Thanks Electrician
Yes, I totally see that sign change, that was an error of mine.
Funny thing is that I had it right the first time but got the wrong answer so in trying to get the right answer that was a change I made.
I had used an online calculator to try and get the answer, I must have...
Carrying on from this as I am getting nowhere..
((V1-V20) / Z1) - (V20/Z4) - (V30/Z5) + ((V2+V30)/Z3) = 0
V30 = V20 - V3
((V1-V20) / Z1) - (V20/Z4) - ((V20-V3)/Z5) + ((V2+(V20-V3))/Z3) = 0
When I put the values into get V20 and divide that by Z4 I get 8.78 - j16.59
Not the answer I got for the...
Hi Electrician
Yes indeed, that was me being lazy and not putting all parentheses in, silly of me.
What I have is this:
((V1-V20) / Z1) - (V20/Z4) - (V30/Z5) + ((V2+V30)/Z3) = 0
V20-V30 = 14.14+j14-14
Hi Rob1985
I too am working on this and just can't seem to get it right.
My equation is similar to yours.
I have used different terminology but if I use your terminology I have:
(V1-V20 / Z1) - (V20/Z4) - (V30/Z5) + ((V2+V30)/Z3)
Obviously wrong as does not get the answer from mesh analysis...
Thanks for your input, I really appreciate your thoughts.
Once I am quite certain what I now have is coorect I shall try the method mentioned as well.
Good thing you asked me to do the math again, I don't know how I got it wrong so many times.
Oh man, I think I got it. Just did the same mistake over and over again somehow.
Getting a beer, leaving it alone for a while, and coming back seem to have done it.
Not got SPICE now but pretty certain I have it now.
Now have I = 9.99exp-10
That's the 10 I was looking for.
:-)
Calculated current was 9.998nA. (So 10nA)
This though should be 1nA . with 1nA the simulation works.
Somewhere is a factor 10 mistake I presume but I son,t see it.
