THE NODE VOLTAGE METHOD

THE NODE VOLTAGE METHOD

In the node voltage method, one of the principal nodes is selected as the referenceand equations based on KCL are written at the other principal nodes At each of these other principalnodes, a voltage is assigned, where it is understood that this is a voltage with respect to the referencenode. These voltages are the unknowns and, when determined by a suitable method, result in the network solution

[(V1 – 12)/3] + [(V1 -0)/6] + [(V1 –V2)/10] = 0

 

[(V2 – V1)/ 10 + [(V2 – 0)/12] -2 =0

 

then we can solve the two equation to get the value

of v1 and v2
