ECEN 215, Principles of Electrical EngineeringDr. Mina RahimianLecture# 9 Date: 9/23/13The Inductor :An inductor is an energy storage element composed of a coil of wire wound around a supporting core. The behavior of inductor is based on magnetic field which is created by charge in motion (current). A time varying current creates a time varying magnetic field which induces voltage in any conductor linked by the magnetic field. The parameter that relates the induced voltage to the current is called inductance, denoted by L and measured in Henrys (H).current in terms of voltagePower and energyImportant properties of inductors1. An inductor behaves as a short circuit when it's current is constant.2. The current in an inductor cannot change instantaneously. (Inductor current is continuous).series and parallel combination of inductorsvoltage divider rule for inductorscurrent divider rule for inductorsEx. Find the capacitor voltages and inductor currents under dc condition. ( Under dc condition all voltages and currents are
