6 Network Analysis using Series/Parallel Equialents. Begin by locating a combination of resistances that are in series or parallel. Often the place to start is farthest from the source.. edraw the circuit with the equialent resistance for the combination found in step.. epeat steps and until the circuit is reduced as far as possible. Often end with a single source and a single resistance.. Sole for the currents and oltages in the final equialent circuit. Transfer esults to Backward until Original Circuit Network Analysis : The process of determining the Current, Voltage & Power for each element gien in Circuit & Element Values

12 Current Diision i i i i total total For two resistance in parallel, the fraction of the total current flowing in a resistance is the ratio of the other resistance to sum of the two resistance (Two esistors Case) Current Diision Principle

13 Application of the Current-Diision Principle i eq 0 60 Ω eq i s eq 0A

14 Position Transducer Based on Voltage-Diision Principle o s Kθ Typical Knob in Electrical System based on Analog Signal such as Amplifier, Adjustable Light, Volume

15 Series Sources Ideal independent oltage sources in series add algebraically I V V V V n I - V Note : Parallel Voltage Sources are not esolable. WHY?

16 Parallel Sources Ideal independent current sources in parallel add algebraically I T V I n _ I I I Note : Series current sources are not resolable. WHY?

17 Example and are effectiely open circuited and therefore can be omitted 7 and 8 are short circuited, and can be omitted I and I are Algebraically added because they are in Series. V and V are Algebraically added because they are in Parallel and are in Series & 5 & 6 are in Parallel

18 Although they are ery important concepts, series/parallel equialents and the current/oltage diision principles are not sufficient to sole all circuits.

19 Wye - Delta Transformations - Need to find equialent resistance to determine current. - HOW? - (They are not in series, not in parallel) Use Y to transformation

22 Y Transformation : Not Enough for All Circuits With Voltage Source With Dependent Source

23 Node-Voltage Analysis. Select eference Node. Assign Node Voltages If the reference node is chosen at one end of an independent oltage source, one node oltage is known at the start, and fewer need to be computed.. Write Network Equations. -First, usekcl to write current equations for nodes and supernodes. (Write as many current equations as you can without using all of the nodes.) - If not hae enough equations because of oltage sources between nodes, (use KVL to write additional equations) - If the circuit contains dependent sources, Find expressions for the controlling ariables in terms of the node oltages. Substitute into the network equations Obtain equations haing only the node oltages as unknowns.. Sole for the Node Voltages. (Equation in standard form) 5. Calculate currents or oltages of interest. with the node oltages from Step

24 Select eference Node & Assign Node Voltage Node : Two More Circuit Elements are Joined Together eference Node : Node with Known & eferencing Voltage Ground Symbol : Zero Voltage - Typically eference Node is set to be Ground Symbol - Negatie Polarity to eference Node

25 Assign Element Unknown Voltages - Assign Node Voltage across, & - Use KVL In In y x In z

28 Tips on KCL Equation Writing - Writing KCL Node not Connected to Voltage Source (note : Supernode) - Direction of Current from Node : Positie (Node Voltage of Interest Node Voltage Surrounding ) / esistance Current Output from Node of Interest to Node Surrounding - Sum of All Currents from Surrounding Nodes At Node Node Node Node Ground Node Node 0

32 KCL Equations with Voltage & Current Sources 0 Node V 6. 9V 0 Node Node : Not Writing KCL on, because of Voltage Source Same Logic for Current & Voltage Sources Containing Circuit

33 Circuits with Voltage Sources Supernode Supernode When a Voltage Source is connected between Nodes, KCL can not be written at Nodes because both Current & esistance are not defined in Voltage Source Aboe Circuit can not Write KCL, because All node are connected to Voltage Sources The Net Current flowing through any closed surface must equal to Zero Supernode : Combination of Node including Voltage Sources If Write KCL equations with All Node & Supernodes ( 5) ( 5) Supernode 0 ( 5) ( 5) Supernode 0 Dependant Eqns Use KVL at Supernode

36 Node-Voltage Analysis with a Dependent Source First, write KCL equations at each node, including the current of the controlled source just as if it were an ordinary current source. i s i x 0 0 i x

37 Substitution yields i s 0 0 Next, find an expression for the controlling ariable i x in terms of the node oltages. i x Solable!

39 Mesh-Current Analysis. Define the Mesh Currents (usually a clockwise direction) If necessary, redraw the network without crossing conductors or elements.. Write Network equations ( # of equations # of mesh currents). - Use KVL for meshes with no current sources. - If current sources, write expressions for their currents in terms of the mesh currents. - If common current source to two meshes, Use KVL for Supermesh. - If dependent sources, Find expressions for the controlling ariables Substitute into the network equations, Obtain equations haing only the mesh currents as unknowns.. Sole for the mesh currents (Standard form equation). Calculate any other currents or oltages of interest.
