For a spark circuit with the following parameters:
- Frequency: f = 150 kHz
- Mutual capacitance: C_mut = 10 pF
- Shunt capacitance: C_sh = 8 pF
Calculate both R_opt_power and R_opt_phase.
hints:
- "R_opt_power = 1/[ω(C_mut + C_sh)]"
- "R_opt_phase = 1/[ω√(C_mut(C_mut + C_sh))]"
- "Calculate ω = 2πf first"
- "R_opt_power is always smaller than R_opt_phase"
solution:
steps:
- "Calculate angular frequency: ω = 2π × 150×10³ = 9.425×10⁵ rad/s"
- "Calculate R_opt_power:"
- "C_total = C_mut + C_sh = 10 + 8 = 18 pF"
- "R_opt_power = 1/(ω × C_total)"
- "= 1/(9.425×10⁵ × 18×10⁻¹²)"
- "= 1/(16.965×10⁻⁶)"
- "= 58.9 kΩ"
- "Calculate R_opt_phase:"
- "Product: C_mut × (C_mut + C_sh) = 10 × 18 = 180 pF²"
- "Square root: √180 = 13.42 pF"
- "R_opt_phase = 1/(ω × √180×10⁻¹²)"
- "= 1/(9.425×10⁵ × 13.42×10⁻¹²)"
- "= 1/(12.65×10⁻⁶)"
- "= 79.1 kΩ"
- "Compare: R_opt_power/R_opt_phase = 58.9/79.1 = 0.745"
answer_power: "58.9"
answer_phase: "79.1"
unit: "kΩ"
ratio: "0.745"
tolerance: 3.0
explanation: |
This problem demonstrates the two critical resistances for spark optimization.
R_opt_power (58.9 kΩ) maximizes real power transfer to the spark, while
R_opt_phase (79.1 kΩ) minimizes the impedance phase angle magnitude. The ratio
of 0.745 is typical - R_opt_power is usually 50-75% of R_opt_phase. These
different values show that maximum power transfer and minimum phase angle are
different optimization goals that cannot be achieved simultaneously.
