This course will explain the behaviour of certain electrical circuits as well as the tools to solve them and analyze them. The course starts early on DC analysis of circuits where Ohm's law is introduced along with examples. Later on in the course different examples will be given and different analyzing methods. Later on the student will get familiar with voltage and current sources, how to identify them and convert between them. And lastly the student will get some intensive lectures about different network theorems.
After each explanation about a theorem or how something works, a small lecture will be given in how to solve some quick examples related to that subject.
The course will contain mainly lectures on different topics mentioned above where the concept is explained and the theory. But the course will also contain different self study materials to further increase knowledge in the areas.
Course Content:
Ohm's law
Resistor circuits
Series and parallel connections
Kirchhoff's voltage and current laws
Nodal analysis
Power, Current and Voltage (definitions and calculations)
Dependent and independent current and voltage sources
Voltage and current division
Equivalent circuits:
Norton equivalent circuit
Thevenin equivalent circuit
After the course is finished the student should have good knowledge of common words used in the electrical engineering area, but also have ability to express and discuss topics in the area and solve them individually.
The course will give basic calculation examples for electrical engineers and other interested in the area.
(Bare in mind that this is the first part of the course in which the electrical topics are covered. The second part focuses on electrical networks and theorems as well as short circuits and larger circuits.)
