Voltage Drop Between Sender & Receiver ( help needed , Thanks in advance )

In summary, the conversation discusses the topic of voltage drop between a sender and receiver in a power transmission system. The use of capacitors in parallel to an inductive load is mentioned as a way to compensate for voltage drop. The conversation also touches on the concept of current flowing without voltage drop, and the role of resistance in creating voltage drop. The importance of considering the placement of inductors and capacitors in a schematic diagram is emphasized, as well as the calculation of power dissipation in the load under different conditions.

Voltage Drop Between Sender & Receiver ...( help needed ASAP , Thanks in advance )

hello every body I'm EE student and I'm new member here ... in a deep need for your help & knowledge

I'm doing some reading about the power transmitted from the sender to the receiver end , As we all know that when we have an inductive load we need to connect capacitors on parallel to the load in order to compensate the drop in voltage
My question is ; what keeps the current to flow from the supply to the load ( as long as there is no longer difference in voltage ) ...
Is that because the Vs ( Sending voltage end ) and Vr ( receiving voltage end ) will "almost" have same magnitude but different phase angle !?

Another question ; what makes the voltage to drop in the very first place exactly !? the load !?

Regards.

Hello.
Why a current with no voltage drop (DC or AC)? For an ideal connecting wire the voltage drop is zero, too. Does that bother you? Reason: the resistance is vanishingly small so, for any current flowing through it, the voltage drop will also be vanishingly small.
(V = IR)
Draw yourself a schematic diagram of the situation, including a Source resistance, a Load (resistance plus some series L) and parallel C. Where is the L and where is the C? Calculate what the Load will look like with C = 0 and when the C and L resonate? See how much Power is dissipated in the Load under those two conditions.
 

FAQ: Voltage Drop Between Sender & Receiver ( help needed , Thanks in advance )

What is voltage drop between sender and receiver?

Voltage drop between sender and receiver refers to the decrease in voltage that occurs as electricity travels from the sender (such as a power source) to the receiver (such as a device or appliance). This can be caused by various factors such as resistance in the wires, distance between the sender and receiver, or the load of the device.

How is voltage drop calculated?

Voltage drop can be calculated using Ohm's Law, which states that voltage drop is equal to the current flowing through the circuit multiplied by the resistance of the circuit. This can be represented by the formula V = IR, where V is voltage drop, I is current, and R is resistance.

Why is voltage drop important to consider?

Voltage drop is important to consider because it can affect the performance and efficiency of electrical systems. Excessive voltage drop can cause devices to not function properly or even fail, and it can also lead to wasted energy and increased electricity costs.

How can voltage drop be reduced?

Voltage drop can be reduced by using larger wires with lower resistance, minimizing the distance between the sender and receiver, and ensuring proper connections and wiring techniques. Additionally, using a higher voltage power source can help reduce voltage drop.

What are some common causes of voltage drop between sender and receiver?

The most common causes of voltage drop between sender and receiver include long distances between the two, using wires with high resistance, and having high loads or too many devices connected to the same circuit. Other factors such as poor connections or faulty wiring can also contribute to voltage drop.
