(b) For two meshes containing the same current source take a path around the
outside of the two meshes avoiding the current source - this is called a super
mesh.
4. How many node equations are obtained from an N number of nodes in a given
circuit?
For a circuit of N nodes the number of nodal equations is N-1
6. What basic laws are the underlying principles of Mesh Analysis and Nodal
Analysis?
The basic laws that underlies the principles of Mesh analysis and Nodal analysis
are Kirchhoff’s Voltage Law and Kirchhoff’s Current Law respectively.
7. Determine the mesh current Ix shown in the figure below.
Solution:
Mesh Equations:
MESH 1: −24V + 5I1 + 20(I1 − I2 ) + 40V = 0
−16V = 25I1 − 20I2 eq1
MESH 2: −40V + 10I2 + 20(I1 − I2 ) + 36V = 0
4V = −20I1 + 30I2 eq2
Solving Simultaneously:
I1 = -1.14 A and I2 = -0.63 A
But Ix = I1, thus:
Answer: Ix = -1.14
Vx = 10V - 5V
Vx = 5V
10 - 5 = 4 I1 - 2 I2
5 = 4 I 1 – 2 I2 (a)
5 = -2 I1 + 16 I2 + 10 I3 (b)
6 I1 – 5 I2 – I 3 = 0 (c)
I1 = 8A
I2 = 13.5A
I3 = -19.5A
Solution:
-8-3 = (3+4) Va – 3 Vb – 4 Vc = 0
-11 = 7 Va – 3 Vb – 4 Vc (a)
28 =- 7 Va + 4 Vb + 9 Vc (b)
Va = 1.705V
Vb = 4.24V
Vc = 2.55V
