Such methods are usually restricted to fairly simple circuits and include Kirchhoff's laws, loop analysis, Nodal analysis, superposition theorem, Compensation theorem and Reciprocity theorem etc. (ii) Network Reduction Method- Here, the original network is converted into a much simpler equivalent circuit for rapid calculation of different quantities. It can be applied to simple as well as complicated networks. Examples are: Delta/Star and Star/Delta conversions, Thevenin's theorem and Norton's Theorem etc. Electrical Engineering Department By Abdullahi Yusuf Sada Faculty of Engineering Baze University Abuja Source Transformation An equivalent circuit is one whose v-I characteristics are identical with the original circuit. There are 2 types of sources; voltage and current sources. They can either be dependent(value of V/I depend on the amount of V/I elsewhere in the circuit) or independent(voltage/current is fixed) Source transformation is the process of replacing a voltage source VS in series with a resistor R by a current source IS in parallel with a resistor R, or vice versa. Electrical Engineering Department By Abdullahi Yusuf Sada Faculty of Engineering Baze University Abuja Source Transformation Electrical Engineering Department By Abdullahi Yusuf Sada Faculty of Engineering Baze University Abuja Example: Replace the given network with a single current source and a resistor. Electrical Engineering Department By Abdullahi Yusuf Sada Faculty of Engineering Baze University Abuja Electrical Engineering Department By Abdullahi Yusuf Sada Faculty of Engineering Baze University Abuja Mesh Analysis Used for analyzing circuits using mesh currents as circuit variables Steps for determining mesh currents 1. Obtain the number of meshes m 2. Assign mesh currents to the meshes i.e., i1, i2, …, im Choose current flow direction to be clockwise for convenience (could be anti- clockwise). 3. Define voltage drop polarities based on the direction in each mesh. 4. Apply KVL to each of the m meshes and use Ohm’s Law to express the voltages in terms of mesh currents. 5. Solve the simultaneous equations to obtain unknown mesh currents Electrical Engineering Department By Abdullahi Yusuf Sada Faculty of Engineering Baze University Abuja Mesh Analysis Note A circuit with fewer nodes than meshes is better analyzed using nodal analysis, while a circuit with fewer meshes than nodes is better analyzed using mesh analysis. You can use one method to check your results of the other method.

Obtain the number of nodes n 2. Select a node as reference node (usually the ground node) and assign voltages to the remaining nodes i.e., v1, v2, …, vn-1 Ground node is assumed to have 0 potential. 3. Apply KCL to each of the non-reference nodes and use Ohm’s Law to obtain branch currents in terms of node voltages. 4. Solve the simultaneous equations to obtain unknown node voltages. Electrical Engineering Department By Abdullahi Yusuf Sada Faculty of Engineering Baze University Abuja Nodal Analysis Note Current flows from a higher potential to a lower potential in a resistor. If a voltage source is connected between the reference node and a non-reference node, the voltage at the non- reference node is the same as that of the voltage source.

However, such complicated networks can be simplified by successively replacing delta meshes by equivalent star system and vice versa. Electrical Engineering Department By Abdullahi Yusuf Sada Faculty of Engineering Baze University Abuja A Star (or Wye) connection has one end of each resistor connected together and the other end of the resistor left open for external connections. This connection looks like the letter Y. A Delta connection has each resistor end connected end-to-end to form a closed loop. The connection looks like the Greek letter Delta (Δ).

Norton’s theorem; aids in simplification; multiple sources and resistances can be represented by an equivalent circuit with a single current source and a single resistor. Electrical Engineering Department By Abdullahi Yusuf Sada Faculty of Engineering Baze University Abuja Superposition Theorem. “In a linear circuit with more than one source, the voltage across (or current through) an element is the algebraic sum of the voltage across (or current through) that element due to each independent source acting alone”. ‘’ the total current in any part of a linear circuit equals the algebraic sum of the currents produced by each source separately Electrical Engineering Department By Abdullahi Yusuf Sada Faculty of Engineering Baze University Abuja Superposition Theorem Steps for applying Superposition Theorem 1. Turn off (set to zero) all independent sources except one source. 2. Find the output (voltage or current) due to that source by using any method of analysis 3. Repeat steps 1 and 2 for all other sources 4. Find the total contribution by adding the contributions of the independent sources Electrical Engineering Department By Abdullahi Yusuf Sada Faculty of Engineering Baze University Abuja Superposition Theorem Example: use superposition theorem to find voltage vR2 Electrical Engineering Department By Abdullahi Yusuf Sada Faculty of Engineering Baze University Abuja Superposition Theorem Turn off one source. The order does not matter, we kill the current by open circuit. From voltage divider rule, Back to the original circuit and short circuit the voltage source Electrical Engineering Department By Abdullahi Yusuf Sada Faculty of Engineering Baze University Abuja Superposition Theorem Back to the original circuit and short circuit the voltage source From current divider rule, The answer is the sum (superposition) of the partial answers Electrical Engineering Department By Abdullahi Yusuf Sada Faculty of Engineering Baze University Abuja 2. Find the current through resistor R2, using superposition theorem Electrical Engineering Department By Abdullahi Yusuf Sada Faculty of Engineering Baze University Abuja Thevenin’s Theorem Thevenin Theorem: “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 vequiv in series with an equivalent resistance Requiv.” Load Load Electrical Engineering Department By Abdullahi Yusuf Sada Faculty of Engineering Baze University Abuja Thevenin’s Theorem Steps for obtaining Thevenin Equivalent of a circuit Open circuit the terminals A–B (remove the load resistance) of the given circuit Calculate the open circuit voltage VAB seen at the terminals A and B Remove (kill) all the sources in the circuit. Calculate the equivalent resistance RAB = Requiv seen at the terminals A and B Replace the entire network by a single Thevenin source, whose voltage is Vth and whose internal resistance is Rth. Connect RL back to its terminals from where it was previously removed. Finally, calculate the current flowing through RL by using the equation. I = Vth/(Rth + RL) Electrical Engineering Department By Abdullahi Yusuf Sada Faculty of Engineering Baze University Abuja Thevenin’s Theorem Example: find the Thevenin equivalent of the circuit below with R2 as the load Electrical Engineering Department By Abdullahi Yusuf Sada Faculty of Engineering Baze University Abuja Thevenin’s Theorem Temporarily remove the load resistance and obtain VTh and RTh as seen from the load The circuit is now in series and voltage supplied is 28 V – 7 V = 21 V, while resistance is R1 + R3 = 5 Ohm. From Ohm’s law, V = IR and I = V/R = 4.2 A. Hence, voltage drop at R1 = 4.2 × 4 = 16.8 V. Electrical Engineering Department By Abdullahi Yusuf Sada Faculty of Engineering Baze University Abuja Thevenin’s Theorem Since sum of voltage drops = 0, voltage between the points can be computed from one source and load resistance = 28 - 16.8 - VTh = 0. Hence, VTh = 11.2 V For RTh, R1 and R3 are in parallel = R1||R3 = 0.8 Ohm The Thevenin equivalent of the circuit is given as (b) + - + - + - (a) (b) Electrical Engineering Department By Abdullahi Yusuf Sada Faculty of Engineering Baze University Abuja Thevenin’s Theorem Example: find the Thevenin equivalent of the circuit below with RL as the load, as well as the load current and voltage. Electrical Engineering Department By Abdullahi Yusuf Sada Faculty of Engineering Baze University Abuja Thevenin’s Theorem Temporarily remove the load resistance and obtain VTh and RTh as seen from the load 12 Ohm and 4 Ohm resistors are in series because current will not flow across the 8 Ohm resistor since it is open. From Ohm’s law, V = IR and I = V/R = 48/(12+4) = 3 A. Hence, voltage drop at 4 Ohm resistor = 3 X 4 = 12 V. Although no current through 8 Ohm resistor, 12 V flows across it because it is in parallel with 4 Ohm resistor. Therefore, VTH = VAB = 12 V Electrical Engineering Department By Abdullahi Yusuf Sada Faculty of Engineering Baze University Abuja Thevenin’s Theorem Temporarily remove short voltage source 8 Ohm resistor is in series with a parallel combination of 12 Ohm and 4 Ohm resistors, i.e., 8 + (12 || 4) = 11 Ohm. Hence, RTH = 11 Ohm. Electrical Engineering Department By Abdullahi Yusuf Sada Faculty of Engineering Baze University Abuja Thevenin’s Theorem The Thevenin equivalent is given as From Ohm’s law, current across load resistor = IL = VTH/(RTH + RL) = 12/16 = 0.75 A VL = IL X RL = 0.75 X 5 = 3.75 V Electrical Engineering Department By Abdullahi Yusuf Sada Faculty of Engineering Baze University Abuja norTon’s Theorem Whereas Thevenin’s theorem reduces a two-terminal active network of linear resistances and emf’s to an equivalent constant-voltage source and series resistance, Norton's theorem replaces the network by an equivalent constant- current source and a parallel resistance. Load Electrical Engineering Department By Abdullahi Yusuf Sada Faculty of Engineering Baze University Abuja norTon’s Theorem Norton’s theorem “Any 2-terminal active network containing voltage sources and resistance when viewed from its output terminals is equivalent to a constant-current source and a parallel resistance”. Iequiv Requiv Load Load Electrical Engineering Department By Abdullahi Yusuf Sada Faculty of Engineering Baze University Abuja norTon’s Theorem Steps for obtaining Norton’s Equivalent of a circuit Remove the resistance (if any) across the two given terminals and put a short-circuit across them. Compute the short-circuit current Isc. Remove all voltage sources but retain their internal resistances, if any. Similarly, remove all current sources and replace them by open-circuits. find the resistance RN of the network as looked into from the given terminals. The current source (Isc) joined in parallel across RN between the two terminals gives Norton's equivalent circuit.

Electrical Engineering Department By Abdullahi Yusuf Sada Faculty of Engineering Baze University Abuja norTon’s Theorem Temporarily short the load and obtain Ishort The 8 Ω and 4 Ω resistors are in parallel and in series with 12 Ω resistor Total resistance, RT = (8||4) + 12 = 14.67Ω. 𝑉 48 Current in the circuit is, 𝐼𝑇 = = = 3.27𝐴 𝑅𝑇 14.67 Current flowing through 8 Ω resistor is the same as Ishort or INorton and it can be found by 4 current divider rule, i.e., 𝐼𝑁𝑜𝑟𝑡𝑜𝑛 = 𝐼𝑇 𝑥 = 1.09𝐴 4+8 Electrical Engineering Department By Abdullahi Yusuf Sada Faculty of Engineering Baze University Abuja norTon’s Theorem Short voltage source and open load resistor Obtain RN by looking at the circuit from the open circuit point It can be seen that the 8 Ω resistor is in series with a parallel combination of the 4 Ω and 12 Ω resistors Hence, RN = 8 + (12||4) = 11 Ω. Electrical Engineering Department By Abdullahi Yusuf Sada Faculty of Engineering Baze University Abuja norTon’s Theorem The Norton equivalent of the circuit is given as IN 5Ω 1.09 A 11 Ω We can find the current through the 5 Ω resistor through current divider rule, i.e., IL = IN X RN/(RN + RL) = 1.09 X 11/(11+5) = 0.75 A We can find the load voltage from Ohm’s law, VL = IL X RL = 0.75 X 5 = 3.75 V Electrical Engineering Department By Abdullahi Yusuf Sada
