This discussion about ideal sources and power absorption would be rather
amazing if I hadn't seen so much of the long sad history of this whole thread. It's just another diversion to deflect the discussion away from some of the sticky problems with alternative theories. It looks like Cecil could benefit from momentarily abandoning his power waves, virtual reflections, photons, s parameters, and constructive interference, and go back to basic first or second semester electric circuit theory. Connect an ideal voltage source to a series RL or RC -- all elements lumped, not distributed. Find the power P(t) at each of the three nodes. (It's easy. Just calculate v(t) and i(t) and multiply the two.) Remember that the sign of P(t) shows the direction of energy flow. If I had the patience and self-control to participate in this endless thread (and I admittedly have neither), I'd refuse to say another word about it until Cecil shows that he knows what the power waveforms are at those three nodes. Why argue with someone about distributed networks who hasn't mastered lumped circuit analysis? Roy Lewallen, W7EL |
