electricpy.zdecompose(Zmag, XoR)[source]¶

Impedance Decomposition Function.

A function to decompose the impedance magnitude into its corresponding resistance and reactance using the X/R ratio.

It is possible to “neglect” R, or make it a very small number; this is done by setting the X/R ratio to a very large number (X being much larger than R).

Parameters:¶

Zmag : float¶

The magnitude of the impedance.

XoR : float¶

The X/R ratio (reactance over impedance).

Returns:¶

• R (float) – The resistance (in ohms)

• X (float) – The reactance (in ohms)
