Question

State the maximum power transfer theorem for AC network

Answer 1

Maximum Power Transfer Theorem Statement

The maximum power transfer theorem states that in a linear , bilateral DC network , maximum power is delivered to the load when the load resistance is equal to the internal resistance of a source.

If it is an independent voltage source, then its series resistance (internal resistance Rs) or if it is independent current source, then its parallel resistance (internal resistance Rs) must equal to the load resistance RL to deliver maximum power to the load.

Answer 2

Maximum Power Transfer Theorem for AC Circuits. It can be stated as in an active network, the maximum power is transferred to the load when the load impedance is equal to the complex conjugate of an equivalent impedance of a given network as viewed from the load terminals.
