Mastering Load Flow Studies: A Comprehensive Guide to Sine and Cosine in Math

AI Thread Summary
Sine and cosine are integral to understanding complex power in load flow studies, as they represent the components of two-dimensional vectors. The discussion highlights that an angle T can be expressed as A cos T + A sin T, emphasizing the relationship between these trigonometric functions and vector representation. Participants explore the connection between rectangular and exponential notation of complex numbers, noting that A<T can be expressed as A cos T + iA sin T, which equals Ae^(iT). This illustrates the mathematical foundation for analyzing electrical systems. The conversation underscores the importance of mastering these concepts for effective load flow analysis.

Hello...

Can anyone tell me how sine and cosine came in ,above .(To the last of the attachment pic)

Thank you.

A angle T is A cos T + A sin T. In other words, things at an angle have sin and cos components. Complex power is about "real and imaginary" (I hate those terms) components. I'd rather say that complex power is about 2 dimensional vectors with sin and cos components.
 
@meBigGuy,
Thanks..!:)
 
Is there an 'i' with that?!

Like
A<T = AcosT + iAsinT

And isn't this equal to Ae^(iT) ??!
 
yeah
rectangular and exponential notation of complex numbers.
 

Thread 'What happens if shielded cable has a short to the shield?'

While I was rolling out a shielded cable, a though came to my mind - what happens to the current flow in the cable if there came a short between the wire and the shield in both ends of the cable? For simplicity, lets assume a 1-wire copper wire wrapped in an aluminum shield. The wire and the shield has the same cross section area. There are insulating material between them, and in both ends there is a short between them. My first thought, the total resistance of the cable would be reduced...

Thread 'Underwater piezoelectric sensor array receive sensitivity'

Hi all I have some confusion about piezoelectrical sensors combination. If i have three acoustic piezoelectrical sensors (with same receive sensitivity in dB ref V/1uPa) placed at specific distance, these sensors receive acoustic signal from a sound source placed at far field distance (Plane Wave) and from broadside. I receive output of these sensors through individual preamplifiers, add them through hardware like summer circuit adder or in software after digitization and in this way got an...

Thread 'Question about bonding ground and neutral'

I am not an electrical engineering student, but a lowly apprentice electrician. I learn both on the job and also take classes for my apprenticeship. I recently wired my first transformer and I understand that the neutral and ground are bonded together in the transformer or in the service. What I don't understand is, if the neutral is a current carrying conductor, which is then bonded to the ground conductor, why does current only flow back to its source and not on the ground path...
