Question

which method for circuit analysis is best and why

Answer 1

Hello friend here is your
an Electrical Engineering student, and circuit analysis can be really confusing to me. I sort of understand the concepts of solving circuits, but I don't really know when to use which method. Are there any simple rules on choosing which method I should use for solving circuits? Node-voltage analysis? Superposition? Mesh analysis? Just use reduced linear equation system (or whatever it's called in English)?

Should I just calculate how many equations each method will take and pick the one with least equations?

Also, how do I know if I should use Thevenin's / Norton's generator to substitute a network?

Please note that this is not really for practical purposes - I'm studying for an exam, but all the assignments in my textbook are categorized by methods, so I know which one to use. However, in the exam that info is not given to students.

Thanks.

i hope it will help you
