18.5 MAXIMUM POWER TRANSFER THEOREM
When applied to ac circuits, the maximum power transfer theorem
states that
maximum power will be delivered to a load when the load impedance
is the conjugate of the Thévenin impedance across its terminals.
That is, for Fig. 18.81, for maximum power transfer to the load,

If the load resistance is adjustable but the magnitude of the load reac-
tance cannot be set equal to the magnitude of the Thévenin reactance,
then the maximum power that can be delivered to the load will occur
when the load reactance is made as close to the Thévenin reactance as
possible and the load resistance is set to the following value:
(18.21)
where each reactance carries a positive sign if inductive and a negative
sign if capacitive.
The power delivered will be determined by
(18.22)
where (18.23)
The derivation of the above equations is given in Appendix G of the
text. The following example demonstrates the use of the above.
EXAMPLE 18.21 For the network in Fig. 18.90:
a. Determine the value of R
L
for maximum power to the load if the load
reactance is fixed at 4 .
b. Find the power delivered to the load under the conditions of part (a).
c. Find the maximum power to the load if the load reactance is made
adjustable to any value, and compare the result to part (b) above.
