Mesh Analysis [Loop Analysis]

what-is-mesh-analysis

Mesh analysis or loop analysis involves the application of Kirchhoff’s voltage law to a circuit. KVL provides linear equations which are used to obtain current in branches. 5 Steps to Apply Mesh Analysis Assign a clockwise current direction to all loops in a network Label the loops and indicate the voltage polarity Apply Kirchhoff’s voltage … Read more

What is Loading Effect of Electrical Instruments [Question]

Any type of electrical measurement device/equipment connected to a circuit impacts its electrical properties to some extent. A voltmeter connected to some high-value resistance can impact the actual resistance of the circuit, similarly, an ammeter connected in the circuit can impact the amount of current flowing in the circuit. The loading effect of electrical instruments … Read more

Substition Theorem

substitution-theorem

The substitution theorem states that any branch within a circuit can be substituted by an equivalent branch that has the same current and same voltage through it. Illustration: Consider a series circuit containing two resistors: 10 ohms and 5 ohms connected to a 12 v source. From voltage divider rule, the Resistor R1 has 4 … Read more

Nuclear Power Plant: Schematic Diagram and Working

nuclear-power-plant

A nuclear power plant converts electrical energy into nuclear energy. Basic Working In a nuclear power station, Uranium is subjected to the fission process in the reactor. The heat energy produced is utilized for producing steam at high temperature. The steam is then moved to the steam turbine which produces mechanical energy at its output. … Read more
