The course aims at providing practice in the development and use of simple computer programmes in high level languages such as C++. It provides an opportunity for the use of dedicated software packages for solving
electrical networks.
LIST OF PRACTICALS
1 To use C++ as a tool for problem solving in Electrical Technology such as: –
1.1 Application for the addition, subtraction, multiplication, division, and calculation of powers, roots and
exponentials etc.
1.2 Application for trigonometric and inverse trigonometric functions.
1.3 Calculation of impedances in polar form.
1.4 Calculation of impedances in rectangular form.
1.5 Combination of impedances in series involving conversion from polar to rectangular and vice versa.
1.6 Repeated use of rectangular to polar conversion as a part of subroutine of a file.
1.7 Solution of R.L.C. series and parallel circuits.
1.8 Calculation of A.C. powers, active and reactive components.
1.9 Calculation for improvement of power factor.
