    Current Trapezoid
AI Thread Summary
To calculate the average current of a trapezoidal waveform, it's important to clarify the specific type of current being referenced, such as average or RMS current. The method for calculating these values remains consistent across different waveforms, although some shortcuts may exist. Users are encouraged to integrate the current or apply geometric principles to derive the necessary values. The forum emphasizes the importance of independent problem-solving rather than simply providing formulas. Understanding the underlying concepts is crucial for accurate calculations.

may i know what is the formula to calculate current of trapezoid??
 
Engineering news on Phys.org
two things...

1. We need more information. do you mean average current, rms current, etc?
2. This is the third question you have asked about finding some value of current related to the shape of the waveforms. The method of finding RMS, average current, etc will be the same from waveform to waveform. For some waveforms yes there will be shortcuts that you easily finding on sites such as Wikipedia. The goal of this site is not to spoon feed you equations, but rather to help you think on your own.

Integrate the current or use geometry.

Thread 'Weird near-field phenomenon I get in my EM simulation'

I recently made a basic simulation of wire antennas and I am not sure if the near field in my simulation is modeled correctly. One of the things that worry me is the fact that sometimes I see in my simulation "movements" in the near field that seems to be faster than the speed of wave propagation I defined (the speed of light in the simulation). Specifically I see "nodes" of low amplitude in the E field that are quickly "emitted" from the antenna and then slow down as they approach the far...

Thread 'EMF (Electromagnetic Field) & EHS (Electromagnetic Hyper Sensitivity)'

Hello dear reader, a brief introduction: Some 4 years ago someone started developing health related issues, apparently due to exposure to RF & ELF related frequencies and/or fields (Magnetic). This is currently becoming known as EHS. (Electromagnetic hypersensitivity is a claimed sensitivity to electromagnetic fields, to which adverse symptoms are attributed.) She experiences a deep burning sensation throughout her entire body, leaving her in pain and exhausted after a pulse has occurred...
