Engineering Find T-Network Equiv of ∏ (Pi) Network - AC Equiv Circuits

Click For Summary
The discussion focuses on determining the T-network equivalent of a given Pi network using specific impedance equations. The participant outlines their calculations for the impedances Z1, Z2, and Z3 based on the relationships between the components Za, Zb, and Zc. They confirm their results, which indicate Z1 and Z2 both equal j6.67, while Z3 equals -j13.333. Feedback from others suggests that the approach is valid and aligns with a basic Δ-Y transformation. The conversation emphasizes the importance of clearly indicating the status of work in progress to facilitate better communication.

Homework Statement



Determine the T-network equivalent of the ∏ (Pi) network shown in the Figure?

Homework Equations



I started working on this question and don't know if I am heading in the right direction.

The impedances of the T network (Z1, Z2, Z3) can be found from the impedances of the equivalent pi network with the following equations:

Z1= ( Za x Zb ) / ( Za+ Zb + Zc )
Z2= ( Zb x Zc ) / ( Za+ Zb +Zc )
Z3 = ( Za x ZB ) / ( Za + Zb + Zc )

And then we can use our details:
C1 = Za
L1 = Zc
C2 = Zb

Z1 = (-j20 x j10 ) / (-j20+j10-j20)= -200j^2 / -30j = j6.67
Z2 = (-j20 x j10 ) / ( -j20+j10-j20) = -200j^2 / -30j = j6.67
Z3 = ((-j20 ) x (-20j )) / (-20j+ 10j -20j) = 400j^2 / -j30 = -j13.333

and now we come out with equivalent T -network. At least I hope!

No worries. Next time perhaps, leave a message in the post indicating that it's "in progress". That'll help us to avoid jumping the gun.

The approach you've shown looks fine. It's a basic Δ-Y transformation and appears to be correct.
