NODE VOLTAGE ANALYSIS:Section 3.2

The Node Voltage Method is based on defining the voltage at each node as an independent variable.

A reference node is selected and all other node voltages are referenced to this node.

The Node Voltage Method defines each branch current in terms of one or more node voltages. This is done by using Ohm’s Law and KCL.

Since branch currents are defined in terms of node voltages, currents do not explicitly enter into the equations.

NODE VOLTAGE ANALYSIS - SUPERNODE:

We use the fact that KCL applies to the currents penetrating this boundary to write a node equation at the supernode.

We then write node equations at the remaining non-reference nodes in the usual way.

We now have regular node equations plus one supernode equation, leaving us one equation short of the N - 1 required. Using the fundamental property of node voltages, we can write; VA - VB = Vs

The voltage source inside the supernode constrains the difference between the node voltages at nodes A and B. The voltage source constraint provides the additional relationship needed to write N - 1 independent equations.

A Supernode is needed when neither the positive nor the negative terminal of a voltage source is connected to the reference node.

MESH CURRENT ANALYSIS:Section 3.3

The Mesh Current Method is based on writing independent mesh current equations with mesh currents as the independent variable.

Each mesh is identified and a direction for the mesh current is selected (e.g. clockwise).

KVL is applied to each mesh containing an unknown mesh current. Using Ohm’s law, the voltage across each resistor is written in terms of one or more mesh currents and a resistance. Since element voltages are defined in terms of mesh currents, voltages do not explicitly enter into the equations as variables.

The equations are solved to find the mesh currents. Individual branch currents are then calculated using the mesh currents.

Grossman/Melkonian

Mesh Current Procedure:

MESH CURRENT ANALYSIS:

1. Identify and label mesh currents for each mesh. Define each mesh current consistently. Typically, mesh currents are defined in the clockwise direction.

2. Apply KVL to each mesh containing an unknown current. Using Ohm’s Law, express the voltages in terms of one or more mesh currents.

3. Solve the linear equations for the mesh currents.

MESH CURRENT ANALYSIS – SUPERMESH:

When a current source is contained in two meshes, we create a Supermesh by excluding the current source and any elements connected in series with the current source.

We write one mesh equation around the supermesh in terms of the currents ia and ib. We then write mesh equations for the

remaining meshes in the usual way.

Grossman/Melkonian

This leaves us one equation short since meshes “a” and “b” are included in the single supermesh equation.

However, one equation is gained by the fundamental property of currents: ia – ib = is

THEVENIN and NORTON CIRCUITS:

Thevenin and Norton circuits deal with the concept of equivalent circuits.

Even the most complicated circuits can be transformed into an equivalent circuit containing a single source and resistor.

When viewed from the load, any network composed of ideal voltage and current sources, and of linear resistors, may be represented by an equivalent circuit consisting of an ideal voltage source VT in series with an equivalent resistance RT.

SOURCE TRANSFORMATION: Source transformation allows for the conversion of an ideal

voltage source in series with a resistor to an ideal current source in parallel with a resistor and vice versa.

As previously seen, any circuit can be transformed to its Thevenin or Norton equivalent circuit at the load resistance RL. Therefore, a voltage source in series with a resistor (Thevenin) can be transformed to a current source in parallel with a resistor (Norton) and the V-I characteristics at the terminals “A” “B” will be the same.
