Transcribed Image Text:Supernode:
In Figure below; the branch current through the 6 V source is certainly no
known and cannot be directly expressed using Ohm's law
6 V
4 mA
6 mA
312 kn.
To solve this problem, we recall that (N-1) linearly independent equations
are required to determine the (N-1) nonreference node voltages in an N-node
circuit. Since our network has three nodes (Le /N-3), we ned two lincarly
independent equations. Now note that if somehow.one of the node.voltages is
known, we immediately know the other (i.e., if K, is known, then FV-6. If V
is known, then V=Vz+6, Therefore, the difference in potential between the two
nodes is constrained by the voltage source and, hence,
This constraint equation is one of the two linearly independent equations
needed to determine the node voltages. Next consider the network in Figure
below, in which the 6V source is completely enclosed within the dashed surface.

The constraint equation governs this dashed portion of the network. The
remaining equation is obtained by applying KCL to this dashed surface, which is
commonly called a supernode Now we can apply KCL for the supernode as:
610-3+
