Power Dissipation in Resistance
Tue Aug 14, 2018 1:19 pm
First topic message reminder :
Any resistor in a circuit that has a voltage drop across it dissipates electrical power. This electrical power is converted into heat energy hence all resistors have a power rating. This is the maximum power that can be dissipated from the resistor without it burning out.
When current flows in a resistance, heat is produced because friction between the moving free electrons and the atoms obstruct the path of electron flow. The heat is evidence that power is used in producing current. This is how the fuse opens, as heat resulting from excessive current melts the metal link in the fuse.
Since power is dissipated in the resistance of a circuit, it is convenient to express the power in terms of the resistance R. The formula P = V x I can be arranged as follow: substituting IR for V,
P = V x I
P = (IR) x I
P = I2R
For another form, substitute V/R for I. Then
P = V x I
P = V x V/R
P = V2/R
Any of the three formulas can be used to calculate the power dissipated in a resistance. The one to be used is a matter of convenience, depending on which factors are known.
Lets take a look at the example.
Here, we have a single 9 V battery, and a single 100 ? (100 Ohm) resistor, hooked up with wires to form a complete circuit.
To find answer, we need to be able to calculate the amount of power that the resistor will dissipate.
Here’s the general rule for calculating power dissipation:
Power Rule: P = I × V
If a current I flows through through a given element in your circuit, losing voltage V in the process, then the power dissipated by that circuit element is the product of that current and voltage: P = I × V.
Aside:
How can current times voltage end up giving us a “power” measurement?
To understand this, we need to remember what current and voltage physically represent.
Electric current is the rate of flow of electric charge through the circuit, normally expressed in amperes, where 1 ampere = 1 coulomb per second. (The coulomb is the SI unit of electric charge.)
Voltage, or more formally, electric potential, is the potential energy per unit of electric charge —across the circuit element in question. In most cases, you can think of this as the the amount of energy that is “used up” in the element, per unit of charge that passes through. Electric potential is normally measured in volts, where 1 volt = 1 joule per coulomb. (The joule is the SI unit of energy.)
So, if we take a current times a voltage, that gives us the amount of energy that is “used up” in the element, per unit of charge, times the number of those units of charge passing through the element per second:
1 ampere × 1 volt =
1 ( coulomb / second ) × 1 ( joule / coulomb ) =
1 joule / second
The resulting quantity is in units of one joule per second: a rate of flow of energy, better known as power. The SI unit of power is the watt, where 1 watt = 1 joule per second.
Finally then, we have
1 ampere × 1 volt = 1 watt

The voltage, current or resistance of any series connected circuit can easily be found and resistor of a series circuit can be interchanged without affecting the total resistance, current, or power to each resistor.

Hndi. Pero panigurado nakakapagod yun para sa kanya. Sa isang relasyong kapag on and off nakakapagod diba?? Ayyy jokeee
Pero sa tingin ko oo, isang factor ding ng mabilis na pagkapundi yung patay sindi, kasi yung sa voltage diba, once na binuksan mo yung ilaw dun nag sstart yung pag push ng voltage sa current. Kaya ayun, sa palagay ko lang naman
HAHAHA! Thanks Draven!

You have voltage drop anytime you have resistance and current. To get lower voltage drop you can either lower the resistance or lower the current. You can lower the resistance by going to lower resistance wire, either thicker, or lower resistance per cube, or shorter wires. You can lower the current by drawing less power os by using a higher voltage for the same amount of power.

I wouldn't say maximum, rather permissible voltage drop.
Voltage variations in 33 kV and 11kV feeders should not exceed the following limits at the farthest end under peak load conditions and normal system operation regime.
Above 33kV (-) 12.5% to (+) 10%.
Up to 33kV (-) 9.0% to (+) 6.0%.
Low voltage (-) 6.0% to (+) 6.0%
But you may refer here: https : / / energypedia.info /wiki /Permissible_Voltage_Drop#Permissible_Voltage_Drop

SInce some other user here ask about voltage drop, I want to ask what causes low voltage in a house? Is it related to "di agad nagbubukas yung ilaw"?

It may take steps:
The first and the second color will be the 2 values.
third color is for multiplier, for example we have red, red, yellow and gold.
red = 2, so the 2 values is 22, then
the 3rd color, yellow=4, which is multiplier, so
the value 22 will be multiplied in 1000, we will get 22,000 ohms.
For some instances, the resistor doesn't have a 4th bond so the value will be the same.
Hope you understand.
For you to understand it deeply, you can search in the internet. You will get dozens of answer there.

There are two basic types of resistor
Linear resistor
Non linear resistor
Under the linear resistor is a fixed and variable resistor
Fixed resistor consists:
Carbon Composition Resistors
Wire Wound Resistors
Thin Film Resistors
Thick Film Resistors
Variable resistor consist:
1. Potentiometers
2. Rheostats
3. Trimmers
This resistors also have its kinds.

Poor quality or fluctuating power supply can often cause power surges, spikes and voltage fluctuations.
Examples of this can include flickering lights, lights glowing brighter or dimmer, incandescent bulbs blowing prematurely, failure of electronic equipment (especially computers), interference of radio or TV reception.

The power that is created through the voltage and current will be used up by the load and its resistance. Bale ang patunay na nagamit yung power or dissipated na ang power is the heat.

aside from resistor what are the other components that dissipates?

Its not actually the resistor that dissipates, it is the power. The resistance of the resistor is one of the reasons why the power is dissipating.
