Value of the Signal for Transient in the Flux

If the flux is constant for t < о and differs from this constant value by 0(t) for t> o; i. e.,

ф(0 = фо

for t<0

ф(0 = ф0 + 0(t)

for t>o,

(3-47)

then the expected value of the signal from an a-c system is, from Equations (3-38) and (3-47),

The application of Equation (3-48) to an actual case is usually quite difficult, leading to a large quantity of algebraic manipulation during which mistakes are very probable. An alternative method, that lends itself to some approximation and considerable simplification, is as follows.

Equation (3-49) is used to obtain the expected value of voltage at the input to the integrating circuit. This expression is replaced by a simpler one that should give essentially the same output; a knowledge of the properties of integrating circuits is useful here. This simpler expres­sion is then vised as the driving function in the differential Equation (3-2) of the integrating circuit to obtain the expected value of the signal, <S(t)> . Examples of this procedure are included in Subsection 3. 2. If an exact answer is desired, use either Equation (3-48), or Equations (3-49) and (3-2) with no approximations.
