MESH ANALYSIS (GENERAL APPROACH) The Currents To Be Defined Are Called Mesh Or Loop Currents. A Network

MESH ANALYSIS (GENERAL APPROACH) The currents to be defined are called mesh or loop currents. A network with two “windows” has had two mesh currents defined. Note that each forms a closed “loop” around the inside of each window; these loops are similar to the loops defined in the wire mesh fence. Hence the use of the term mesh for the loop currents The number of mesh currents required to analyze a network will equal the number of “windows” of the configuration.
