resonance is the tendency of a system to oscillate at
maximum amplitude at a certain frequency. This frequency is
known as the system's resonance frequency (or resonant
frequency).
In electrical circuits, resonance occurs when the inductive
and capacitive reactances are equal and cancel. If the
reactors are in series, the circuits' impedance becomes
minimum and equals only the circuits' resistance. The
circuit current achieves a maximum value.
If the reactors are configured in parallel, often called
a "Tank" circuit, the resulting impedance becomes maximum,
ideally infinite, and the source current passing through
the parallel reactors becomes minimized, ideally zero.
Within the tank circuit however, the current achieves a
maximum value due to the cancelling reactor values.
when a body is vibrated with some periodic force,if the
natural frequency of that body coincides with the frequency
of the periodic force applied on it, with maximum amplitude
it is known as resonance......there are many types of
resonance-optical, electrical,mechanical,etc............
In all the generators, the excitation supply is DC. What is
the significance of DC excitation? What will happen if AC
supply is given as excitation supply?
