Internal Resistance :-
Every practical voltage or current source has an internal resistance that
adversely affects the operation of the source.
In a practical voltage source the internal resistance represent as a resistor in series
with an ideal voltage source.
In a practical current source the internal resistance represent as a resistor in
parallel with an ideal current source, as shown in the following figures.

Dr. Sameir Abd Alkhalik Aziez

Where
R
o
= Internal resistance
R
L
= load resistance
According to K.V.L.
E
– V
o
– V = 0
E
– IR
o
– V = 0
V = E
– IR
o
Note that an ideal sources have R
o
= 0
We can representing a load as a group of parallel resistances.
Hence as the load will increase the current will be increase ( because the
resistance will decrease ) and the voltage will decrease .
This is because the drop voltage due to the internal resistance , as shown in the
following figure :-

As seen
from the above
figure , if R
o2
> R
o1
, then V
2
< V
1
and the drop voltage will be ( E
– V
2
) ,
which is greater than ( E
–V
1
) .
Example :- For the following circuit diagram , calculate I and V
L
for the
following cases :-
Solution :-
a.) By apply K.V.L.
E
– V
o
– V = 0
120

– IR
L
= 0
120
– 0 – 22I = 0
120 = 22I
I = 5.46 A
V
L
= I R
L
= 5.46 * 22 = 120 V
b.) E
– V
o
– V = 0
120
– 8I – 22I = 0
120
– 30I = 0
a)
Ro = 0 Ω
b)
Ro = 8 Ω
c)
Ro = 16 Ω

120 = 30I
I = 4 A
V
L
= I R
L
= 4 * 22 = 88 V
c.) E
– V
o
– V = 0
120
– 16I – 22I = 0
120
– 38I = 0
120 = 38I
I = 3.16 A
V
L
= I R
L
= 3.16 * 22 = 69.5 V
Then we can conclude that as R
o
increase the total current and load voltage will
decrease.
Example :- A circuit have load one with 20
Ω and 4A , and load two with 10 Ω
& 6A . Find the current for load three which have 30
Ω ?

Solution :-
1)

2)

From eq. (1) & (2) , we have
20 = ( 6
– 4 ) R
o
R
o
= 10 Ω ; sub. this result it in eq. (1) , then
80 = E
– 4 * 10
E = 120 V
Now , we Apply K.V.L. for load 3 ;
V

= E
– IR
o
30I = 120
– 10I
40I = 120
I = 3 A for load three.
See from this example that the current will increase as the load will decrease
with constant E & R

.
Example :- A circuit have V

= 25 v and I
sc
= 50 A , find its current and R
