Moving forward, let's explain what happened in this water supply scenario In the case of pumping water direct to the tank without a buffer tank, note the following 1. Fluctuations in the water supply due to pump operation is transmitted to each flat ( No constant flow) 2. There is no pool of water created 3. Water distribution is not uniform 4. The moment the pump stops, the flow stops Looking at the second scenario, the following is obtainable 1. Because there is overhead reserve, there is no fluctuations in the water flow 2. A big pool of water is created 3. The distribution is uniform 4. Continuous water flow even when the pump stops until the whole stored water is discharged. Please any objections to these assertions? |

In the above example, we dealt with water flow, let's consider signal flow in a circuit. Do you know that motion in a television is a multiple of images(continuous image flow). What happen when the motion is fluctuating? Do you know the source of our power supply (NEPA) fluctuates like the water flow from the pump. If this happens, you find out that the images from your TV set keep dancing and in S-Shape form. This is a practical illustration which you may have noticed. Television is used here for example, this is the case for all the electronics. Capacitor is a storage tank ( buffer) that stores electric charges(water) in an electric field(water pool/swimming pool) The following should be noted a. Charging and discharching (filling and offloading tank) b. Energy storage (water storage) c. Source of electric field ( water pool). So when an electric signal passes through a capacitor, it absorbs the signal until its full and now acts like a new supply source providing a better signal flow(filtered signal). Capacitor is a mini battery in a circuit. I hope I have not confuse anybody |

ytdivine:If I get you correctly, electric signal is used to charge the capacitor? Can the device work when the capacitor is not fully charged? |
Re: Automation Mentorship Class by ytdivine(m): 11:41am On Aug 18, 2023 |
Capacitor is a voltage source Inductor is a current source Capacitor produces electric field Inductor produces magnetic field Note these points very well. You can't know electronics without a deep knowledge of capacitor. Good understanding of capacitor alone can put food on your table. Am not going into capacitor in details but it's a component you cannot do without in this field of automation. To excellent in this field like any other engineering field, you most be good in electronics, the mother of engineering. We shall deal more on capacitor during the second practical class. 1 Like |

Practical class number 2 is capacitor. Note it. |
Re: Automation Mentorship Class by ytdivine(m): 11:54am On Aug 18, 2023 |
The next component which is the foundation of our programming is INDUCTOR. Our PLC programming language is Ladder Logic Language. This language is based on Relay Logic. Relay is based on Inductor. So pay maximum attention here. What is PLC? During interview season, you get amazed by response from job seekers. There is a computer that control all industrial activities. This computer is called PLC, meaning programmable Logic Controller. In advance electronics, you talk about Microprocessor and his elder brother, microcontroller. From this, you get Controller (computer). The one you can program or manipulate a lot is PLC. Hope the point is clear 1 Like |

Southboy: Yes it works, take for example, your LED touch, the moment you on it, it turns on but fades gradually when turns off. The delay is visibly observed in discharging and not during the charging phase 1 Like |

What do you know about an inductor. What happens when a. ac current b. DC current Passes through it |

ytdivine: Well done boss, Thank you for this mentorship class, I hope students and young grad will take advantage of this class seriously because, what he is trying to dish out to you free of charge here, somebody spent #800,000 to 1 million to get this from an institute. I am an electrical engineer by the way and I know what it's like to be a resource person in a department. Hopefully, I would be able to contribute to this as the class progress.

ytdivine: An inductor is an electronic components that temporarily store energy in a magnetic field when a current passes through it. In a dc circuit, an inductor acts like a short circuit when the current is constant. In an ac circuit, an inductor acts like a resistor that depends on the frequency of the ac source. |

Re: Automation Mentorship Class by ytdivine(m): 9:16pm On Aug 19, 2023 |
In a normal life, you cannot separate fire and smoke. Fire produces smoke. So also smoke produces fire. Same way, you cannot separate electric current from magnetic field. Whenever there is flow of electric current on a conductor (Inductor), magnetic field is produced. Also, whenever there is changing magnetic field, an electric current is produced. Any confusion at this point? |
Re: Automation Mentorship Class by ytdivine(m): 9:36pm On Aug 19, 2023 |
Let's consider the type of magnetic field produced by a. AC current b. DC current And their applications. Because ac current is changing ( positive and negative half cycle), you have a magnetic field that builds up and collapses On the other hand, since DC current is not changing, the field produced is fairly constant, does not collapse until the current is removed |
