Thevenin Theorem
By using Voltage Divider Rule (VDR);
(20−j30)
Vth = V(20-j30) Ω = x j36V = ( . + . ) V
(20−j30 + j6 + 8)
Step 3
Draw the Thevenin equivalent circuit with the 10Ω load connected to the circuit.
Figure 2.8(f): Thevenin equivalent circuit
Step 4
Calculate the current that flows through the10Ω load.
(9.53 + j33.88 )
i(10) Ω = (9.118 + j3.529) + (10) = (0.798 + j1.625) Amps
The current flowing through the impedance (10) Ω = (0.798 + j1.625) Amps
Example 9
Calculate the current that goes through 10Ω using Thevenin’s theorem.
