Need help calculation Thevenin equivalent

Click For Summary
SUMMARY

The discussion focuses on calculating the Thevenin equivalent for a circuit viewed from terminals x, x', and y, y'. The equivalent resistance (R_eq) is determined to be 7.32 ohms. The user is struggling to calculate the Thevenin voltage (V_th) due to the absence of a current value for the output terminals. Clarification is provided that V_th can be calculated as R_th multiplied by the current when the output terminals are shorted.

PREREQUISITES
  • Understanding of Thevenin's Theorem
  • Basic circuit analysis techniques
  • Familiarity with equivalent resistance calculations
  • Knowledge of voltage and current relationships in circuits
NEXT STEPS
  • Study Thevenin's Theorem in detail
  • Learn how to calculate Thevenin voltage (V_th) using short-circuit current
  • Explore advanced circuit analysis techniques
  • Practice equivalent resistance calculations in various circuit configurations
USEFUL FOR

Electrical engineering students, circuit designers, and anyone involved in circuit analysis and design who needs to understand Thevenin equivalents.

On the first image i have to find the thevenin equivalent viewed from terminals x, x' & y, y'

i get the Req as 7.32ohms but now i am having trouble calculating the vth, i have no I to calculate

thanks in advance

Are you sure you put in the right picture? I see no terminals a&b, but only x,x',y and y'.

V_th is R_th * (current if you short the output terminals)
 
Yes i am sorry its terminal x, x' & y, y'
