Network Theorems (ac)
18.1 INTRODUCTION
Due to the need for developing confidence in the application of the various theorems to net-
works with controlled (dependent) sources, some sections have been divided into two parts:
independent sources and dependent sources.
Theorems to be considered in detail include the superposition theorem, Thévenin’s and
Norton’s theorems, and the maximum power transfer theorem. The substitution and reciproc-
ity theorems and Millman’s theorem are not discussed in detail her                      . e
18.2 SUPERPOSITION THEOREM
You will recall from Chapter 9 that the superposition theorem eliminated the need for solv-
ing simultaneous linear equations by considering the effects of each source independently. To
consider the effects of each source, we had to remove the remaining sources. This was ac-
complished by setting voltage sources to zero (short-circuit representation) and current sources
to zero (open-circuit representation). The current through, or voltage across, a portion of the
network produced by each source was then added algebraically to find the total solution for
the current or voltage.
The only variation in applying this method to ac networks with independent sources is that
we are now working with impedances and phasors instead of just resistors and real numbers.
The superposition theorem is not applicable to power effects in ac networks since we are
still dealing with a nonlinear relationship. It can be applied to networks with sources of dif-
ferent frequencies only if the total response for each frequency is found independently and the
results are expanded in a nonsinusoidal expression, as appearing in Chapter 25.
One of the most frequent applications of the superposition theorem is to electronic systems
in which the dc and ac analyses are treated separately and the total solution is the sum of the
two. It is an important application of the theorem because the impact of the reactive elements

met for maximum power transfer to a load in an

Network Theorems (ac)
18.1 INTRODUCTION
Due to the need for developing confidence in the application of the various theorems to net-
works with controlled (dependent) sources, some sections have been divided into two parts:
independent sources and dependent sources.
Theorems to be considered in detail include the superposition theorem, Thévenin’s and

18.2 SUPERPOSITION THEOREM
You will recall from Chapter 9 that the superposition theorem eliminated the need for solv-
ing simultaneous linear equations by considering the effects of each source independently. To
consider the effects of each source, we had to remove the remaining sources. This was ac-
complished by setting voltage sources to zero (short-circuit representation) and current sources
to zero (open-circuit representation). The current through, or voltage across, a portion of the
network produced by each source was then added algebraically to find the total solution for
the current or voltage.
The only variation in applying this method to ac networks with independent sources is that
we are now working with impedances and phasors instead of just resistors and real numbers.
The superposition theorem is not applicable to power effects in ac networks since we are
still dealing with a nonlinear relationship. It can be applied to networks with sources of dif-
ferent frequencies only if the total response for each frequency is found independently and the
results are expanded in a nonsinusoidal expression, as appearing in Chapter 25.
One of the most frequent applications of the superposition theorem is to electronic systems
in which the dc and ac analyses are treated separately and the total solution is the sum of the
two. It is an important application of the theorem because the impact of the reactive elements

changes dramatically in response to the two types of independent
sources. In addition, the dc analysis of an electronic system can often de-
fine important parameters for the ac analysis. Example 18.4 demon-
strates the impact of the applied source on the general configuration of
the network.
We first consider networks with only independent sources to provide
a close association with the analysis of Chapter 9.

Solution: For the dc analysis, the capacitor can be replaced by an open-
circuit equivalent, and the inductor by a short-circuit equivalent. The re-
sult is the network in Fig. 18.13.
The resistors R

determined using the voltage divider rule:
