:Objectives
.To work through the procedural steps involved in Thevenin theorem •
.To verify the values obtained by measuring them using the digital multimeter •
.To construct a Thevenin equivalent circuit •
.To verify maximum power transfer theorem •

:Theory
Thevenin’s Theorem states that any complicated network
across its load terminals can be substituted by a voltage source
with one resistance in series. This theorem helps in the study of
the variation of current in a particular branch when the resistance
of the branch is varied while the remaining network remains the
same.

For example in designing electrical and electronics circuits.

A more general statement of Thevenin’s Theorem is that any


linear active network consisting of independent or dependent
voltage and current source and the network elements can be
replaced by an equivalent circuit having a voltage source in series
with a resistance.

Where the voltage source being the open-circuited voltage across


the open-circuited load terminals and the resistance being the
internal resistance of the source.

In other words, the current flowing through a resistor connected


across any two terminals of a network by an equivalent circuit
having a voltage source Eth in series with a resistor Rth. Where Eth is
the open-circuit voltage between the required two terminals
called the Thevenin voltage and the Rth is the equivalent
resistance of the network as seen from the two-terminal with all
other sources replaced by their internal resistances called
Thevenin resistance.

Steps for Solving Thevenin’s Theorem


Step 1 – First of all remove the load resistance rL of the given
circuit.

Step 2 – Replace all the sources by their internal resistance.

Step 3 – If sources are ideal then short circuit the voltage source
and open circuit the current source.

Step 4 – Now find the equivalent resistance at the load terminals,


known as Thevenin’s Resistance (RTH).

Step 5 – Draw the Thevenin’s equivalent circuit by connecting


the load resistance and after that determine the desired
response.

- Maximum Power Transfer:


states that – A resistive load, being connected to a DC network,
receives maximum power when the load resistance is equal to the
internal resistance known as (Thevenin’s equivalent resistance) of
the source network as seen from the load terminals. The
Maximum Power Transfer theorem is used to find the load
resistance for which there would be the maximum amount of
power transfer from the source to the load.

The maximum power transfer theorem is applied to both the DC


and AC circuit. The only difference is that in the AC circuit the
resistance is substituted by the impedance.

The maximum power transfer theorem finds their applications in


communication systems which receive low strength signal. It is
also used in speaker for transferring the maximum power from an
amplifier to the speaker.

• DC Power Supply
• Digital multimeter
• Breadboard
• Variable resistance
• Resistors {200Ω ,100Ω ,100Ω ,100Ω ,470Ω , 10Ω}

:Procedure
: Thevenin equivalent circuit
:Verifying the Thevenin's theorem
.a. Construct the circuit of the diagram using 100Ω resistant of RL
.b. Accurately measure the voltage VL across the load resistance
c. Find VTH: measure the voltage across the terminals a and b while
.load resistance RL not connected. This is equal to VTH
d. Find RTH: Remove the source voltage E and replace it with a short
circuit. Measure the resistance looking into the opening where RL was
.with an ohmmeter (using the multimeter). This gives RTH
e. Obtaining VTH and RTH, construct the equivalent circuit (ETH, RTH
and RL). f. Measure the VL for this circuit and compare it to the VL
obtained from circuit of the diagram. This verifies the Thevenin
.theorem

Conclusion:
1. If the load applied is less than the Thévenin resistance,
the power to the load will drop off rapidly as it gets
smaller. However, if the applied load is greater than
the Thévenin resistance, the power to the load will not
drop off as rapidly as it increases t.
2. The total power delivered by a supply such as E Th is
absorbed by both the Thévenin equivalent
resistance
and the load resistance. Any power delivered
by the source that does not get to the load
is lost to the Thévenin resistance.
