Ideal and Practical Voltage Source Explained

The voltage source supplies current to the electrical circuit. When load is connected across the voltage source, the voltage source supplies current to the load.

Ideal Voltage Source

An ideal voltage source is capable to maintain the constant voltage across its terminals. The voltage across the voltage source terminals remains constant and the voltage is independent of the current. The symbol of voltage source is as given below.

The voltage across the terminals of an ideal voltage source remains constant and the voltage does not drop with increase in the circuit current. The voltage across an ideal voltage source with change in the circuit current is as depicted below.



The voltage of an ideal voltage source remains constant if there does not happen voltage drop across the internal resistance of the voltage source. The voltage source has certain resistance which cause voltage drop across the internal resistance. An ideal voltage source must have zero internal resistance. In this condition, the voltage across the load will be equal to the voltage across the terminals of the voltage source. 


Internal resistance of an Ideal Voltage  Source


An ideal voltage source is capable to maintain the constant voltage across its terminal from the no load to full load condition. An ideal source circcuit is as given below.



An ideal voltage source voltage across load(Vo) is equal to the voltage across the terminal voltage(Vt).











Thus the internal resistance of an ideal voltage source is zero. The source voltage is equal to the voltage across the load and no voltage drop takes place in the internal resistance because an ideal voltage source has zero internal resistance.


Practical Voltage Source


The internal resistance of an ideal voltage source is zero. However, practically the voltage source has some internal resistance. The symbol of the practical voltage source is as depicted below.



The internal resistance (r) of an ideal voltage source is zero. However, practically the voltage source has some internal resistance. The symbol of the practical voltage source is as depicted below.

The terminal voltage at the source when current is delivered to the load no more remains constant, and the voltage at the source terminal is somewhat less than the terminal voltage at no load condition. The practical voltage source at load condition is depicted as below.



The voltage across the load can be found by applying Kirchoff's volatge law (KVL). According to KVL, the algebric sum of the voltages in a loop  is equal to zero.

The voltage across the load can not be equal to the source voltage when current is delivered by the voltage source. The difference in the voltage across the load and the source voltage depends on the magnitude of the current flowing in the circuit. The voltage across the load is equal to the source voltage minus the voltage drop in internal resistance. The higher the circuit current, the more is the voltage drop in the internal resistanece and the voltage across load will get dropped accordingly. The same has been shown in the below graph.

Perhitungan & Cara Merubah Kumparan Blender Dari 220 V Menjadi 12 V

          Seperti yang telah dijelaskan pada buku “menggulung motor listrik arus bolak-balik, servis peralatan listrik rumah tangga kelompok penggerak dan perbaikan peralatan listrik pertukangan”, bahwa motor penggerak yang digunakan pada perlatan listrik rumah tangga dan pertukangan seperti blender, mixer, bor tembak, gerinda dsb menggunakan jenis motor universal. Motor universal adalah jenis motor listrik yang dapat disuplai dengan sumber listrik arus bolak-balik (AC) dan arus searah (DC). Jadi peralatan-peralatan listrik rumah tangga dan pertukangan tersebut yang biasanya kita suplai dengan sumber listrik AC dari PLN atau Genset sebesar 220 V sebenarnya dapat juga kita suplai dengan sumber listrik DC yang tentunya tegangan juga harus sama yakni 220 V.           Yang menjadi permasalahan bagaimana kalau peralatan listrik rumah tangga atau pertukangan tersebut, sebagai contoh misalkan blender yang ingin digunakan atau dioper...

BT-BASIC command line

8.8       At the BT-BASIC command line type the command  msi  and the directory path, then press the “ENTER” key on the keyboard.  Example:                   msi ‘/hp3070/boards/aspect/main’ 8.9       At the BT-BASIC command line type the command  get ‘testplan’ and press the   ENTER” key on the keyboard.  You should now see the body of the testplan file displayed in the work space of the BT-BASIC window. 8.10     Some of the most frequently used BT-BASIC commands used are:

Testhead

4.3         Testhead The testhead is that portion of the tester that supports the PIN, ASRU and Controller cards.   The testhead is divided into two BANKS and each BANK is divided into two MODULES, see figure 2 below.  Bank 1 contains modules 0 and 1, bank 2 contains modules 2 and 3.  The test fixtures are placed on the banks of the tester and locked down for board testing.  The testhead cards interface to the test fixture through the spring loaded pogo pin “nails” at the top edge on each of these card types. 4.4       Support Bay The support bay is a stand-alone cabinet that houses the power supplies for the Unit Under Test.  This bay also houses the test station power distribution unit and test station controller on earlier models. 4.5       Emergency Shutdown Switch The emergency shutdown switch is the large red button located at the lower left corne...

Kelebihan dan Kekurangan Saluran Listrik Jenis Saluran Udara dan Saluran Bawah Tanah

Berdasarkan pemasangannya,   saluran distribusi dibagi menjadi dua kategori, yaitu : saluran udara (overhead line) merupakan sistem penyaluran tenaga listrik melalui kawat penghantar yang ditompang pada tiang listrik. Sedangkan saluran bawah tanah (underground cable) merupakan sistem penyaluran tenaga listrik melalui kabel-kabel yang ditanamkan di dalam tanah. 1.    Saluran Bawah Tanah (Underground Lines) Saluran distribusi yang menyalurkan energi listrik melalui kabel yang ditanam didalam tanah. Kategori saluran distribusi seperti ini adalah yang favorite untuk pemasangan di dalam kota, karena berada didalam tanah, maka tidak mengganggu keindahan kota dan juga tidak mudah terjadi gangguan akibat kondisi cuaca atau kondisi alam. Namun juga memilik kekurangan, yaitu mahalnya biaya investasi dan sulitnya menentukan titik gangguan dan perbaikannya. Kedua cara penyaluran memiliki keuntungan dan kerugian masing-masing. Keuntungan yang dapat diperoleh dari suatu jaringan bawah...
