ABC OF ELECTRICITY

BASIC FORMULAS

F (force)= m (mass) * a (acceleration)  
Work done = Force * distance  
Q (coulomb)=I (current) * t (time)  
V (voltage)= I (current) * R (resistance)  
Power ( in watts ) = Volts * Ampears  
Watt-hour = Watt * Hour  
Volume Resistivity =(r)*( l / a)=(r)*(V/a2)=(r)*( l 2/V)
Conductance ( G ) =   ( l / r) * (a / l ) = ( g a / l )  
Where, r = Resistivity  
             l  a =  Uniform Cross-section area
            V = Volume of the Conductor
            g = Conductivity

D.C. Motors and Generators  

E.m.f. equation of a D.C. generator            
E = (fZN/60)(P/A) *10 - 8 V  
Armature torque of a D.C. motor            
Ta = ( 0.118*10 – 8  * f * ZIa (P/A) ) Ib.- ft.
    = 7.04 ((Eb * Ia) / (N)) Ib.-ft.  
Shaft torque of a D.C. motor                
 
Tsh  = (33000*B.H.P.) /(746) Ib.-ft.  
Relationship between motor speeds At different loads
(N2 / N1) = (Eb2 / Eb1)*(f1 / f2)  
KW Output of Motors = ( 2 * PI * N(Speed in RPM ) * T ( Torque in KGM)) / 4500
