Driven RLC branch with a parallel shunt resistor
ID: driven-rlc-branch-with-a-parallel-shunt-resistor
An ideal sinusoidal voltage source drives a series branch and a separate resistor in parallel. At the series resonance, the reactive stored energy is , while both resistors together dissipate per cycle. Counting only the series resistor overestimates the stored-energy-to-dissipation ratio by a factor of two.
