    The document analyzes a DC circuit using nodal and mesh analysis. It presents the theories of nodal and mesh analysis using Kirchhoff's laws. It then shows the calculations to find the node voltages, branch voltages, branch currents, and loop currents using both methods. The theoretical values are verified through a circuit simulation experiment and shown to match closely in a results table.

    Analysis of DC Circuit using Mesh and Nodal

    Analysis
    EXPERIMENT NO: 1 DATE: 05.10.2020

    Aim:
    To analyse a DC circuit using Nodal Analysis and
    Mesh Analysis.

    Apparatus Required:

    Analysis Type: Bias point


    Theory:
    Kirchhoff’s Current Law: Nodal Analysis
    At any node (junction) in an electric circuit the
    total current flowing towards that junction is equal to the
    total current flowing away from the junction.

    Kirchhoff’s Voltage Law: Mesh Analysis


    In any closed loop in a network, the algebraic
    sum of the voltage drops (i.e. products of current and
    resistance) taken around the loop is equal to the resultant
    e.m.f (voltage rise) acting in that loop.

    Circuit analysis using Nodal analysis:

    Node Voltages: VN1, VN2, VN3


    Branch voltages in terms of node voltages:
    V1=VN1-VN2
    V2=VN2-VN3
    V3=VN2
    V4=VN3
    V5=VN1-VN3

    Branch Currents:

    Ix=Vx /Rx

    (x=1,2,3,4,5)

    At Node-1: Since voltage at node-1 is known, the


    nodal equation at that node is not required.
    At Node-2:

    I1 = I 2 + I 3

    ( VN1-VN2 ) / R1 =( VN2-VN3 ) / R2 + VN2 / R3

    VN2[ 1/5 + 1/20 + 1/25] – VN3/20 =20 -----------------(1)


    At Node-3:
    I4 = I 2 + I 5
    VN3 / R4 =(VN2-VN3) / R2 + (VN1-VN3) / R5
    VN3[ 1/50 + 1/20 + 1/10] – VN2[ 1/20 ] =10-------(2)

    From (1) and (2) :


    VN2 =83.334
    VN3 =83.334

    Node Voltages:
    VN1 =100
    VN2 =83.334
    VN3 =83.334

    Branch Voltages:

    V1 =VN1 - VN2 = 16.667 V


    V2 =VN2 - VN3 = 0 V
    V3 =VN2 =83.334 V
    V4 =VN3 =83.334 V
    V5 =VN1 – VN3 =16.667 V

    Branch Currents:
    I1 =V1/R1 = 3.332A
    I2 =V2/R2 = 0A
    I3 =V3/R3 = 3.332A
    I4 =V4/R4 =1.667A
    I5 =V5/R5 =1.667A

    IR1= IL1 - IL3
    IR2= IL2 - IL3
    IR3= IL1 – IL2
    IR4= IL2
    IR5= IL3

    Apply KVL to get voltage loop equation:


    VR1 + VR3 =100
    VR2 + VR4 – VR3 =0
    VR5 - VR2 – VR1 =0

    IR1R1 + IR3R3 =100


    IR2R2 + IR4R4 – IR3R3 =0
    IR5R5 – IR2R2 – IR1R1 =0

    (IL1 - IL3)R1 + (IL1 – IL2)R3 =100


    (IL2 - IL3)R2 + IL2R4 – (IL1 – IL2)R3 =0
    IL3R5 – (IL2 - IL3)R2 – (IL1 - IL3)R1 =0

    Loop currents:
    IL1= 5A
    IL2= 1.667
    IL3= 1.667

    Branch currents:
    IR1= IL1 - IL3 = 3.334A
    IR2= IL2 - IL3 = 0A
    IR3= IL1 – IL2 = 3.334A
    IR4= IL2 = 1.667A
    IR5= IL3 = 1.667A

    Branch voltages:
    V1 = I1R1 = 16.67V
    V2 = I2R2 = 0V
    V3 = I3R3 = 83.35V
    V4 = I4R4 = 83.35V
    V5 = I4R4= 16.67V
