SUPER NODE



SUPER NODE:
           Consider a circuit shown in figure. In this circuit the nodes labelled V and V are connected directly through a voltage source without any circuit element. The region surrounding a voltage source which connects the two nodes directly is called super node.
 

        In such a case the nodes in a super node region can be analyzed separately and the relation between such node voltage's and a source voltages connecting then can be separately obtained in this circuit shown in figure we can write .
At super node:
V2-Vx-V3=0
V2-V3=Vx...................1equation
Applying KCL at node V2 and V3:
i1+i2+i3+i4=0
((V2-V1)/R2)+(V2/R3)+(V3/R4)+(V3-V1)/R1 ...........2rquation
Applying KCL at node V1:
i+i1+i4=0
i+((V2-V1)/R2)+((V3-V1)/R1)=0
((V2-V1)/R2)+((V3-V1)/R1)=-i .................3equation
