An essential resource for both students and teachers alike, this DC Electrical Circuits Workbook contains over 500 problems spread across seven chapters. Each chapter begins with an overview of the relevant theory and includes exercises focused on specific kinds of circuit problems such as Analysis, Design, Challenge and Computer Simulation. An Appendix offers the answers to the odd-numbered Analysis and Design exercises. Chapter topics include fundamental for current, voltage, energy, power and resistor color code; series, parallel, and series-parallel resistive circuits using either voltage or current sources; analysis techniques such as superposition, source conversions, mesh analysis, nodal analysis, Thévenin's and Norton's theorems, and delta-wye conversions; plus dependent sources, and an introduction to capacitors and inductors. RL and RC circuits are included for DC initial and steady state response along with transient response. This is the print version of the on-line OER.
Luis Moura and Izzat Darwazeh introduce linear circuit modelling and analysis applied to both electrical and electronic circuits, starting with DC and progressing up to RF, considering noise analysis along the way. Avoiding the tendency of current textbooks to focus either on the basic electrical circuit analysis theory (DC and low frequency AC frequency range), on RF circuit analysis theory, or on noise analysis, the authors combine these subjects into the one volume to provide a comprehensive set of the main techniques for the analysis of electric circuits in these areas. Taking the subject from a modelling angle, this text brings together the most common and traditional circuit analysis techniques (e.g. phasor analysis) with system and signal theory (e.g. the concept of system and transfer function), so students can apply the theory for analysis, as well as modelling of noise, in a broad range of electronic circuits. A highly student-focused text, each chapter contains exercises, worked examples and end of chapter problems, with an additional glossary and bibliography for reference. A balance between concepts and applications is maintained throughout. Luis Moura is a Lecturer in Electronics at the University of Algarve. Izzat Darwazeh is Senior Lecturer in Telecommunications at University College, London, previously at UMIST. - An innovative approach fully integrates the topics of electrical and RF circuits, and noise analysis, with circuit modelling - Highly student-focused, the text includes exercises and worked examples throughout, along with end of chapter problems to put theory into practice
provides a better understanding of electrical engineering terms, concepts, principles, laws, analysis methods, solution strategies and computational techniques. includes a brief introduction to the NEC and the Arc Flash Codes. deals with electrical energy cost and tips on improvement of electrical energy intensity in industrial and commercial environment. discusses myriad battery options available in the market; their strengths, weaknesses, opportunities that lie ahead and potential threats, and how batteries compare with capacitors as energy storage devices.
The book, now in its Second Edition, presents the concepts of electrical circuits with easy-to-understand approach based on classroom experience of the authors. It deals with the fundamentals of electric circuits, their components and the mathematical tools used to represent and analyze electrical circuits. This text guides students to analyze and build simple electric circuits. The presentation is very simple to facilitate self-study to the students. A better way to understand the various aspects of electrical circuits is to solve many problems. Keeping this in mind, a large number of solved and unsolved problems have been included. The chapters are arranged logically in a proper sequence so that successive topics build upon earlier topics. Each chapter is supported with necessary illustrations. It serves as a textbook for undergraduate engineering students of multiple disciplines for a course on ‘circuit theory’ or ‘electrical circuit analysis’ offered by major technical universities across the country. SALIENT FEATURES • Difficult topics such as transients, network theorems, two-port networks are presented in a simple manner with numerous examples. • Short questions with answers are provided at the end of every chapter to help the students to understand the basic laws and theorems. • Annotations are given at appropriate places to ensure that the students get the gist of the subject matter clearly. NEW TO THE SECOND EDITION • Incorporates several new solved examples for better understanding of the subject • Includes objective type questions with answers at the end of the chapters • Provides an appendix on ‘Laplace Transforms’

A concise and original presentation of the fundamentals for ‘new to the subject’ electrical engineers This book has been written for students on electrical engineering courses who don’t necessarily possess prior knowledge of electrical circuits. Based on the author’s own teaching experience, it covers the analysis of simple electrical circuits consisting of a few essential components using fundamental and well-known methods and techniques. Although the above content has been included in other circuit analysis books, this one aims at teaching young engineers not only from electrical and electronics engineering, but also from other areas, such as mechanical engineering, aerospace engineering, mining engineering, and chemical engineering, with unique pedagogical features such as a puzzle-like approach and negative-case examples (such as the unique “When Things Go Wrong…” section at the end of each chapter). Believing that the traditional texts in this area can be overwhelming for beginners, the author approaches his subject by providing numerous examples for the student to solve and practice before learning more complicated components and circuits. These exercises and problems will provide instructors with in-class activities and tutorials, thus establishing this book as the perfect complement to the more traditional texts. All examples and problems contain detailed analysis of various circuits, and are solved using a ‘recipe’ approach, providing a code that motivates students to decode and apply to real-life engineering scenarios Covers the basic topics of resistors, voltage and current sources, capacitors and inductors, Ohm’s and Kirchhoff’s Laws, nodal and mesh analysis, black-box approach, and Thevenin/Norton equivalent circuits for both DC and AC cases in transient and steady states Aims to stimulate interest and discussion in the basics, before moving on to more modern circuits with higher-level components Includes more than 130 solved examples and 120 detailed exercises with supplementary solutions Accompanying website to provide supplementary materials www.wiley.com/go/ergul4412
