    Experiment 1.3: R-L Circuit Analysis and Power Factor Determination

    Uploaded by

    Demoin Gaming
    This document describes an experiment to analyze the voltage-current relationship in a resistor-inductor (R-L) series circuit and determine the power factor. The experiment involves connecting a circuit with a resistor, inductor, and AC power supply. Readings of supply voltage, current, resistor voltage, inductor voltage, and power are taken by varying the resistive and inductive loads. Calculations are done to find the impedance, reactance, inductance, and power factor. The power factor is found to be 0.6858, indicating the current lags the voltage by an angle of 68.3 degrees in the R-L circuit. Sources of error in the measurements are also listed.

    Student Name: Sarthak Singh Chauhan


    UID: 21BCS4778
    Branch: Computer Science
    Section/Group: ON21BCS417-B
    Semester: First
    Subject Name: Basic of Electrical and Electronics Engineering
    Subject Code: 21ELH-101_ON21BCS417

    AIM: To study voltage-current relationship in an R-L series circuit


    and to determine the power factor of the circuit.

    APPARATUS REQUIRED:
    CIRCUIT DIAGRAM:

    THEORY: An AC series circuit consisting of a resistor and an


    inductor is shown in Fig, I is the current flowing through the resistor
    and the inductor. The voltage drop across the resistor and the inductor
    is VR and VL respectively. The phasor sum of these two voltages will
    be equal to the applied voltage V. In a resistive circuit the voltage and
    current are in phase. In a pure inductive circuit the current lags the
    voltage by 90 degrees.

    PRECAUTIONS:
    1.     1-ö variac should be set at zero potential before switching on 1-ö
    AC supply.
    2.     Meters of suitable range should be used as shown in Table 1
    3.     The current coil (CC) and potential coil (PC) of wattmeter
    should be shorted externally.
    STEPS/PROCEDURE:
    1.     Connect the circuit as shown in figure above.
    2.     Vary the 1-ö AC supply voltage with the help of 1-ö variac.
    3.     Switch on the resistive load by switching various lamps in
    resistive lamp bank and vary the tappings of choke coil.
    4.     Take readings of Vs, I, VL, VR and P.
    5.     Increase resistive and inductive load by switching and repeat the
    procedure as stated in steps 1 to 4.
    6.     Take at least 5 set of readings and record the readings in table.
    7.     Calculate impedance of circuit, impedance of coil, internal
    resistance of coil, inductive reactance of coil, inductance of coil and
    power factor from readings.

    CALCULATIONS:
    W =VI Cosϕ-------------------------------------------------- eq. (i)
    Power factor, Cosϕ = [W/(VI)] ---------------------------- eq. (ii)
    Therefore, ϕ = Cos-1[W/(VI)] --------------------------------eq. (iii)
    RESULT:
    In R-L series circuit current lags voltage by angle ∅
    Phase angle (∅) = 68.3
    Power factor (Cos∅) = 0.6858

    SOURCES OF ERROR:
    o Internal resistance of multimeter and wattmeter.
    o Internal resistance of connecting wires.
    o Internal resistance and inductance of choke coil.
    o Analog wattmeter may not be allowed.
    o Internal resistance and inductance of autotransformer coil.
