Superposition theorem is one of those strokes of genius that takes a complex subject and simplifies it in a way that makes perfect sense. A theorem like Millman's certainly works well, but it is not quite obvious why it works so well. Superposition, on the other hand, is obvious.

The strategy used in the Superposition Theorem is to eliminate all but one source of power within a network at a time, using series/parallel analysis to determine voltage drops (and/or currents) within the modified network for each power source separately. Then, once voltage drops and/or currents have been determined for each power source working separately, the values are all "superimposed" on top of each other (added algebraically) to find the actual voltage drops/currents with all sources active.

Is superposition theorem valid for power?

no


Can superposition theorem be applied to nonlinear circuit?

No, superposition theorem can only be applied to linear circuits. Nonlinear circuits do not obey the principle of superposition because the relationship between current and voltage is not linear.


Why superposition theorem is not valid for power?

we cant consider two source at a time in superposition theorem....but power =v*i.so we cant calculate power.

Yes, the theorem still applies for AC.


Is the superposition theorem applicable to non linear network why?

Yes, superposition theorem holds true in AC circuits as well. You must first convert an AC circuit to the phasor domain and the same rules apply.
