Voltage Drop Between Sender & Receiver ( help needed , Thanks in advance )

Click For Summary
SUMMARY

The forum discussion centers on the voltage drop between a sender and receiver in electrical circuits, particularly in the context of inductive loads. The user seeks clarification on the factors affecting current flow when voltage differences are minimal, specifically in relation to phase angles between sending voltage (Vs) and receiving voltage (Vr). Additionally, the discussion addresses the causes of voltage drop, emphasizing the role of load resistance and the importance of capacitors in parallel to compensate for inductive effects. Key concepts include Ohm's Law (V = IR) and resonance in RLC circuits.

PREREQUISITES
  • Understanding of Ohm's Law (V = IR)
  • Basic knowledge of RLC circuit components (Resistors, Inductors, Capacitors)
  • Familiarity with phase angles in AC circuits
  • Concept of resonance in electrical circuits
NEXT STEPS
  • Study RLC circuit resonance and its impact on voltage and current
  • Learn about power factor correction techniques using capacitors
  • Explore the effects of load resistance on voltage drop in circuits
  • Investigate the relationship between phase angle and current flow in AC systems
USEFUL FOR

Electrical engineering students, circuit designers, and professionals involved in power transmission and load management will benefit from this discussion.

Voltage Drop Between Sender & Receiver ...( help needed ASAP , Thanks in advance )

hello every body I'm EE student and I'm new member here ... in a deep need for your help & knowledge

I'm doing some reading about the power transmitted from the sender to the receiver end , As we all know that when we have an inductive load we need to connect capacitors on parallel to the load in order to compensate the drop in voltage
My question is ; what keeps the current to flow from the supply to the load ( as long as there is no longer difference in voltage ) ...
Is that because the Vs ( Sending voltage end ) and Vr ( receiving voltage end ) will "almost" have same magnitude but different phase angle !?

Another question ; what makes the voltage to drop in the very first place exactly !? the load !?

Regards.

Hello.
Why a current with no voltage drop (DC or AC)? For an ideal connecting wire the voltage drop is zero, too. Does that bother you? Reason: the resistance is vanishingly small so, for any current flowing through it, the voltage drop will also be vanishingly small.
(V = IR)
Draw yourself a schematic diagram of the situation, including a Source resistance, a Load (resistance plus some series L) and parallel C. Where is the L and where is the C? Calculate what the Load will look like with C = 0 and when the C and L resonate? See how much Power is dissipated in the Load under those two conditions.
