Theory

Maximum power is developed in a load when the load resistance equals the Thevenin
resistance of the source to which it is connected

All linearly constructed sources can be reduced to their Thevenin equivalent. In DC circuits,
the load can be represented by a resistance RL. The source develops a voltage V L across the
load and enables current IL to flow into it. The power delivered to the load resistance (R L)
depends on the value of RL. Maximum current IL occurs when RL = 0 (shorted terminals).
The maximum voltage VL occurs when RL rcuited terminals). Yet load power PL
= 0 for both cases.

PL is maximum when RL equals the Thevenin equivalent resistance of the source, i.e. when
RL =

To find Power across RL Photograph of practical circuit done in the lab

To find Power across RL Procedure:


1) Open OrCAD Tool and create new project.
2) Draw the circuits (Vth and Rth ) using the tools: R analog, VDC source, IDC source,
connecting wire and a ground potential.
3) Enter the values in R and V.
4) Go to PSpice and create a new simulation profile.
5) In the simulation settings dialogue box, chose analysis type as Bias Point, enter APPLY
and OK.
6) Now click Run PSpice.
7) Enable bias voltage display and Enable bias current display.

potential and connecting wire.


9) After drawing the circuit, go to Part and chose PARAM/SPECIAL.
10) Place it beside the circuit and double click on PARAMETER.
11) In the schematic tab, click on pivot and then click on new property.
12) Now enter name as Rvar and value as 1. Enter APPLY and OK.
13) Go to PSpice and create a new simulation profile.
14) In the simulation settings dialogue box, chose analysis type as DC Sweep, chose sweep
variable as global parameter, enter parameter name as Rvar. Under sweep type, enter
start value =1, end value = 20 and increment = 0.2. Enter APPLY and OK.
15) Chose power dissipation marker and put it on Rvar.
16) Now click Run PSpice.
17) A different window will open up with a graph containing peak value, Rth(x coordinate)
and Pmax (y coordinate).
18) Compare the values to the manually calculated values and write the result.

Graph obtained using PSPICE


Result:

The simulation was setup and run to obtain Vth, Rth and graph.
