AC Transients in an RL Circuit

by Maxwell Eickholt

 

Submitted : Spring 2012


In this project, the transient behavior that occurs in an RL circuit when it's switch is closed can be observed as a function of time. This function is found by using the mathematical model for this circuit to solve the first order linear differential equation where current i is a function of time. Once solved, the function was then graphed and analyzed to determine the transient behavior.
