Experiment 3: Circuit Analysis A. Mesh Analysis B. Nodal Analysis

This document describes two experiments on circuit analysis techniques: 1) Mesh analysis: A circuit is analyzed using Kirchhoff's voltage law applied to two mesh loops. Students are asked to construct the circuit, measure voltages and currents, and verify the results. 2) Nodal analysis: The same circuit is analyzed using Kirchhoff's current law applied to two nodes. Again, students measure the real circuit and verify the calculated values.

Theory:

Kirchhoff’s Voltage Law states that the algebraic sum of all the voltages
around any closed path (loop or mesh) is zero. Applying Kirchhoff’s voltage
law to the first and the second loops in the circuit shown in Figure 1 yields:
Loop 1: -Vs +V1 +V2 = 0 (1a)
Loop 2: -V2 +V3 +V4 = 0 (1b)

Procedure:
1. Construct the circuit shown in Figure 1 using the values below:
R1 = 1 KΩ, R2 = 2.2 KΩ, R3 = 1.2 KΩ, R4 = 1 KΩ
2. Set the Variable Power Supply (Vs) to 5 Volts.
3. Accurately measure all voltages and currents in the circuit using the Digital
Multi-Meter (DMM).
4. Record the measured voltage and current values in table 1 given below.
5. Verify KVL for the loops in the circuit using equations 1a and 1b.
6. Verify KCL for the nodes in the circuit using equations 2a, 2b, 2c and 2d.
