Kirchhoff's circuit laws were originally obtained from experimental results. However, the current law can be viewed as an extension of the conservation of charge, since charge is the product of current and the time the current has been flowing. If the net charge in a region is constant, the current law will hold on the boundaries of the region.
Kirchhoff's laws, named after Gustav Kirchhoff, may refer to: Kirchhoff's circuit laws in electrical engineering; Kirchhoff's law of thermal radiation; Kirchhoff equations in fluid dynamics; Kirchhoff's three laws of spectroscopy; Kirchhoff's law of thermochemistry; Kirchhoff's theorem about the number of spanning trees in a graph
Kirchhoff's current law is the basis of nodal analysis. In electric circuits analysis, nodal analysis, node-voltage analysis, or the branch current method is a method of determining the voltage (potential difference) between "nodes" (points where elements or branches connect) in an electrical circuit in terms of the branch currents.
Figure 1: Schematic of an electrical circuit illustrating current division. Notation R T refers to the total resistance of the circuit to the right of resistor R X.. In electronics, a current divider is a simple linear circuit that produces an output current (I X) that is a fraction of its input current (I T).
Kirchhoff, Kirchoff or Kirchhoffer is a German surname. Notable people with the surname include: Notable people with the surname include: Adolf Kirchhoff (1826–1908), German classical scholar and epigrapher
In electrical engineering, electrical terms are associated into pairs called duals.A dual of a relationship is formed by interchanging voltage and current in an expression.
Harmonic balance is a method used to calculate the steady-state response of nonlinear differential equations, [1] and is mostly applied to nonlinear electrical circuits. [2] [3] [4] It is a frequency domain method for calculating the steady state, as opposed to the various time-domain steady-state methods.
The Tellegen theorem is applicable to a multitude of network systems. The basic assumptions for the systems are the conservation of flow of extensive quantities (Kirchhoff's current law, KCL) and the uniqueness of the potentials at the network nodes (Kirchhoff's voltage law, KVL).
