Bet File - Verification of Superposition Theorem

The document describes an experiment to verify the superposition theorem for a circuit with multiple voltage sources. The superposition theorem states that the total current through a branch is equal to the sum of the currents contributed by each independent source. The experiment involves measuring the current through a resistor branch with both sources active, then with one source removed and the other active, and vice versa. The results are compared to verify whether they match the total current predicted by the superposition theorem.

VERIFICATION OF SUPERPOSITION THEOREM

AIM:-
To verify the superposition theorem for the given
circuit.
APPARATUS REQUIRED:-
THEORY:
SUPERPOSITION THEOREM:-
Superposition theorem states that in a lumped
,linear, bilateral network consisting more number of
sources each branch current(voltage) is the
algebraic sum all currents ( branch voltages), each
of which is determined by considering one source at
a time and removing all other sources. In removing
the sources, voltage and current sources are
replaced by internal resistances.
PROCEDURE:-
1. Connect the circuit as per the fig (1).
2. Adjust the output voltage of sources X and Y to
appropriate values (Say 15V and20V respectively).
3. Note down the current (IL) through the 560 0hm
resistor by using the ammeter.
4. Connect the circuit as per fig (2) and set the
source Y (20V) to 0V.
5. Note down the current ( ILl) through 560ohm
resistor by using ammeter.
6. Connect the circuit as per fig(3) and set the
source X (15V) to 0V and source Y to 20V.
7. Note down the current (ILll) through the 560 ohm
resistor branch by using ammeter.
8. Reduce the output voltage of the sources X and Y
to 0V and switch off the supply.
9. Disconnect the circuit.
PRECAUTIONS:-
1. Initially keep the RPS output voltage knob in
zero volt position.
2. Set the ammeter pointer at zero position.
3. Take the readings without parallax error.
4. Avoid loose connections.
5. Avoid short circuit of RPS output terminals.
