Test: Mesh & Nodal Analysis - Question 4

Calculate the mesh currents I1 and I2 flowing in the first and second meshes respectively.​

Detailed Solution for Test: Mesh & Nodal Analysis - Question 4

In this circuit, we have a super mesh present. Let I1 and I2 be the currents in loops in clockwise direction. The two mesh equations are:
I2-I1=3
-5I1-3I2=5
Solving these equations simultaneously, we get I1= -1.75A and I2= 1.25A.
Since no specific direction given so currents in loop 1 and loop 2 are 1.75A and 1.25A respectively.

Test: Mesh & Nodal Analysis - Question 5

 I1 is the current flowing in the first mesh. I2 is the current flowing in the second mesh and I3 is the current flowing in the top mesh. If all three currents are flowing in the clockwise direction, find the value of I1, I2 and I3.​

Explanation: The two meshes which contain the 3A current is a super mesh. The three mesh equations therefore are:
I3=2A
I2-I1=3
-2I1-I2=-26
Solving these equations simultaneously we get:
I1=7.67A, I2=10.67A and I3=2A.

Test: Mesh & Nodal Analysis - Question 6

Calculate the mesh currents.​

Detailed Solution for Test: Mesh & Nodal Analysis - Question 6

The two meshes which contain the 3A source, act as a supper mesh. The mesh equations are:
I1-I2=3
-11I1-4I2+14I3=-10
10I1+4I2-28I3=0
Solving these equations simultaneously, we get the three currents as 2A, 1A and 0.57A.
