Explain node analysis method with the help of an example. Or Explain the nodal analysis with suitable example. IR.GRY:, Nov. 2018(0)] Ans, To determine the equilibrium equation on the node basis we make use of the Kirchhofl’s current law (KCL). Let us consider the simple resistive network to represent the procedure uscd in node analysis as shown in fig. 1,52. There: are four nodes, namely (1), (2), (3) and (4). For a convenience, the negative terminal of an active element is selected as the reference node, we select node (4) as the reference node and assume its potential to be zero. A potential difference between any two nodes in a network is called the node pair voltage. Thus Vj>, V3 V31» Vi4eV24 and V3q are the node pair voltages. However, the potential ofa particular node with respect to the reference node is termed the node voltage. Hence, V4, Vog and V3, are the node voltages. With reference to fig. 1.52, the node voltage V4 is known to be equal to the battery voltage. Having identified the unknown voltages, our next aim is to write network equations in terms of these unknown voltages. Let the node voltages of nodes (1), (2) and (3) be called V;, V> and V3 respectively.

Write its equation, Ans, Lot us assume a rectangular coil of N turns placed in a uniform in the anti-clockwise The coil mov of a (in rad/sec). magnetic field as shown in fig. direction at constant angular veloc cee foe en Fig, 2.2 If the coil is in the vertical position, the flux linking the coil is zero since the plane of the coil is paralle] to the direction of the magnetic field. Therefore at this position, an e.m-f. induced in the coil is zero. When the coil rotates by some angle in the anti-clockwise direction, there is a rate of change of flux linking the coil and therefore an e.m.f. is induced in the coil according to Faraday’s law. The flux linking the coil is maximum when the coil reaches the horizontal position and therefore an e.m.f. induced is also maximum. If the coil further rotates in the anti-clockwise direction, an e.m.f. induced in the coil decreases. Next when the coil comes to the vertical position, an e.m.f. induced becomes zero. After that the same cycle is repeated and an e.m.f. induced in the opposite direction. One cycle of A.C. voltage is generated, when the coil completes one complete revolution. Equation of Sinusoidal A.C. Voltage — Let us assume a rectangular coil of N tums placed in a uniform magnetic field in the position shown in fig. 2.3.
