NODAL ANALYSIS

 

 USES OF NODAL ANALYSIS :

       It is an important technique to finding solution in a network

ABOUT NODE :

 Three or more branches connected at a point is called as node point or node.

STEPS INVOLVES IN NODAL ANALYSIS :

STEP - 1 : Find the all nodal points and choose one point as a reference point.

STEP - 2 : Label the node voltage and mark current.

STEP - 3 : Apply Kirchhoff's current law at node point.

NOTE :

Node voltage is obtain by below pneumatics.

Node voltage = Voltage at arrow tail - Voltage at arrow head

APPLICATION OF NODAL ANALYSIS :

Determine the current through 10 ohm resistor.

                

question

STEP - 1 : There are three nodal point in the above circuit.

STEP - 2 :Mark the nodal point and current.

                

circuit

STEP - 3 : Apply Kirchhoff's current law at each node point.

       At Node V1 :

              I1 - I2 - I3 = 0                                                                               -----> 1

      Get the value of current refer notes,

             I1 = 8 - V1/4 , I2 = V1 - 0/8 , I3 = V1 - V2/10

        Substitute the current value in equation 1

           ((8 - V1)/4) - (V1/8) - ((V1 - V2)/10) =0

            0.475 V1 - 0.1 V2 = 2                                                                  ------> 2

       At Node V2 :

                I3 - I4 - I5 =0                                                                              ------> 3

     Get the value of current refer notes,

            I3 = V1 - V2/10 , I4 = V2 - 0/4 , I5 = V2 - 4/2

      Substitute the value of current in the equation 3

            ((V1 - V2)/10) - ((V2 - 0)/4) - ((V2 - 4)/2) = 0

             0.1 V1 - 0.85 V2 = -2                                                               ------> 4

       Solving the equation 2 and 4, we get

               V1 = 4.825 V , V2 = 2.920 V

        For the current at 10 ohm,

           I10 ohm = ((V1-V2)/10) = ((4.825 - 2.920)/10) = 1.905/10 = 0.1905 ohm.

IN THIS WAY WE USE THE NODAL ANALYSIS.
