An agenda is a list of meeting activities in the order in which they are to be taken up,
beginning with the call to order and ending with adjournment.

Kirchhoff's Law
01 Kirchhoff's current law (1st Law) states that current flowing into a
node (or a junction) must be equal to current flowing out of it.

Maxwell's Mesh Equations


02 An easier method of solving the above circuit is by
using Mesh Current Analysis or Loop Analysiswhich is also
sometimes called Maxwell´s Circulating Currents method.

Thevenin's Theorem
03 Thevenin’s Theorem states that it is possible to simplify any linear
circuit, no matter how complex, to an equivalent circuit with just a
single voltage source and series resistance connected to a load.

Kirchhoff’s Law
! Contents Here

Kirchhoffs Circuit Laws allow us to solve complex circuit problems by


defining a set of basic network laws and theorems for the voltages
and currents around a circuit

Here, the three currents entering the node, I1, I2, I3 are all positive in
value and the two currents leaving the node, I4 and I5 are negative in
value. Then this means we can also rewrite the equation as;

I1 + I2 + I3 – I4 – I5 = 0

Kirchhoff’s Law PROBLEM

Let's number the currents from left to right: I1, I2,


and I3, respectively. Assume that the current will
flow clockwise in the left circuit and counter
clockwise in the right circuit; that is,
that I1 and I3 are running up the page and
that I2 is running down the page. Apply
Kirchhoff's rules and see what happens.
Kirchhoff’s Law PROBLEM
Solve using the methods of linear algebra. (We'll
omit the units for clarity.)

Continue until each current has been found.

I1 = +2.00 A I2 = +1.50 A I3 = −0.50 A


The negative value of I3 means that current is running down the page, not up as we
assumed. This shows the self-correcting nature of Kirchhoff's rules.

Mesh Current Analysis is a technique used to find the currents


circulating around a loop or mesh with in any closed path of a circuit.

One simple method of reducing the amount of math’s involved is to analyse


the circuit using Kirchhoff’s Current Law equations to determine the
currents, I1 and I2 flowing in the two resistors. Then there is no need to
calculate the current I3 as its just the sum of I1 and I2. So Kirchhoff’s
second voltage law simply becomes:

Equation No 1 : 10 = 50I1 + 40I2


Equation No 2 : 20 = 40I1 + 60I2

therefore, one line of math’s calculation have been saved.

Thevenin’s Theorem
! Contents Here

Thevenin theorem is an analytical method used to


change a complex circuit into a simple equivalent
circuit consisting of a single resistance in series with a
source voltage

Thevenin’s Theorem states that “Any linear circuit


containing several voltages and resistances can be
replaced by just one single voltage in series with a single
resistance connected across the load“. In other words, it
is possible to simplify any electrical circuit, no matter how
complex, to an equivalent two-terminal circuit with just a
single constant voltage source in series with a resistance
(or impedance) connected to a load as shown below.

Thevenin’s Theorem PROBLEM
Firstly, to analyse the circuit we have to remove the centre 40Ω load resistor
connected across the terminals A-B, and remove any internal resistance
associated with the voltage source(s). This is done by shorting out all the
voltage sources connected to the circuit, that is v = 0, or open circuit any
connected current sources making i = 0. The reason for this is that we want to
have an ideal voltage source or an ideal current source for the circuit analysis.

The value of the equivalent resistance, Rs is found by calculating the total


resistance looking back from the terminals A and B with all the voltage sources
shorted. We then get the following circuit.

Find the Equivalent Resistance (Rs)

The voltage Vs is defined as the total voltage across the terminals A and B when
there is an open circuit between them. That is without the load resistor RL
connected.
Thevenin’s Theorem PROBLEM
Find the Equivalent Voltage (Vs)
We now need to reconnect the two voltages back into the
circuit, and as VS = VAB the current flowing around the loop
is calculated as:

Then the Thevenin’s Equivalent circuit would consist or a series resistance of 6.67Ω and a voltage source of
13.33v. With the 40Ω resistor connected back into the circuit we get:
