    The experiment involves: 1. Analyzing the circuit with each source individually and calculating the voltages 2. Adding the individual voltage calculations to find the total voltages with both sources active 3. Building the circuit in Multisim to compare theoretical and experimental results The purpose is to illustrate how the superposition theorem allows analyzing multi-source AC circuits by considering each source separately and then summing the results.

    To verify the AC Superposition Theorem


    PRE LAB TASK

    Objective:

    This exercise examines the analysis of multi-source AC circuits using the Superposition Theorem.
    In particular, sources with differing frequencies will be used to illustrate the contributions of each
    source to the combined result.

    Introduction:

    The Superposition Theorem can be used to analyze multi-source AC linear bilateral networks. Each
    source is considered in turn, with the remaining sources replaced by their internal impedance, and
    appropriate series-parallel analysis techniques employed. The resulting signals are then summed to
    produce the combined output signal. To see this process more clearly, the exercise will utilize two
    sources operating at different frequencies. Note that as each source has a different frequency, the
    inductor and capacitor appear as different reactance to the two sources.

    LAB SESSION
    Lab task
    Examine the AC superposition theorem for an RLC circuit.

    Equipment and Materials

    ➢ Function generator
    ➢ Oscilloscope
    ➢ .1uF
    ➢ 33 mH
    ➢ 1k Oham
    Experimental Procedure

    1. Typical function generators have 50 Ω internal impedance. These are not shown in the circuit of
    Figure 7.1. To test the Superposition Theorem, sources E1 and E2 will be examined separately and
    then together.

    Source One Only

    2. Consider the circuit of Figure 7.1 with C=.1 µF, L=33mH, R=10 kΩ, using only source E1=10 V
    p-p at 10 kHz and with source E2 short with the wire. Using standard series- parallel techniques,
    calculate the voltages across VC, VR, and VL. in the calculations. Record the results in Table 7.1.
    Source Two Only
    3. Consider the circuit of Figure 7.1 using only source E2=5 V p-p at 10 kHz and with source E1
    short with the wire. Using standard series-parallel techniques, calculate the voltages across VC, VR,
    and VL. Record the results in Table 7.2.

    Sources One and Two

    4. Consider the circuit of Figure 7.1 using both sources, E1=10V p-p at 10 kHz and E2=5 V p-p at
    10 kHz. Add the calculated voltages across VC, VR, and VL from Tables 7.1 and 7.2. Record the
    results in Table 7.3. Make a note of the expected maxima and minima of these waves and sketch
    how the combination should appear on the scope.
    Multisim:

    5. Build the circuit of Figure 7.1 in Multisim. Using Transient Analysis, determine the voltage
    across the resistor and compare it to the theoretical and measured values recorded in Table 7.3.
