1. State and explain linearity theorem and superposition theorem

LINEARITY THEOREM:

5
SENGUNTHAR ENGINEERING COLLEGE –T CODE/EC1151 /CA/U2

Statement: for any linear circuit, any output voltage or current is


related linearity to the independent sources present in the circuit.

Explanation: the linearity theorem is the base of superposition


theorem.

Consider the network shown in fig. there are three independent


sources V1, I1, and V2.

Let the output variable is denoted as P where it is a voltage across


or current through any branch of the network. Then according to the
linearity theorem, the output is related linearity to the source V1, I1, and
V2. Thus mathematically

Output P = a1V1 + a1I1 + a3V2

Where a1, a2 and a3 are properly dimensioned constants

In general if there are m independent sources as V1, V2, ………..,


Vm then the output P which is current or voltage is

P = a1u1 + a2u2 + …………….. + am um.

Where a1, a2, ……………., am are constant.

Note: the set of equations obtained before, using mesh analysis and node
analysis for various circuits represent the linearity theorem.

SUPERPOSITION THEOREM:

6
SENGUNTHAR ENGINEERING COLLEGE –T CODE/EC1151 /CA/U2

This theorem is applicable for linear and bilateral networks.

Statement:
“In any multi source complex network consisting of linear
bilateral elements, the voltage across or current through, any given
element of network is equal to the sum of individual voltages or
currents, produced independently across or in that element by each
source acting independently, when all the remaining sources are
replaced by their respective internal impedances.”

If the internal impedance of sources are unknown then the


independent voltage sources must be replaced by short circuit, while
independent current sources must be replaced by open circuit.

Of there are dependent current and voltage sources present in the


circuit then such dependent source should not be replaced by open and
short circuit and must be kept as it is . Such sources have zero value,
only when voltage or current controlling then is zero.

Let source E1 < is acting independently.

1. At this time the other sources must be replaced by internal


impedances/ but as internal impedance of E2 is not given, the
source E2 must be replaced by short circuit as shown in fig.
2. Then find IAB by using reduction techniques.

7
SENGUNTHAR ENGINEERING COLLEGE –T CODE/EC1151 /CA/U2

Case (i):

1. Now consider other soured E2 alone


2. Replace E1 by short circuit to obtain current through the branch
A-B
3. The find IAB” by using network reduction techniques.

Case (ii):
Total IAB = IAB’ due to E1 + IAB”due to E2.

Step to analysis superposition theorem:

1. Select a single source acting alone. Short the other voltage sources
and open the current sources, if internal impedances are not
known. If known, replace them by internal impedances.
2. Find the current through or voltage across the required element,
due to the source under consideration, using suitable network
reduction technique.
3. Repeat the above 2 steps for all sources.
4. Add all individual effects produced by individual sources, to
obtain the total current or voltage across the element.

2. State and Explain Thevenin’s theorem and Norton’s theorem.

THEVININ’S THEOREM:

Statement:

8
SENGUNTHAR ENGINEERING COLLEGE –T CODE/EC1151 /CA/U2

Any combination of linear bilateral circuit elements and active


sources, regardless of the connection or complexity, connected to a given
load ZL, may be replaced by simple Z terminal network consists of
single voltage source of Vth volts and single impedance Zeq in series
with voltage soured, across the two terminals of load ZL.

Vth = open circuit voltage measured at 2 terminals with load


impedance removed. This voltage is called Thevenin’s equivalent
voltage.

Explanation:

1. The terminals A-B are the terminals where load impedance ZL is


connected. The thevenin’s equivalent across the load terminals A-
B is shown in fig. (i) .(b)
2. The vth is the voltage obtained across the terminals A-B, when ZL
is removed, hence it is an open circuit voltage as shown in fig (ii)
(a)

9
SENGUNTHAR ENGINEERING COLLEGE –T CODE/EC1151 /CA/U2

3. While Zeq is equivalent impedance through terminals A-B, with


ZL removed and voltage sources replaced by short circuit and
current sources by open circuit.

4. For obtaining Vth, any of the network simplification can be used


5. when circuit is replaced thevenin’s equivalent across the load
terminals, then

I L = VTH∕ZL + Zeq

By using this theorem, current through any branch of circuit can be


obtained.

Step to apply thevenins theorem:

1. remove the branch impedance, through which current is required


to be calculated
2. calculate the voltage across these open circuited terminals, by
using any of the network simplification techniques this voltage is
thevenins equivalent voltage VTH
3. Calculate the equivalent impedance Zeq, as viewed through the
two terminals of the branch from which the current is to be
calculated by removing that branch impedance and replacing all
that independent sources by their internal impedances.
4. draw the thevenins equivalent showing the voltage sourceVTH ,
with the impedance Zeq in series within, across the terminals of
branch through which the current is to be calculated. Reconnect
the branch impedance id let it be ZL . the required I thro the
branch is given by

10
SENGUNTHAR ENGINEERING COLLEGE –T CODE/EC1151 /CA/U2

I = VTH∕ZL + Zeq

Limitation of thevenins theorem:

The limitation of thevenins theorem is


1. Not applicable to the circuits consisting of non linear elements
2. Not applicable to unilateral networks.
3. There should not be magnetic coupling between the load and
circuit, to be replaced by thevenins theorem.
4. In the load side, there should not be controlled sources, controlled
from some other part of circuit.

NORTON’S THEOREM:

“Any linear active network with output terminals A, B as shown


in fig can be replaced by a single current source Isc (= IN) in parallel
with a single impedance

ZTH = (Zn) = Rth = (RTH)

Isc = current through terminals AB of active network when


shorted

Zth = thevenins impedance.

11
SENGUNTHAR ENGINEERING COLLEGE –T CODE/EC1151 /CA/U2

The current thro impedance RL which is connected to the


terminals of Nortons equivalent circuit must have the dame direction as
current thro the same impedance connected to original active network

RL = IL = (Is x Rth) ∕ (Rth + RL)

4. State and prove the maximum power transfer theorem.

For a passive network connected to an active network consisting


of current and voltage sources and linear bilateral passive elements,
when the passive network load consists of
1. variable resistance only
2. variable resistance and variable reactance

MAXIMUM POWER TRANSFER THEOREM:

Statement:
In an active network, maximum power transfer to the load takes
place when the network as viewed from the terminals of load.
This statement depends upon the conditions of the circuit.
Case (i):Purely resistive circuit and load resistance is variable:

Statement:
“Maximum power will be delivered from a voltage source to a
load, when the load resistance is equal to the internal resistance of
source”

12
SENGUNTHAR ENGINEERING COLLEGE –T CODE/EC1151 /CA/U2

Let Vg = general voltage source


Rg = internal resistance
RL = load resistance

When power transferred to load is maximum (i.e ) RL = Rg

Total resistance R = Rg + RL = RL + RL =2RL

Load current IL= Vg∕2RL


Power delivered to RL = IL2RL
= (Vg∕2RL)2 x RL

Pmax = Vg2 ∕4RL

Under this condition the efficiency is only 50%. Since one-half of total
power generated is lost in dissipation with in the source.
Note:
1. Imax & Pmax will not takes place for same value of RL
2. I id max when RL = 0; Imax = Vg∕Rg.
3. Power transfer is max when RL = Rg.
4. Current at max power is 50% of max current.

Case (ii): If reactance present, and load resistance and reactance can be
independently varied.

Statement:
“Maximum power will be delivered from a voltage source to a
load when the load impedance is complex conjugate of source
impedance.”
Hence in this case RG and RL are replaced by Zg and ZL
respectively

13
SENGUNTHAR ENGINEERING COLLEGE –T CODE/EC1151 /CA/U2

Zg = internal impedance of the source.


Zg = Rg + jXg
ZL = load impedance = RL + jXL
XL = load reactance but not inductive reactance
According to maximum power transfer theorem

ZL = complex conjugate of Zg = Rg + j Xg

Hence when the power transfer is maximum the total impedance = 2RL

Case (iii): reactance’s present, but only the magnitude of load


impedance can be varied

Statement:
“Maximum power is delivered from a voltage source of the load
when the magnitude of the load impedance is equal to the magnitude of
source impedance.
Let be the angle of load impedance

ZL =
= ZL cos + j Z L sin
P = (Vg2 cos ) ∕ ((Rg + cos )2+ (Xg + sin )2)
For maximum power transfer

dp∕d =0
using this calculation and simplifying the above equation we get 3
Rg2 + Xg2 = 2
on =

1. State linearity theorem:


For any linear resistive circuit, any output voltage or current is
related linearity to the independent sources present in circuit. The
linearity theorem based of super position theorem.

14
SENGUNTHAR ENGINEERING COLLEGE –T CODE/EC1151 /CA/U2

2. State Superposition theorem:


“in any multisource complex network consisting of linearity
bilateral elements, the voltage of across or current through, any given
element of network is equal to the sum of individual voltages or currents
produced independently across or in that element by each source acting
independently, when all the remaining sources are replaced by their
respective internal impedance “

3. State Thevenins theorem:


Any combination of linear bilateral circuit elements and active
source, regardless of the connection or complexity connected to a given
load ZL, may be replaced by simple 2 terminal network consists of single
voltage source of VTH volts and a single impedance Zeq in series with
voltage VL.

4. State Norton’s theorem:


Any linear active network with output terminals AB as shown in
fig can be replaced by a single current source ISC = IN in parallel with
single impedance

ZTN = Zn = RTH = RN

5. State Maximum power transfer theorem:


In an active network, maximum power transfer to the load takes
place when the load impedance is the complex conjugate of an
equivalent impedance of the network as viewed from the terminals of
load.

PROBLEMS

1. For the circuit shown in fig verify the linearity theorem for the
voltage across 100 resistance.

Solution:

Assume the node voltage at A as VA and base node is B.


Apply KCL at node A.

-I1 – I2 – I3 = 0

I1 + I 2 + I 3 = 0 ……………………………………………………….(1)

16
SENGUNTHAR ENGINEERING COLLEGE –T CODE/EC1151 /CA/U2

Now, I1 = (VA – V1)∕150

I2 = VA∕100

I3 = (VA – V2)∕75

Sub in eqn (1)

((VA –V1)∕150) + (VA∕100 )+ ((VA + V2)∕75) = 0

VA [6.66 x 10-3 +0.01 + 0.01333] = 6.66 x 10-3 V1 + 0.01333 V2

VA = 6.66 x 10-3 V1 + 0.0133 V2 = 0.022 V1 + 0.4443 V2 ……….(2)

The voltage across 100 resistance is VA and V1,V2 are source hence
eqn (2) shows. The independent sources V1 and V2 with 0.022 and
0.4943are the constants.

VA = a1 V1 + a2 V2

This verifies the linearity theorem.

2. Calculate the current through 2 resistance of the network shown in


fig using superposition theorem.

Solution:

= -56 + 16j +( 5-j2)2

= -56 +16j + 25 + 4 – 2 x5 x 2j

= -56 + 16j +25 + 4 -20j

= -35 -4j

D = 35.227

We want current through 2 i.e. I2 hence calculating D2 only

D2 = = -5 ( 5-2 j) = -25 + 10 j

I2 = D2∕D = 26.925 ∕35.227

I2 = 0.672 – j 0.331.67

I1 ( -j 2 + 5 + 3 + j 2 ) + I2 ( j 2 – 5) = j 10

19
SENGUNTHAR ENGINEERING COLLEGE –T CODE/EC1151 /CA/U2

8I1 + ( -5 + j 2 ) I2 = j 10 ………………………………….(1)

loop2:

5 ( I2 + I1 ) – j 2 ( I2 + I1 ) + 2I2 = j 10

I1 ( 5 – j 2 ) + I2 ( 7 – j 2 ) = j 10 …………………………(2)

From Equation (1) and (2)

D= =

= 8(7 - j2) – ( -5 +j2)(5 – j2)

= 56 - 16j + (5-j2)2

= 56 -16j – 25 + 4 – 2 x5 x 2j

= 56 - 16j -25 + 4 +20j

= 35 +4j

D = 35.227

D2 = = 80j – j10 ( 5 – j2)

= 80 j – 50 j +20 j2

= 80 j – 50 j -20 = 30 j – 20

D2= 36.055

I2 = D2 ∕ D = 36.055 ∕35.227

= 1.023

I2 = 1.023 -0.467 + j 0.91 A

According to the super position theorem, current through 2 resistance


is

SENGUNTHAR ENGINEERING COLLEGE –T CODE/EC1151 /CA/U2

I22 = 0.672 –j 0.363 – 0.467 + j 0.91

I22 = 0.205 +j 0.547 A

I22 = 0.584 A

3. Find the current i in the network shown in the fig. using super
position theorem.

Solution:

i1 + 8 = 0

i1 = - 8 A
