 --> 00:11:09,795 V sub l. This results in phasor is V sub s. What does it tell us? 146 00:11:09,795 --> 00:11:13,910 Well, it tells us that V sub s is something 147 00:11:13,910 --> 00:11:18,920 less than 90 degrees behind the current or that 148 00:11:18,920 --> 00:11:22,310 the current in this circuit I is leading 149 00:11:22,310 --> 00:11:28,790 the voltage source by some angle less than 90 degrees. 150 00:11:28,790 --> 00:11:37,050 It also tells us the relative length of this voltage is longer than V sub r, 151 00:11:37,060 --> 00:11:47,230 it's shorter than V sub c because V sub c and V sub l are opposites. 152 00:11:49,610 --> 00:11:54,570 I guess to be more accurate if you to say that V sub c and 153 00:11:54,570 --> 00:11:59,465 V sub l are in opposite directions and they tend to cancel each other. 154 00:11:59,465 --> 00:12:01,910 Let me say that one more time just a little bit 155 00:12:01,910 --> 00:12:04,295 differently and see if I can make it a little more clear. 156 00:12:04,295 --> 00:12:07,790 V sub s the source voltage is equal to 157 00:12:07,790 --> 00:12:11,400 the phasor sum of V sub l, plus V sub r, 158 00:12:11,400 --> 00:12:16,500 plus V sub c. By diagramming or drawing in V sub l, 159 00:12:16,500 --> 00:12:19,665 V sub r and V sub c and then adding them tip to tail, 160 00:12:19,665 --> 00:12:23,600 we can see the relative length and phase 161 00:12:23,600 --> 00:12:27,740 of the source to the voltage across the resistor, 162 00:12:27,740 --> 00:12:29,705 which is in phase with the current. 163 00:12:29,705 --> 00:12:33,340 The relative length and 164 00:12:33,340 --> 00:12:36,980 the relative angle of the source relative to the voltage across 165 00:12:36,980 --> 00:12:40,370 the inductor and the relative length and 166 00:12:40,370 --> 00:12:46,720 relative phase of the source relative to the voltage across the capacitor. 167 00:12:46,720 --> 00:12:48,980 Again, this doesn't give us a real accurate, 168 00:12:48,980 --> 00:12:52,640 but it does give us some feel for the relative phases, 169 00:12:52,640 --> 00:12:55,520 the phases of one of each of 170 00:12:55,520 --> 00:12:59,880 these voltages relative to the current and relative to the source.
