    Calculating Armature Current from Active & Reactive Power & Voltage

    How do calculate the current when I have the active power and reactive power and voltage? A single-phase, full-wave controlled bridge rectifier supplies a permanent magnet dc motor. The rectifier is connected to a 240V ac voltage source and absorbs 1200W of active power and 1000VAR of...

    Engineering Calculating the armature current of the motor.

    Homework Statement A single-phase, full-wave controlled bridge rectifier supplies a permanent magnet dc motor. The rectifier is connected to a 240V ac voltage source and absorbs 1200W of active power and 1000VAR of reactive power from the source. If power loss in the rectifier is negligible...

    Finding the second heat sink area from thermal resistance and power loss

    I wasn't given any other figures, I have managed to solve it this way, please correct me if I am wrong: Q is the power dissipated by the device = 25W TJ is the junction temperature in the device = 85˚C TC is the temperature at its case=? TH is the temperature where the heat sink is...
