Теорема о суперпозиции используется в схемах с несколькими независимыми источниками.
Чтобы применить эту теорему, необходимо одновременно сохранять один независимый источник, заменяя неактивный источник напряжения с коротким замыканием и неактивный источник тока с разомкнутой цепью соответственно.
Теорема гласит, что напряжение на элементе или ток через элемент в линейной цепи является алгебраической суммой вкладов от независимых источников.
Рассмотрим схему с источником напряжения и тока, в которой необходимо определить падение напряжения на резисторе.
Падение напряжения происходит от обоих независимых источников.
Вклад источника напряжения получается путем установки источника тока на ноль.
Применяя закон напряжения Кирхгофа, определяется ток петли. Используя закон Ома, вычисляется падение напряжения.
Аналогичным образом, вклад источника тока получается путем установки источника напряжения в ноль.
Объединив резисторы, получается эквивалентное сопротивление. С помощью правила деления тока и закона Ома определяется падение напряжения.
Наконец, путем сложения вкладов от независимых источников получается общее падение напряжения на резисторе.

Теорема суперпозиции

Принцип суперпозиции — это фундаментальная концепция, утверждающая, что в линейной цепи напряжение на элементе (или ток через него) можно определить путем суммирования отдельных вкладов от каждого независимого источника, действующего изолированно. При работе с линейными цепями, содержащими несколько независимых источников, этот принцип служит ценным инструментом анализа. Чтобы эффективно применить принцип суперпозиции, следует поочередно рассматривать один независимый источник, отключив при этом все остальные. Этот подход дает выходной сигнал (напряжение или ток), полученный от активного источника.

Совокупный эффект всех активных источников затем можно определить путем алгебраического сложения их индивидуальных вкладов. Это упрощает процесс анализа схемы. Примечательно, что зависимые источники остаются незатронутыми, поскольку они управляются переменными схемы. Стоит отметить, что использование принципа суперпозиции может привести к увеличению объёма необходимых вычислений. Например, имея дело со схемой, состоящей из трех независимых источников, необходимо проанализировать три отдельные упрощенные схемы, каждая из которых представляет вклад отдельного источника. Несмотря на этот потенциальный недостаток, принцип суперпозиции остается ценным методом упрощения сложных схем путем замены источников напряжения короткими замыканиями и источников тока разомкнутыми цепями.

Superposition Theorem

analyzing circuits with superposition

Superposition is a circuit analysis method for linear circuits with more than one independent source. It lets you find the voltage across or current through an element by adding the separate effects of each source acting alone.

To use superposition, keep one independent source active and turn off the others. A voltage source is replaced by a short circuit, and a current source is replaced by an open circuit. Then calculate the output from the single active source.

Repeat the process for each independent source in the circuit. The final voltage or current is found by algebraically adding the individual results. Dependent sources are not turned off because they depend on circuit variables.

This method can simplify complex circuits, but it may take more work. A circuit with three independent sources must be analyzed as three separate simplified circuits. Even so, superposition remains a useful tool for breaking down difficult linear circuit problems.

nodal analysis

Using Node Voltages in Circuit Analysis

Nodal analysis uses node voltages to simplify circuit analysis. In this method, the voltage at each node becomes the main variable. Once those voltages are known, they can be used to find other values, such as the current through specific circuit parts. The process begins by choosing a reference node, also called a datum node. This node is selected for convenience and assigned a voltage of zero. The other nodes, called non-reference nodes, are then measured relative to that point. In the...

Supernode Equations in Nodal Analysis

Nodal analysis uses node voltages and Kirchhoff’s laws to solve circuits with voltage sources. It is a systematic method for breaking a complex circuit into smaller parts that are easier to analyze. In this example, the circuit includes four resistors and two voltage sources. One voltage source is connected between a non-reference node and the reference node. In that case, the non-reference node voltage can be written directly as the source voltage. This removes one unknown and makes the...

mesh analysis

Mesh Currents for Circuit Analysis

Mesh currents give students a simpler way to analyze planar circuits. In mesh analysis, the unknowns are currents, not voltages. The method uses Kirchhoff's voltage law, or KVL, to build the equations needed to solve the circuit. A mesh is a closed loop in a circuit that does not contain any smaller loops inside it. Each independent mesh is assigned a mesh current, and this current is usually drawn in the clockwise direction. These mesh currents are used as the main circuit variables during...

mesh analysis with current sources

Current Sources in Mesh Circuit Analysis

Current sources make mesh circuit analysis easier because they can reduce the number of equations needed. This applies to both independent and dependent current sources. The method depends on where the current source is placed in the circuit. When a current source appears in only one mesh, the setup is simple. Assign mesh currents as usual, but leave out the mesh that contains the current source from the equation process. Then apply Kirchhoff's voltage law, or KVL, to the remaining mesh to get...

source transformation

Circuit Source Equivalents

Circuit source equivalents make it easier to simplify electrical circuits in circuit analysis. A source transformation replaces a voltage source in series with a resistor by a current source in parallel with a resistor, or it replaces a current source in parallel with a resistor by a voltage source in series with a resistor. The key idea is that the equivalent resistance at the circuit terminals stays the same when the original sources are turned off. When making the change, the current source...

linear circuits

Circuit Linearity and Resistor Behavior

Circuit linearity describes how a circuit responds when its input changes. A linear circuit has an output that is directly proportional to its input. This behavior follows two rules: homogeneity and additivity. Homogeneity means that if the input, or excitation, is multiplied by a constant factor, the response is multiplied by the same factor. For example, if the current is increased by a constant k, the voltage also increases by k times. Additivity means that the response to a sum of inputs...

thevinin's theorem

Thevenin Circuit Equivalents

Thevenin circuit equivalents simplify linear two-terminal circuits by replacing the fixed part of a network with one equivalent source and one resistor. This method is useful when a circuit has a fixed section and a load that can change. A household electrical outlet is a familiar example, because different appliances can be plugged in or removed. Each change in load can require a new circuit analysis, so an equivalent circuit makes the work easier. Thevenin's theorem states that a linear...

norton's theorem

Norton Equivalent Circuit in DC Analysis

Norton equivalent circuit in DC analysis shows how a linear two-terminal circuit can be replaced by a simpler network. The replacement uses a current source, called I_N, in parallel with a resistor, called R_N. I_N is the short-circuit current through the terminals, and R_N is the input or equivalent resistance seen at the terminals when the independent sources are turned off. To find Norton's resistance, all independent sources in the circuit are set to zero. The resistance measured at the...

Load Matching in Thevenin Circuits

Load matching in Thevenin circuits helps a source deliver the most power to a connected load. This matters in engineering fields such as telecommunications, where power delivery must be optimized. Even then, internal losses can be significant and may equal or exceed the power sent to the load. The Thevenin equivalent circuit is a useful way to study this situation. It replaces the full linear circuit with a simpler source and resistance while keeping the load in place. In this setup, the load...

Wheatstone Bridge Output for Strain Gauge Design

A strain gauge and Wheatstone bridge work together to turn mechanical strain into an electrical signal. In engineering, this setup is often used to measure force or pressure. Each part of the bridge has a resistance that changes slightly when strain is applied. The main goal is to turn a very small voltage output into a larger, easier-to-read signal. A voltmeter can then measure that output more clearly. To do this, an engineer designs the strain gauge circuit and figures out how much...
