Thevenin’s Theorem and Maximum Power Transfer Circuit (Part 2)

This lab focuses on the Thevenin equivalent and maximum power transfer theorems. Complex circuits are often replaced with their Thevenin equivalent to simplify analysis. For example, in the analysis of large industrial power systems the Thevenin equivalent is used in short circuit studies. Maximum power transfer is also an important concept which allows the designer to determine an optimal design when power is a constraint.
