  2. Internal resistance - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Internal_resistance

    Internal resistance model of a source of voltage, where ε is the electromotive force of the source, R is the load resistance, V is the voltage drop across the load, I is the current delivered by the source, and r is the internal resistance. In electrical engineering, a practical electric power source which is a linear circuit may, according to ...

    In electrical engineering and ... is the process of finding ... theorem in order to be able to later combine the internal resistance of the generator with a parallel ...

  4. Maximum power transfer theorem - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Maximum_power_transfer_theorem

    Simplified model for powering a load with resistance R L by a source with voltage V S and resistance R S.. The theorem was originally misunderstood (notably by Joule [4]) to imply that a system consisting of an electric motor driven by a battery could not be more than 50% efficient, since the power dissipated as heat in the battery would always be equal to the power delivered to the motor when ...

  6. Thévenin's theorem - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thévenin's_theorem

    The resistance is measured after replacing all voltage- and current-sources with their internal resistances. That means an ideal voltage source is replaced with a short circuit, and an ideal current source is replaced with an open circuit. Resistance can then be calculated across the terminals using the formulae for series and parallel circuits ...

  7. Ohm's law - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ohm's_law

    Ohm's law, in the form above, is an extremely useful equation in the field of electrical/electronic engineering because it describes how voltage, current and resistance are interrelated on a "macroscopic" level, that is, commonly, as circuit elements in an electrical circuit.

  8. Shunt (electrical) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shunt_(electrical)

    A shunt is a device that is designed to provide a low-resistance path for an electrical current in a circuit. It is typically used to divert current away from a system or component in order to prevent overcurrent. Electrical shunts are commonly used in a variety of applications including power distribution systems, electrical measurement ...

  9. Equivalent circuit model for Li-ion cells - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Equivalent_circuit_model...

    The equivalent-circuit model is used to simulate the voltage at the cell terminals when an electric current is applied to discharge or recharge it. The most common circuital representation consists of three elements in series: a variable voltage source, representing the open-circuit voltage (OCV) of the cell, a resistor representing ohmic internal resistance of the cell and a set of resistor ...
