I'm back!

Sorry it took so long, but please follow me at my new study/engineering blog smallpowerfullengineer! I even threw up a short post about my gearbox design!

It is really sad coming back to this blog (I can only access it from my old galaxy s2 due to an email fiasco) and seeing that im still getting new followers. I really miss all of you!
If I made a new study blog, would you come over? I could share stuff about the gearbox im designing for a course project.
In other news, third year is really hard!

first of all, thank you so much for 2,000 followers! it’s hard to believe that there are more people interested in the stuff i post than there are in my entire school. thanks so much for making this smol bean very happy!

now, to the point - S T U D Y B L R   A W A R D S

Hi everyone im so sorry about the absense. Tumblr made me reset my password and I dont have access to my email... so I may lose this blog the second my mobile logs out.
I can't explain how much this blog and my other side blog have meant to me. They saw me through my awkward young teens, the ambitious high school years, the downward spiral of demotivation in my first year of uni, and then this past year, this glorious year.
I've still got my fingers crossed that I can stay on this blog, I was just getting to know you all. We'll see what happens.

9th May, 2016 Almost gave up on matrices, but today’s lecture on determinants really gave me hope again ☺️💪🏻👓 Had the most unproductive weekend since the start of semester, but today has been really productive, so maybe I just needed a reboot 😅👍🏻📖✍🏻 Hope your Monday has been a great start to the week as well~

Accompany my boyfriend to study in my favorite library downtown Bangkok, TK Park. His finals are coming up and I really must need to wrap up my maths. Though it was short, it was special. 08.05.2016

May 7th {21/100}

Day 21 of my 100 days of productivity! Today I went back to my psychology notes, reading through them all as well as reading through the revision guide and textbook. I’m aiming to start making flashcards now, as I’ve rewritten all the notes I need so far :) Psych exams are in less than 2 weeks ahhhhh the stress

More Than You Ever Wanted to Know About Electrical Engineering: Balanced Three-Phase Wye-Wye Connections

We’ve been considering the ways in which you can connect a three phase source up to a load. Basically, we have two options: wye or delta. This week we’ll look at how a wye-connected source hooked up to a wye-connected load behaves. So basically, we’ll have a system that looks like this:

Or, drawn in a slightly easier-to-read way:

If this circuit is balanced, a couple of things are true:

  1. Equal current is drawn through all three phases
  2. The neutral line draws no current and we can ignore it in analysis. Practically, speaking, this means we could stick anything in the neutral line and it wouldn’t matter.

Practically, what this means for us right now is that we can analyze one phase and get a result that applies for all of them.

One of the things we’re interested in knowing is the voltage between phases. We know that the line voltages with respect to neutral are:

We can find the line-to-line voltages by subtracting one from another.

We can get the other line-to-line voltages the same way. All together, they look like this:

Each line voltage has a magnitude of the square root of three multiplied by the phase voltage, and they’re all shifted around by 30 degrees from the original phases.

The current in each branch is easy to find by applying Ohm’s Law.

Like the voltages, the currents will all be the same magnitude, but at different phases.

I haven’t posted anything for months -literally, my last original post was back in March- and I feel really sorry about that! The past two months have been really difficult for me, and the amount of work I had and still have to do is unbelievable. Panhellenic exams start in 10 days and I can’t say that I’m ready for them. Anxiety is now definitely starting to kick in, and many health problems occur from that. But I really, really believe that I’m gonna make it safe and sound. My parents seem to be really supportive, and they hopefully won’t make any big deal if I don’t get into the university that I’m now working for. Exams season is probably near for most of us, so keep in mind that you can definitely make it and if you don’t, grades don’t really reflect who you are and what your qualities are. Keep being productive everyone and put always your mental and physical health before your grades!

PS. I don’t usually self promote but I have an Instagram account ( @christinemav )where I post my photography and creations. I’d love it if you could come and see my pictures, and maybe leave a comment there. Thank you!💕

Chemistry notes.🔬 Today it’s raining again YESSS. ☔💙 My cousin invited me to watch a play with her tonight and I really want to go but I feel guilty for going out instead of studying? I’m sure you guys know what I’m talking about. I spent the last weekend studying all day so I feel like I deserve it but I still feel uncomfortable urghh I don’t know.
