    The document summarizes an experiment to determine the internal resistance, resistance, frequency, true power, and inductance of an R-L-C circuit when AC flows through it. The circuit diagram and components are described. Measurements of current, voltages, and power are recorded. Calculations are shown to determine the capacitive reactance, frequency, inductive reactance, inductance, apparent power, and power factor. A phasor diagram is included. The discussion analyzes the accuracy of calculations and explains concepts like how inductive reactance is measured. The conclusion states that the phasor diagram helps make sense of the calculations and explains the effects of frequency on inductance and capacitance.

    o 1x inductor
    o 1x variable capacitor bank
    o Variable resistor
    o Lab equipments

    Procedure:
    Electrical Eng. Lab
    Subject code AEI 2211/AEI 2221
     Ensure that the variac is switched off and that it is fully turned anticlockwise.
    Measure between the output points of the variac with your voltmeter to confirm
    that there is no power on the variac
     Connect the circuit as shown above. But we must place the Wattmeter across the
    supply.
    NB UNDER NO CIRCUMSTANCES MAY THE POWER BE SWITCHED ON UNTIL A LECTURER HAS
    CHECKED AND APPROVED THE CIRCUIT CONNECTIONS!

     Switch on the power and increase the voltage slowly to a point where the current
    flowing in the circuit is 0.7 A.
     Record all the values i.e. input current, the input voltage, the voltage across the
    resistor R, coil XL, True power, Capacitor bank and the resistor.
     Also measure the voltage across terminal A and B, and record the value.
     When measuring voltage, the voltmeter must be connected across the
    circuit.
     When measuring current, you must break the circuit and the current
    meter must be inserted into the circuit (in series).

    XC = 2 π fL
    = VC / IT
    = 56.3 / 0.7
    = 80.43Ω

    XC = 1 / 2πfC
    F = 1 / 2πC XC
    = 49.5Hz » 50Hz

    V(coil) = IT Z (coil)
    = IT (r + jXL)
    87.8v = 0.7 (24.4 + jXL)
    XL = 101.03Ω

    XL = 2πfL
    L = XL / 2πf
    = 101.03 / 2π(49.5)
    = 0.325H

    S = VS IT
    = 46v x 0.7A

    Phasor Diagram

    Discussion

     The calculations are almost accurate because we used true values.


     The resistivity of the coil is a constant* (if the temperature remains constant).
     We are able explain and identify various ways on how Xl is measured.
    Electrical Eng. Lab
     WeSubject code AEI 2211/AEI 2221
    use Geometry/Pythagoras to calculate the true values of the internal
    resistance of the coil
     To draw, interpret and do calculations on waveforms of RL voltages and current.
    (Sinusoidal and complex waveforms)
     Explain what happens to the voltage-current relationship, when an alternating
    supply is applied to Series combinations of pure resistances, inductors.

    Conclusion

     The phasor diagram makes the calculations to make perfect senses.

     The frequency has an effect on the Inductance and Capacitants

     The value of the internal resistance in an Inducture remains constant provided the

    temperature remains constant.
