represented by simple mathematical expressions, and, by using Fourier series, the magnitude of their harmonic components determined, as above For waveforms not in this category, analysis may be achieved by numerical methods Harmonic analysis is the process of resolving a periodic, nonsinusoidal quantity into a series of sinusoidal components of ascending order of frequency The trapezoidal rule can be used to evaluate the Fourier coefficients, which are given by: p an ≈ bn ≈ P P p ∑ yk (19) ∑ yk cos nxk (20) a0 ≈ k؍1 p k؍1 p ∑ yk k؍1 sin nxk (21) Fourier Series 519 Application: A graph

the second harmonic and (9.17 sin 3θ Ϫ 8.17 cos 3θ) comprises the third harmonic It is shown in Chapter that: a sin ωt ϩ b cos ωt ϭ R sin(ωt ϩ α) where a ϭ R cos α, b ϭ R sin α, R ϭ a2 ϩ b2 and α ϭ tanϪ1 b a For the fundamental, R ϭ (Ϫ46.42)2 ϩ (69.66)2 ϭ 83.71 If a ϭ R cos α, then cos α ϭ a −46.42 ϭ which is negative, R 83.71 b 69.66 ϭ which is positive R 83.71 The only quadrant where cos α is negative and sin α is positive is the second quadrant b 69.66 ϭ 123.68Њ or 2.l6 rad Hence, ␣ ϭ tanϪ1 ϭ tanϪ1 Ϫ46.42 a and if b ϭ R sin α, then sin ␣ ϭ Thus, (Ϫ46.42 sin θ ϩ 69.66 cos θ) ϭ 83.71 sin(θ

equation (22) may be re-written as: v ؍17.67 ؉ 83.71 sin( θ ؉ 2.16) ؉ 8.15 sin(2θ ؊ 0.92) ؉ 12.28 siin(3θ ؊ 0.73) volts which is the form normally used with complex waveforms 522 Engineering Mathematics Pocket Book 16.9 Complex waveform considerations It is sometimes possible to predict the harmonic content of a waveform on inspection of particular waveform characteristics If a periodic waveform is such that the area above the horizontal axis is equal to the area below then the mean value is zero Hence a0 ϭ (see Figure 16.14(a)) An even function is symmetrical about the vertical axis and contains no sine terms (see Figure 16.14(b)) An odd function is symmetrical about the origin and contains no cosine terms (see Figure 16.14(c)) f(x) ϭ f(x ϩ π) represents a waveform which repeats after half a cycle and only even harmonics are present (see Figure 16.14(d)) f(x) ϭ Ϫf(x ϩ π) represents a waveform for which the positive and negative cycles are identical in shape and only odd harmonics are present (see Figure 16.14(e)) f(x) f(x) π Ϫπ 2π x a0 ϭ (a) 2π x f(x) π 2π x Ϫ2πϪπ π f(x) π 2π x (d) Contains only even harmonics (c) Contains no cosine terms Ϫπ π (b) Contains no sine

16.15 With reference to Figure 16.15, the following characteristics are noted: (i) The mean value is zero since the area above the θ axis is equal to the area below it Thus the constant term, or d.c component, a0 ϭ (ii) Since the waveform is symmetrical about the origin the function i is odd, which means that there are no cosine terms present in the Fourier series (iii) The waveform is of the form f(θ) ϭ Ϫf(θ ϩ π) which means that only odd harmonics are present Investigating waveform characteristics has thus saved unnecessary calculations and in this case the Fourier series has only odd sine terms present, i.e i ϭ b1 sin θ ϩ b3 sin 3θ ϩ b5 sin 5θ ϩ A proforma, similar to Table 16.1, but without the ‘cosine terms’ columns and without the ‘even sine terms’ columns is shown in Table
