EET 114 Electric Circuits II

Standard Course Outline (Updated Fall 2005)

|Catalog Description: |114: Electrical Circuits II |

| |(4 credits) ) Direct and alternating current circuit analysis including Thevenin and Norton theorems, Mesh and Node |

| |analysis, capacitance, inductance, resonance, power, and polyphase circuits.  Prerequisites: EET101, MATH 081. |

|Goals of the Course: |Electrical Circuits II completes the circuit sequence of course material begun in EET 101.  The student should have a|

| |good grasp of AC and DC circuit analysis techniques following completion of this course.  Many of the topics that are|

| |given only cursory coverage in the previous course (capacitance, inductance, power) are expanded in this course. |

|Relationship to EET Program |EET 114 contributes to the following EET program outcomes: |

|Outcomes: |Students should be able to apply basic knowledge in electronics, electrical circuit analysis, electrical machines, |

| |microprocessors, and programmable logic controllers. (Outcome 1) |

| |Students should be able to apply basic mathematical, scientific, and engineering concepts to technical problem |

| |solving. (Outcome 3) |

|Course Outcomes: |The specific course outcomes supporting the program outcomes are: |

| |Outcome 1: |

| |Students should be able to accurately represent AC and DC currents and voltages in a circuit using Network Analysis; |

| |Mesh and Nodal Analysis. |

| |Students should be able to accurately represent AC and DC currents and voltages in a circuit using Network Theorems; |

| |Superposition, Thevenin, and Norton Theorems. |

| |Students should be able to accurately determine transient response for simple capacitive and/or inductive circuit. |

| |Students should be able to accurately represent real, reactive, and apparent power by applying the power triangle |

| |method. |

| |Students should be able to accurately represent the resonance frequency (fr), and quality factor (Q) by applying |

| |series or parallel resonance method. |

| |Students should be able to accurately determine three phase currents and voltages for; delta-wye, wye-delta, wye-wye,|

| |delta-delta connection. |

| | |

| |Outcome 3: |

| |Students will be able to apply concepts in algebra, complex numbers, simultaneous equation and phasors to calculate |

| |accurate solutions to AC and DC circuits using the methods indicated in outcome #1 |

|Suggested Texts: |The following are suitable texts and/or references for this course: |

| |Boylestad, Introductory Circuit Analysis, Prentice Hall |

| |Bartkowiak, Electric Circuit Analysis, John Wiley & Sons |

| |Jackson, Introduction to Electric Circuits, Prentice Hall |

| |Floyd, Electric Circuits Fundamentals, Prentice Hall |

| |Floyd, Principles of Electric Circuits, Prentice Hall |

|Prerequisites by Topic: |Students are expected to have the following topical knowledge upon entering this course: |

| |Students should have a good understanding of algebra and trigonometry fundamentals, or to be taken concurrently. |

| | Math 81 or its equivalent is a prerequisite. |

| |DC and AC circuit analysis through series/parallel circuits.  EET 101 or its equivalent is a prerequisite for this |

| |course. |

| |Some rudimentary computer literacy is helpful but not necessary.  Most students will have experience with PSPICE or |

| |equivalent software for circuit solutions in EET 101. |

| |Some EET lab experience is helpful.  The lab course that accompanies this course is EET 118.  Students taking EET |

| |118 must have previous lab experience. |

|Course Topics: |The following weekly topics are taken from the Boylestad text.  Coverage times shown in parentheses are suggestions |

| |only.   Note - one hour indicated here represents a single 50-minute class period. |

| |Course orientation, review of basic DC and AC topics covered previously. (1 hour) |

| |Capacitors, definitions, transient analysis, series/parallel capacitors, stored energy, capacitors in DC circuits (6 |

| |hours) |

| |Magnetic circuit overview (1 hour) |

| |Inductors, definitions, transient analysis, series/parallel inductors, stored energy, inductors & capacitors in DC |

| |circuits (6 hours) |

| |AC/DC circuits analysis techniques, mesh & nodal analysis, phasor diagrams (12hours) |

| |AC/DC network theorems, superposition, Thevenin & Norton theorems, maximum power transfer (12 hours) |

| |AC power, power triangle; real, reactive, and apparent power, power factor correction (6 hours) |

| |Series and parallel resonance (6 hours) |

| |Polyphase systems (6 hours) |

| |Major exams (4 hours) |

|Computer Use: |Students typically will be taking this course during the second semester of the EET program.  Most students will have|

| |some experience using PSPICE or equivalent software to solve simple circuits. |

| |The Boylestad text includes PSPICE solutions for most topics in this course.  The other texts provide similar |

| |solution techniques.  This course, along with the accompanying EET 118 lab, should require the use of computers to |

| |analyze the AC and DC circuits covered in the course. |

|Laboratory Exercises: |Associated EET 118 lab class: |

| |A separate laboratory course, EET 118, Electrical Circuits Lab II, is offered concurrently with EET 114.  The same |

| |instructor should teach both EET 114 and EET 118. |

| |The lab exercises in EET 118 should support and mirror the topics covered in the lecture course.  Some computer usage|

| |in circuit analysis should be a part of the lab experience during the semester |

|Course Grading: |Course grading policies are left to the discretion of the individual instructor. |

|Course Assessment |The following may be useful methods for assessing the success of this course in achieving the intended outcomes |

| |listed above: |

| |Outcomes 1and 3: Traditional exams, quizzes, and homework assignments covering lecture material can be used to assess|

| |these outcomes. |
