Presentation ON Thevenin'S Theorem: Presented By: Akanksha Kumari 10MUBEEE005

The document presents Thevenin's theorem, which allows any complex circuit to be reduced to an equivalent circuit with one voltage source and one internal resistance. It shows how to measure the Thevenin voltage and resistance of a sample circuit using a simulator. The Thevenin voltage is measured as 4V and resistance as 6 ohms. Calculating the current in the original and equivalent circuits using Ohm's law yields the same result, verifying the use of Thevenin's theorem to analyze circuits.

PRESENTATION ON THEVENINS THEOREM

PRESENTED BY: AKANKSHA KUMARI 10MUBEEE005

THEVENINS THEOREM
Thevenins theorem permits the reduction of a two-terminal dc network with any number of resistors and sources (Complex Circuit) to one Equivalent circuit having only one source and one internal resistance in a series configuration shown belw:

Original and Thevenin Equivalent Circuit

Measuring & Calculating Vth by MultiSim:


Circuit above shows how to measure the Thevenin Voltage (Vth). That is measured 4V. The Circuit below shows how to measure Thevinins Resistance (Rth): Conclusion: To measure Vth, remove the load resistance (unknown), then measure the voltage across open circuit terminal (Vo.c. = Vth). The Circuit below, shows how to measure and calculate the Thevinin Resistance (Rth)

Original and circuit to measure Rth

Measured and Calculated Rth


To measure Rth, with load resistance removed, also remove and replace source voltage by a short (jumper wire), then measure and calculate the Thevenin resistance zacross the Open Circuit terminals: Rth is measured 6 Ohms. Considering the jumper wire, 6 and 3 Ohms resistors are in parallel, and result is in series with 4 Ohm resistor. Rth (Cal.)= [(6 x 3)/(6+3) + 4] =2 +4 = 6 Ohms

Original & Thevenin Equivalent Circuit:

Using Ohms Law to Calculate Unknown Current


As you can see from this simple Tutorial Example, the load current for original and the Thevenin Equivalent Circuit are Identical. This verifies our solution and demonstrate how to measure and calculate the unknown element current by using Ohms Law for Thevnin Equivalent Circuit: IL = (Vth)/(Rth + RL) = (4V) / (6+6) IL = 4/12 = 0.333A => Calculated! Compare this with measured, they are exactly equal! Now you can apply this to other Problems.
