Instantaneous Values of Sine Waves (MA194E)
The instantenous value for a sine wave depends on the time on the cycle according the next formula:
Formula:
V = Vp x ( Tv / 100 )
Where:
V is the instantaneous value (voltage, for instance)
Vp is the peak value (voltage, for instance)
Tv is the value found in the next table for the desired phase angle

Application Example:
Determine the instantaneous value of a 300 V (peak) voltage at the phase angle of 32 degrees.
Given:
Vpeak = 300 V
Cx = 32o
Using the formula:
V = Vpeak x Tv/100
Where:
Tv = value found in the table
V = 300 x 52;99/158,97 V
