 Maximum Power Transfer Theorem                                                           LAB 07
Lab # 07: Maximum Power Transfer Theorem
Learning Objective:
      To verify the Maximum Power Transfer Theorem.
      Effect of different loads for Maximum Power Transfer.
Equipment Required:
      Digital multi-meter
      Oscilloscope
      Function Generator
      Breadboard
      Probes [3]
      Resistors (1.5KΩ,2.2KΩ)
      Capacitor (100nF)
      Inductor
Theory:
In the DC case, maximum power transfer is achieved by setting the load resistance equal to the
source’s internal resistance. This is not true for the AC case. Instead, the load should be set to
complex conjugate of the source impedance, the complex conjugate having the same magnitude
as the original but with the opposite sign for the angle. By using the complex conjugate, the
load and source reactive components will cancel out leaving a purely resistive circuit similar
to the DC case. When calculating the true load power, care must be taken to remember that the
load voltage appears across complex load impedance. Only the real portion of this voltage
appears across the resistive component, and only the resistive component dissipates power.

Procedure:
  1. Build the circuit of Figure 7.1.
  2. Replace the generator with a 50  resistor and determine Thevenin impedance at 10
     kHz of the circuit. Record this value in Table 1, including both magnitude and phase.
  3. Determine the VTH experimentally and theoretically and notes these values in table 1.
  4. Determine the load impedance which should achieve maximum power transfer
     according to the theorem and record in Table 1.
  5. Finally, determine values for RL and CL or LL to achieve the load impedance and
     record in Table 1.
  6. Choose two different values of RL and LL or CL higher than the value in step 4.Note
     the value in Table 2.
  7. Choose two Different values of RL and LL or CL lower than the value in step 4.Note
     the value in Table 3.
