COMPLEX NUMBER / PHASOR ALGEBRA

PREPARED BY ENGR. JOVEN BALTAZAR


PHASOR DIAGRAM AND PHASOR
ALGEBRA
Phasor Diagram is a graphical
representation of the phasors (i.e.
voltages and currents) of an ac circuit
and may not yield quick results in case
of complex circuits

Phasor Algebra / Complex Algebra


is mathematical technique that used
for phasors in algebraic form. It is a
simple and powerful tool for obtaining
quick solution in ac circuits.

1. 90 degrees rotation from OX axis


2. 180 degrees rotation from OX axis
3. 270 degrees rotation from OX axis
4. 360 degrees rotation from OX axis

POINTS TO BE NOTED :

• is an operator which rotates the phasor through 90 degrees in CCW direction


without changing the magnitude of the phasor.

• The operator occurs with the phasor only when it is along Y-axis (see the fig.)
Thus when the phasor is along OY-axis, it is V and when along OY′-axis, it is -
V. The phasor lying along X-axis is not associated with .

• Since and its value cannot be determined, it is called an imaginary number. For
this reason, any phasor (or its component) associated with is called the
imaginary part. A phasor (or its component) along X-axis is not associated with
j and is called the real part.

SIGNIFICANCE of
1. The quantity a + b is called a complex number or complex
quantity. It is because it consists of a real component (a) and
an imaginary component (b). NOTE
  : bold-faced letters (e.g. V, I etc.)
will be used to represent the phasor
2. To call the component lying along Y-axis (i.e. the completely, including both magnitude and
component associated with or ) as imaginary merely because direction. However, only the magnitude of
the phasor will be represented by the same
the value of cannot be determined is really *unfortunate. The letter in the ordinary type (e.g. V, I etc.).
so-called imaginary components can be represented However, while representing a phasor in
graphically on the Y-axis just as real components can be writing, a dot or arrowhead may be used.
represented on the X-axis. Electrical engineers rightly call e.g. V may be written as or
the horizontal and vertical components as in-phase and
quadrature components, respectively.
