Question
A square wave current(up to 5th harmonic only) flows in a 3 Ohms resistor. Determine the average power
consumption of the load. The answer is provided at bottom right.
The equation of the wave is as follows:
i(t) = 5+ 6.366 sin(120zt) + 2.122 sin(360zt) + 1.273sin(600rt)
Black: 5
Ans: 144.97 W
Green: 6.366 sin(120nt)
Blue: 2.122 sin(360nt)
Red: 1.273 sin(600nt)
Orange: i(t)
If you try to include the next harmonics in the computations, the average
power will slowly reach 150 W. This is because, the current is a 10-A
pulsating square wave. The complete equation can be achieved using
Fourier series(EE235- ENGINEERING MATH FOR EE)
