Network Solution :-
To solve a circuit is to find the current and voltage in all branches.
1) Loop ( Mesh ) current method :-
Example( 1 ):-
Find the current through the 10 Ω resistor of the network
shown:
5Ω
2Ω
3Ω
8Ω
10Ω
15V

The loop equations are :-
Loop 1 :-
- ( 8+3 )I
1
+ 3I
2
+8I
3
+ 15 = 0
Loop 2 :-
- ( 3+5+2 )I
2
+ 3I
1
+5I
3
= 0
Loop 3 :-
- ( 10+8+5 )I
3
+ 8I
1
+5I
2
= 0
Rearrange the equations , then :-
-11I
1
+ 3I

+8I
3
= -15

- 10I
2
+5I
