Your choice for First Step –
Write KVL for each mesh

Use the meshcurrent method to
solve for the voltage
vX.
This is not a good choice for
the first step, although we will
write KVL equations for most
meshes soon.

One purpose of the meshcurrent method is to find a
systematic way of writing the
correct number of equations.
It is important, then, to know
how many equations we are
going to write.

Your choice for First Step –
Write KCL for each node
© Brooks/Cole Publishing Co.
Use the meshcurrent method to
solve for the voltage
vX.
This is not a good choice.
The mesh-current method
involves writing KVL
equations, not KCL equations.
While we may write KCL
equations as needed for
constraint equations, it is not
the systematic step that we
take in using the mesh-current
method. This is not the way to
start this method.

Generally, it is a good thing to
simplify a circuit, where
we can do so. Here, you
may have noted that R4
and R3 are in parallel, and
can be combined into a
single resistor. We will
not even lose any
dependent source
variables. However, the
mesh-current method
does not require that we
simplify the circuits, and
sometimes we cannot do
so. Therefore, we
recommend that you go
back and try again.

This is the best choice.
The first step is to make sure
that we have identified all
the meshes and defined
the mesh currents.

dependent source variable
vX.

What if I like the Mesh-Current Method
much more than the Node-Voltage Method?
• If you like the Mesh-Current Method more than the NodeVoltage Method, you are in the majority of beginning
circuit-analysis students.
• However, if you note that this problem was the same one as
was solved in PWA_Prob01 in this module, you will find
that here the solution required 6 equations (really only 5,
when we ignore the A mesh equation that was not used).
When it was done with the Node-Voltage Method, there
were only 4 equations, and one of those was not used, and
we could solve it easily by hand.
• Even if you prefer one method, learn them both!
