Ok ron H your calculations are correct but i believe that the real rms voltage is just the value of the DC voltage because always the rms voltage calculations give a bit greater value that the same calculations for the average voltage value , in this case the rms should be the same as the average what do you think?
also the simulation uses these calculations to calculate the rms
check this 4, 5, 6, 7 the average is (4+5+6+7)/4=5.5
the rms = sqrt((4^2+5^2+6^2+7^2)/4) = 5.56
What does this mean? Do you think squares and square roots are just approximations? The squares are the reason for the difference. It's not an error. There really is a difference.the result should be the same but there is a small difference because of the squares
OK, try this out:
(10+30+50+70)/4=40
sqrt((10^2+30^2+50^2+70^2)/4)=45.8
Only an 11% error.
