Power and Energy

L'energia è il lavoro totale richiesto per guidare la corrente attraverso il circuito.
Un aumento della tensione si traduce in più lavoro svolto, passando più corrente, con conseguente aumento del trasferimento di energia.
La potenza è la velocità con cui l'energia viene fornita o assorbita nel tempo, misurata in watt.
La potenza può anche essere espressa come il prodotto della tensione e della corrente istantanee attraverso un elemento.
Il segno di potenza dipende dalla direzione della corrente e dalla polarità della tensione.
Secondo la convenzione dei segni passivi, quando la corrente entra in un elemento del circuito al terminale positivo della tensione ed esce dal terminale negativo, l'elemento assorbe potenza.
Al contrario, se la corrente entra nel terminale negativo ed esce dal terminale positivo, l'elemento fornisce alimentazione.
La potenza totale fornita al circuito deve essere uguale alla potenza totale assorbita, convalidando la legge di conservazione dell'energia.
Per un elemento, l'energia assorbita o fornita è l'integrale della potenza istantanea.
Se un lettore di cassette assorbe corrente costante, utilizzando i parametri della batteria e la relazione potenza-energia, viene calcolata l'autonomia del lettore.

potenza ed energia

La potenza e l'energia fornite ad un elemento sono argomenti di grande importanza nel campo dell'ingegneria elettrica. È risaputo che una lampadina da 100 watt emette più luce di una da 60 watt. Pertanto, i calcoli di potenza ed energia svolgono un ruolo cruciale nell'analisi dei circuiti elettrici.

La potenza, definita come la velocità di consumo o assorbimento di energia, è quantificata in unità chiamate watt (W). La relazione tra potenza ed energia è matematicamente data come

<img alt="Equation1" src="/files/ftp_upload/15065/15065_PT_Equation_1.svg" style="text-align: center; height: 36px;">

dove "p" rappresenta la potenza in watt (W), "w" indica l'energia in joule (J) e "t" indica il tempo in secondi (s).

La potenza associata alla corrente che passa attraverso un elemento all'interno di un circuito è il prodotto della tensione ai capi di quell'elemento e della corrente che lo attraversa. Quando la corrente entra nell'elemento del circuito dal terminale positivo della tensione ed esce dal terminale negativo, aderisce alla convenzione passiva. Secondo questa convenzione, la tensione spinge una carica positiva nella stessa direzione indicata dalla corrente. Di conseguenza, la potenza calcolata moltiplicando la tensione dell'elemento per la corrente dell'elemento rappresenta la potenza ricevuta dall'elemento. Questa potenza viene talvolta definita "la potenza assorbita dall'elemento" o "la potenza dissipata dall'elemento". È importante sottolineare che la potenza ricevuta da un elemento può assumere valori positivi o negativi, a seconda dei valori effettivi della tensione e della corrente dell'elemento.

D'altra parte, quando la convenzione passiva non viene rispettata, la corrente entra nell'elemento del circuito dal terminale negativo della tensione ed esce dal terminale positivo. In questo caso la tensione spinge una carica positiva nella direzione opposta a quella indicata dalla corrente. Pertanto, quando la tensione e la corrente dell'elemento non rispettano la convenzione passiva, la potenza calcolata moltiplicando questi valori rappresenta la potenza fornita dall'elemento. Analogamente alla potenza ricevuta, anche la potenza fornita può essere positiva o negativa, a seconda dei valori specifici della tensione e della corrente dell'elemento.

Il rapporto tra la potenza ricevuta da un elemento e la potenza fornita da quello stesso elemento si esprime come

<img alt="Equation2" src="/files/ftp_upload/15065/15065_PT_Equation_2.svg" style="text-align: center; height: 14px;">

Quando la tensione e la corrente dell'elemento si allineano con la convenzione passiva, l'energia ricevuta da un elemento è data da

<img alt="Equation3" src="/files/ftp_upload/15065/15065_PT_Equation_3.svg" style="text-align: center; height: 64px;">

L'energia è definita come la capacità di compiere lavoro ed è espressa in joule (J).

TERMINI E CONCETTI CHIAVE

circuit power, absorption, and supply

Circuit power, absorption, and supply explain how much energy an element uses or delivers in an electric circuit. These ideas matter in electrical engineering because power and energy calculations help describe circuit behavior. A 100-watt light bulb, for example, emits more light than a 60-watt bulb, so wattage is a useful measure in real devices.

Power is the time rate of expending or absorbing energy. It is measured in watts, written as W. The relation between power and energy uses the variables p for power in watts, w for energy in joules, and t for time in seconds.

For a circuit element, power is found by multiplying the voltage across the element by the current through it. When current enters the positive terminal of the voltage and leaves the negative terminal, the passive convention is used. In this case, the voltage pushes positive charge in the same direction as the current.

Under the passive convention, the product of voltage and current gives the power received by the element. This is also called absorbed power or dissipated power. The received power can be positive or negative, depending on the actual voltage and current values.

If the current enters at the negative terminal and leaves at the positive terminal, the passive convention is not followed. Then the voltage drives positive charge opposite to the current direction. In that case, the product of voltage and current represents the power supplied by the element, and this supplied power can also be positive or negative.

The power received by an element and the power supplied by the same element are related. When voltage and current follow the passive convention, the energy received by the element is given by the power-energy relation over time. Energy is the capacity to perform work, and it is measured in joules, or J.

charge and current

Electric Charge in Circuits

Electric charge in circuits explains how charged particles behave in matter and how current is produced. Everyday static effects, like a wool sweater sticking to the body or a shock from a carpet, show charge in action. Charge is an inherent property of atomic particles and is measured in coulombs (C). Matter is made of atoms with electrons, protons, and neutrons. Electrons carry a negative charge (-e), and protons carry a positive charge (+e). These two charges have the same magnitude. An...

Voltage in Electric Circuits

Voltage in electric circuits is the energy needed to move electric charge between two points. It is also called electromotive force, or EMF. In most circuits, an external force such as a battery provides this energy for electron movement in a conductor. The voltage between points a and b is written as v_ab. It is defined as the work, or energy, needed to move a unit charge from point a to point b. In the equation, w is the energy in joules and q is the charge in coulombs. Voltage is measured...

electric circuit elements

Circuit Elements: Passive, Active, and Linear

Circuit elements are the building blocks of an electric circuit. An electric circuit is the connection of these elements. In this context, circuit elements are often grouped by how they behave and whether they supply energy. One major group is passive elements. These elements do not generate energy. Common passive elements include resistors, capacitors, and inductors. The other group is active elements, which can generate energy. Generators, batteries, and operational amplifiers are typical...

circuit terminology

Circuit Parts: Branches, Nodes, and Loops

Circuit parts like branches, nodes, loops, and meshes help describe how electrical networks work. An electrical network is a system of connected elements, such as resistors, capacitors, inductors, and voltage or current sources. Unlike a circuit, a network does not have to form a closed path. A circuit is also made of connected electrical elements, but it must include one or more closed paths. These loops let current flow continuously, which is what makes the circuit operate. Because of this,...

independent and dependent sources

Circuit Source Symbols and Controls

Circuit sources in electrical circuits can be independent or dependent. They provide the power a circuit needs to operate. Independent voltage sources supply a fixed voltage, and independent current sources supply a fixed current. Their output does not change because of other parts in the circuit. These sources use standard symbols in circuit diagrams. An independent voltage source is shown with + and - signs to mark the potential difference. An independent current source is shown with an...

ohm's law

Resistance and Conductance in Circuits

Resistance and conductance help explain how electric current moves through a circuit. Resistors are basic circuit parts made from metallic alloys or carbon compounds. They are used to model how a material resists current and to control and regulate electrical power in a circuit. Ohm's law describes the link between voltage and current across a resistor. The voltage across a resistor is directly proportional to the current through it. The constant that sets this relationship is resistance.

kirchhoff's current law

Kirchhoff's Current Law at Circuit Nodes

Kirchhoff's Current Law explains how current behaves at a circuit node. A node is the point where two or more circuit elements meet. The law says the current entering a node equals the current leaving it. That balance follows the rule of charge conservation, which means electric charge is not lost at the junction. When applying KCL, currents entering the node are treated as positive and currents leaving the node are treated as negative. The currents can be added algebraically at the node, and...

kirchhoff's voltage law

Voltage Balance in Closed Circuit Loops

Kirchhoff's Voltage Law explains how voltage is balanced in a closed circuit loop. It is a basic rule in electrical engineering and comes from the idea of energy conservation. Energy can change form, but it cannot be created or destroyed. KVL states that the algebraic sum of all voltages around a closed path, or loop, is zero. In other words, the total voltage supplied in a loop equals the total voltage drop across the components in that loop. A loop can be traced clockwise or anticlockwise,...

voltage dividers

Series Resistors and Voltage Split

Series resistors split voltage across a circuit. In a series setup, resistors are linked one after another. The same current flows through each resistor in the chain. To analyze this behavior, Ohm's law is used to relate voltage, current, and resistance. Kirchhoff's voltage law says the voltages around a series loop add up to the source voltage. That means the current in the circuit equals the source voltage divided by the total resistance in series. The current value can then be used in Ohm's...

current dividers

Parallel Resistors and Current Division

Parallel resistors share the same two nodes, so each resistor has the same voltage across it. In this circuit setup, Kirchhoff's current law applies. The source current equals the sum of the currents through each branch. Ohm's law helps find the branch currents from the source voltage and the resistor values. The source current is equal to the source voltage times the sum of the reciprocals of the resistances. This makes it easier to calculate how current divides in the circuit. The current...

equivalent resistance

Delta-Wye Network Conversion

Delta-wye network conversion helps analyze resistor circuits that are not arranged in simple series or parallel paths. These three-terminal equivalent networks use the wye (Y), also called tee (T), and the delta (Δ), also called pi (π), as practical circuit models. These networks are useful in many circuit settings. They appear in three-phase electrical systems, electrical filters, and matching networks. They can also be used on their own or combined with more complex circuits. A delta...

design example: resistive touchscreen

Resistive Touchscreen Voltage Mapping

A resistive touchscreen uses voltage mapping to locate a finger touch on a mobile device. It is built from two metallic layers. The top layer is flexible, and the bottom layer is rigid. A narrow gap separates them, and the high resistance between the layers is an important part of the design. When a user touches the screen, the two layers meet at one point. That contact point is called the touchpoint. The touch lowers the resistance between the layers at that spot and changes the electrical...
