DC NETWORK ANALYSIS 41 INTRODUCTION When a number of network clements* are connected together to form a system that consists of set(s) of interconnected elements performing specific or assigned functions, it is called a “network”. An electrically closed network is a “circui An electrical network is a combination of numerous electric elements (e.g., resis- tance R, inductance L, capacitance C, etc.). Some important definitions related to an electrical network are as follows: Node: It is the junction in a circuit where two or more network elements are connected together. Branch: It is that part of the circuit which lies between two junctions in a circuit. Loop: It is a closed path in a circuit in which no element or node is encountered more than once. Mesh: It is such a loop that contains no other loop within it. 4.2; CHARACTERISTICS OF NETWORK ELEMENTS 4.2.1 Linear and Non-linear Elements A linear element shows linear characteristics of voltage vs current. Thus the parameters of linear elements remain constant (i.e., the parameters do not change with voltage or current applied to that element). Resistors, inductors and capaci- tors are linear elements. On the other hand, for a non-linear element, the current passing through it does not change linearly with the linear change in applied voltage across it, at a particular temperature and frequency. In a non-linear element the parameters change with applied voltage and current changes. Semiconductor devices like diodes, transistors, thyristors, etc. are typical examples of non-linear elements. Ohm's law is not valid for non-linear elements. *A network element is a component of a circuit having different characteristics like linear, non- linear, active or passive ete, and will be defined shortly. DC Network Analysis 181 4.2.2 Active and Passive Elements If a circuit element has the capability of enhancing the energy level of an electric signal passing through it, it is called an active element, viz., a battery, a trans- former, semiconductor devices, etc. Otherwise the element that simply allows the passage of the signal through it ‘out enhancement is called passive element (viz., resistors, inductors, thermistors and capacitors). Passive elements do not have any intrinsic property of boosting an electric signal. 4.2.3 Unilateral and Bilateral Elements If the magnitude of the current passing through an element is affected due to change in polarity of the applied voltage, the element is called a unilateral ele- ment. On the other hand if the current magnitude remains the same even if the polarity of the applied voltage is reversed, it is called a bilateral element. Unilat- eral elements offer varying impedances with variation in the magnitude or direc- tion of flow of the current while bilateral elements offer same impedance irrespective of the magnitude or direction of flow of current. A resistor, an induc- tance and a capacitor, all are bilateral elements while diodes, transistors, etc. are unilateral elements. 4.3 SERIES RESISTIVE CIRCUITS Resistors are said to be in series when they are connected in such a way that there is only one path through which current can flow. Therefore the current in a series circuit is the same at all parts in the circuit. The voltage drop across each compo- nent in a series circuit depends on the current levels and the component resistance (or impedance). 43.1 Currents and Voltages in a Series Circuits The circuit diagram for three series connected resis- tors and a d.c. voltage source is shown in Fig. 4.1. The total resistance connected across the voltage source is R = R, + R; + Ry. (R is called the equiva- lent resistance in ohms for the given circuit.) For a series circuit with n resistors, the equiva- lent resistance R is thus RoR, +Ry+Ryt-- +R, (4.0 The equivalent circuit for the series resistance circuit is shown in Fig. 4.2. Fig. 4.1 A simple series The equivalent circuit consists of the voltage seslative clreuit source E and the equivalent resistance R. The current / flows from the positive terminal of the voltage source. Using Ohm’s law the current through the series circuit in ampere is obtained as E E RR +R,+Ry+-4R, . (4.2) 182 There is only one path for current flow in a series circuit. The current flow causes a voltage drop V or potential difference across each resistor in the circuit of Fig. 4.). Using Ohm’s law, the voltage drops across each resistor in volts are obtained as V, = AR, V3 = IRy Basic Electrical Engineering =>! + Ee T SR Fig. 4.2. Equivalent of a simple series resistive circuit and V3 =JR3 Since the sum of the resistive voltage drops is equal to the applied emf, for any series circuit, E=V,+Vy4 V3 to + Vy E=l(R + Ry +Ryt-~+R,). Next we consider series connectiun of voltage sources instead of series conne: tion of resis- tors. If three voltage sources are connected in series as shown in Fig. 4.3, the resultant volt- age in volt is or E=E,+Ey+ Ey In Fig. 4.4 the lowermost voltage source E has its negative terminal connected to the nega- tive terminal of the middle cell. The resultant voltage in this case is E=E,|+E,-E; In Fig. 4.3 the voltage sources assist one another to produce the circuit current, so they are said to be in “series aiding”. In Fig. 4.4 the bottommost voltage source will attempt to produce current in the opposite direction to. that formed by the other two. Therefore this bottommost source is connected in “series op- posing” with the top two cells. 4.3.2 Voltage Divider In Fig. 4.5 two series connected resistors are used as a voltage divider or potential divider. Here, V, = IR, Also (4.3) & Fig. 4.3 Series connection of three-voltage sources -———+ ao aL le + L__, Fig. 44 Series connections of three voltage sources with the polarity of one source reversed A lt Fig. 45.

Voltage Divider Theorem Ina series circuit, the portion of applied emf developed across each resistor is the ratio of that resistor's value to the total series resistance in the circuit. 4.3.3 Potentiometer The circuit diagram of a variable resistor employed as a potentiometer is shown in Fig. 4.6. The potentiometer is essentially a single resistor with terminals at each end and a movable contact that can be set to any point on the resistor, Terminals A and B are the end terminals and terminals C is the ad- Yo justable contact (Fig. 4.6). { The output voltage (V,), in volt, is given as ; - Ry Fig, 4.6 A simple potentiometric V,=Ex R+R (4.5) circuit If the moving contact is half way between the two end terminals then R R,=R,= = rR a 1 or Ve=EX 5 When R)=R,V,=E and when R, =0,V,=0 Thus it is seen that the potentiometer can be adjusted to give an output voltage ranging linearly from 0 to E. 4.3.4 Power in a Series Circuit In Fig. 4.5, the power (VA) dissipated in 2, is given by 2. For any series circuit containing n number of resistors the power dissipated is P=P\+Py+P3+-- +P, + Vyl + Val be + Vy = IV, + Va + Vato + Va) =lE (4.6) Rt Ry + Ry toot Ry In de circuit volt-ampere power (VA) is same as power expressed in watts. Thus P is usually expressed in watts in de circuits, 4.3.5 Current-limiting Resistor Sometimes a resistor is included in series with an electrical circuit or electronic device to drop the supply voltage down to a desired level. This resistor can be treated as ty te a current-limiting resistor. +o In Fig. 4.7, R, provides a voltage drop to the series connected lamps Z, and L,. The lamps operate to a voltage level lower than — the source voltage even in series connection. Fig. 4.7. Application of current- Also the resistor R, limits the current J to the limiting resistor Rs level required by the lamps. Here circuit current in ampere is obtained as E Rg +(sum of resistances of lamps) or R, = (Ell) = (sum of resistances of lamps) (4.7) 4.3.6 Open Circuits and Short Circuits in a Series Circuit ‘An open circuit occurs in a series resistance circuit toe when one of the resistors (or any series network ele- i (5 0) zn ment) becomes disconnected from the adjacent one. + Open circuit can also occur when one of the resistors Ee Vor (or an element) has been destroyed by excessive powet | ‘Fe dissipation. -$ In the circuit shown in Fig. 4.8, the open circuit can be thought of another resistance in series with value “infinity”.

The total current taken from the supply is the sum of all the individual resistor or network elements’ currents. 4.4.1 Currents and Voltages in Parallel Circuits Resistors are said to be connected in parallel when the circuit has two terminals which are common to each resistor. Figure 4.14 represents a circuit having three resistors connected in parallel. The voltage across each resistor is E volts and the current through R; is /,, through Ry is /, and through Ry is J.

If G,, G2, G3, ..., G,, be the conductances of the resistors connected in parallel then the equivalent conductance (G) in Si- emens is given by G=G,+G,+G,+- +G, (4.10) According to Ohm's law, / = ¥ = VG, where V is the applied voltage, G is the equivalent conductance of a parallel circuit, and J is the source current. 4.4.3 Current Divider Parallel resistance circuits are often called current divider circuits because the supply current is divided among the parallel branches.

Hence the current through the short circuited path is SO/IS A = 10/3 A = 3.33 A. 4.6 KIRCHHOFF’S LAWS A German physicist Gustav Kirchhoff developed two laws enabling easier analy- sis of circuits containing interconnected impedances. The first law deals with flow of current and is popularly known as Kirchhoff’s current law (KCL) while the second one deals with voltage drop in a closed circuit and is known as Kirchhoff’s voltage laws (KVL). 4.6.1 Kirchhoff’s Current Law (KCL) It states that in any electrical network the algebraic sum of currents meeting at any node of a circuit is zero.

Then find the internal resistance of the network looking through the load terminals kept open circuited. In case these independent sources are non-ideal, the internal resistance will remain connected across the deactivated source terminals. (b) For dependent sources in addition or in absence of independent source: First Method (i) Find open circuit voltage V,, across the open circuited load terminals. Next short circuit the load terminals and find the short circuit current (J-) through the shorted terminals.

The constant cur- rent source (known as Norton’s equivalent current source) is of the magnitude of the short circuit current at the terminals. The internal resistance is the equivalent resistance of the network looking back into the termi- nals with all the sources replaced by their internal resistances. A network is shown in Fig. 4.98 to explain Norton’s theorem. Let us find out the current through R, using Norton's theorem. The steps are as follows: Step I Remove (R,) and short circuit the terminals a and 6 [Fig. 4.98(a)]. The current through the short circuited path is /,,= EVR, (= Iy), where Ty is the Norton's equivalent current.

It can be proved that the equivalent circuits given by Thevenin’s and Norton’s theorem yield exactly the same current and same voltage in the load impedance and they are effectively identical to one another. In any particular problem, either theorem can therefore be used. In most cases Thevenin’s theorem is the easier to apply, although when the network impedance is high compared with the load imped- ance, the Norton's theorem concept may simplify calculations. a Active Passive network (A) network (B) (with source) {no source) Thevenin’s L Nae Norton's equivalent equivalent circuit circuit a a _— > ‘e(th) 1M Z(=Zn) 2 + te(H) $zizw BZ Voe ~ 5 Fig. 4.110 Equivalence of Thevenin’s and Norton's circuits DC Network Analysis 267 From Fig. 4.110 by applying Thevenin’s theorem the load current is given by Vee lum™ 35, (4.42) where V,.= Open circuit voltage (Thevenin’s equivalent voltage source) Z, = Thevenin’s equivalent impedance (or resistance for de circuit), and Z,, = Load impedance of the load network.

This theorem is aplicable to all branches of electrical engineering including analysis of communication networks. However the overall efficency of a network supplying maximum power to any branch is only 50%; hence application of this theorem to power transmission and distribution networks is limited because in that case, the final target is high efficiency and not maximum power transfer. But in electronics and communication network as the purpose is to receive or transmit maximum power, even at low efficiency, the problem of maximum power transfer is of crucial importance in the operation of communication lines and antennas. + Illustration + Figure 4.112 shows a simple resistive network in which a load resistance R, is = connected across terminals a and b of the network.
