    Engineering Solve this Circuit using both Nodal Analysis and Mesh Analysis

    Thanks guys. So reference node is defined at the bottom. Trivial Nodes would be V10 & V40 as they are actually just V1 and V2 respective So my super node is defined as V20-V30=V3. My currents assumption will be all leaving the supernode so I will get the equation...

    Engineering Solve this Circuit using both Nodal Analysis and Mesh Analysis

    Thanks Magoo it's really appreciated as I've been struggling with this for weeks though I'm still not following. As my V20 is connected via the reference node the difference in quantity would be 0-V20 no? or am I missing the point that node V20 would be V1-V20. If you could point me in the...

    Superposition Theorem with complex numbers

    Thanks. Yes must make sure that what I input into my calculator is correct. So just to confirm that with an impedance in the form of (a+bi), as the current crosses the impedance this would cause the voltage drop and both the real and imaginary parts sign to change i.e (-a-bi)

    Superposition Theorem with complex numbers

    Δ = -j4(I1)x(34.999+j41.707)(I2) - (-j6)(I1)x(-34.999-j35.707)(I2) = (381.07-j349.99) ΔI1 = (-j415)x(34.999+j41.707)(I2) - (0) x (-34.999-j35.707)(I2) = (17308.4-j14524.6) ΔI2 = (-j4)(I1)x(0) - (-j6)(I1) x (-j416) = (2490) ∴ I1 = (17308.4-j14524.6)/ (381.07-j349.99) = (3.963+j3.639) I2 =...

    Superposition Theorem with complex numbers

    O.k so using Cramer's Rule. Δ = -j4(I1)x(34.999+j41.707)(I2) - (-j6)(I1)x(-34.999+j35.707)(I2) = (-47.414 - j349.99) ΔI1 = (-j415)x(34.999+j41.707)(I2) - (0) x (-34.999+j35.707)(I2) = (17308.405-j14524.585) ΔI2 = (-j4)(I1)x(0) - (-j6)(I1) x (-j416) = (2490) I1 = ΔI1/Δ =...

    Superposition Theorem with complex numbers

    Thanks guys. OK, so here is how I have distributed my currents for voltage source 1. As I move from the top of V1 for loop 1 the first component I encounter is the j4 ohm impedance. As this is with the current flow it would cause a voltage drop so my first component is -j4I1. The next component...
