Sorry i did not complete that, you might think i do not understand Thevenin's theorem, but infact i do and i have derived, it and if you wish to confirm, i have included the document in this post. Thevenin succesfully calculates the voltage across the load, though even for for more complex...
As i profread his solution to the circuit using Thevenin myself, i want to comment on your statement meBIgguy "you seem to think thevenin equivalent can change with load" Yes i think so if i change thel oad i am considering then i will have to devise a different equivalent circuit. An on your...
Well if one kind find an equivalent circuit, it will certainly not provide a different answer across that load, but if you cannot then its not useful
but like i said try solving the problem using Thevenin
Well like i said, the title of this thread should have been "the shortcomings of thevenin;s theorem", in truth actually i have derived it myself, without using any quotation from thevenin at any point, but i really wanted to know what people think about Thevenin. And i would like you to solve...
thts true, but i insist that Thevenin's theorem on face of it solves the problem, as you now have to deal with the "equivalence circuit" circuit and the load circuit in series but deep inside it distorts the actual state of the circuit, it deletes the history of the circuit save one. the...
Well you are not getting me, you can only find the voltage across the load after finding Vth but Vth does not represent the voltage across the load according to Thevenin and from my derivation.
Tnk God you now understand me, i am infact not saying Thevenin is wrong, he was rigt on point with his specifics, but it not that thevenin helps you to find voltage across the load directly, it rather finds another voltage.
I very much understand the meaning of the equivalent, it only means an equivalent circuit for the same voltage across the load, like i said earlier on i have an algebraic derivation for it. If you also say it behaves the same way as the original i would say that statement is not clear as...
I am not comparing it internally for no reason, you need to understand that by finding the equivalence circuit which is infact not equivalent to the actual circuit--it only tells you the equivalence of the circuit for a particular load--your new circuit would be misrepresenting the history of...
I think that's a verification rather than a derivative, in a derivative you assume, you don't have to quote any part of the theorem until you completely derive it. However that was insightful, when i did derive it myself, i did not realize other people have verified it. and its only when you...
I have checked that paper but there i can only see a statement of the theorem and a little introduction to what thevenin did then, though i they made reference to a circuit that proof the theorem, there is no algebraic or a more vigorous mathematical proof that shows that.
