Tel: 210 7586 --- # Analysis Methods -- ## 1-Nodal Analysis ### Unknown: Node Voltages ### Uses Kirchhoff's Current Law -- ## 2-Mesh Analysis ### Unknown: Mesh Currents ### Uses Kirchhoff's Voltage Law --- # Steps for Nodal Analysis ## 1-Choose a reference node (ground). -- ## 2-Label node voltages. -- ## 3-Write KCL equations for each node. -- ## 4-Solve the equations. --- # Steps for Mesh Analysis --- # Steps for Mesh Analysis -- ## 1-Label each mesh in the circuit. -- ## 2- Write KVL equations for each mesh. -- ## 3- Solve equations for the mesh currents. --- # Label each mesh in the circuit -- ## Mesh: a loop which does not contain any other loops within it -- ## It is conventional to use clockwise current direction --- # Write KVL equations for each mesh -- ## Use - sign if you encounter the negative polarity of the voltage source first, use + sign otherwise. --- # Example-1
--- # Example-1 ## Answer: \\(i_1 = 1 A \quad i_2 = 1 A\\)
--- # Example-2
--- # Example-2 ## Answer: \\(i_1 = 2.5 A \quad i_2 = 0 A\\)
--- # Example-3 ## Find \\(I_o\\)
--- # Example-3 ### Answer: \\(i_1 = 2.25 A \quad i_2 = 0.75 A \quad i_3 = 1.5 A\\) ### \\(I_o = i_1 - i_2 = 1.5 A\\)
--- # Example-4 ## Find \\(I_o\\)
--- # Example-4 ### Answer: \\(i_1 = -2.57 A \quad i_2 = -7.71 A \quad i_3 = -4 A\\) ### \\(I_o = i_3 = -4 A\\)
--- # Mesh Analysis with Current Sources ## Similar to Node Analysis with Voltage Sources ## Current Sources reduces the number of unknowns. --- # Example ## Let's solve for i1 and i2 ![](https://raw.githubusercontent.com/ozank/ee281/master/images/supermesh1.png) --- # Supermesh
##Remember: KVL is valid for any closed loop! --- # Example: ### Find mesh currents ![](https://raw.githubusercontent.com/ozank/ee281/master/images/supermesh4.png) --- # Example: ### Find mesh currents ![](https://raw.githubusercontent.com/ozank/ee281/master/images/supermesh3.png) --- # Exercise: ### Find mesh currents ![](https://raw.githubusercontent.com/ozank/ee281/master/images/supermesh5.png) --- # Any questions? ## You can download this presentation from: [keysan.me/ee281](http://keysan.me/ee281)
