Loop vs. Mesh in Electrical Networks

A loop in a circuit is a closed path, while a mesh is a loop that cannot be divided further. Thevenin's theorem allows any linear bilateral network to be replaced by a single voltage source and impedance, while Norton's theorem does the same with a current source. The maximum power transfer theorem states that maximum power is transferred to a load when its impedance is the complex conjugate of the source impedance.

Distinguish between a Loop & Mesh of a circuit (DEC, ’10) The closed path

of a network is called a Loop. An elementary form of a loop which cannot


be further divided is called a mesh. In other words Mesh is closed path
does not contain an other loop within it. 14. State Thevenins theorem.
(NOV 14) It states that any linear bilateral network can be replaced by a
single current source VTH, in series with single impedance Zth 15. State
Norton’s theorem It states that any linear bilateral network can be
replaced by a single current source, in parallel with single impedance Zth.
16. State maximum power transfer theorem. Max power is transferred to
load impedance if the load impedance is the complex conjugate of the
source impedance. 17. Sate superposition theorem. It states that the
response of a linear circuit with multiple sources is given by algebraic sum
of response due to individual sources acting alone. 18. State the steps to
solve the super position theorem.  Take only one independent voltage or
current source.  Obtain the branch currents.  Repeat the above for other
sources.  To determine the net branch current just add the current
obtained above. 19. State the steps to solve the Thevenin’s Theorem 
Remove the load resistance and find the open circuit voltage Voc 
Deactivate the constant sources (fro voltage source remove it by internal
resistance & for current source delete the source by OC) and find the
internal resistance (RTH) of the source side looking through the open
circuited load terminals  Obtain the thevenin’s equivalent circuit by
connecting VOC in series with RTh  Reconnect the load resistance across
the load terminals. Ans: 7I1 – 2I2 =10 2I1-12I2=0 20. State the steps to
solve the Norton’s theorem.  Remove the load resistor and find the
internal resistance of the source N/W by deactivating the constant source.
 Short the load terminals and find the short circuit current  Norton’s
equivalent circuit is drawn by keeping RTH in parallel with ISC IL= ([Link])
/ (Rth+RL) 21. Write some applications of maximum power transfer
theorem.  Power amplifiers  Communication system  Microwave
transmission
