Power factor (pf) is the ratio between real power (P) flowing to the load, and the apparent power (S) in the circuit: pf = P/S. It is a sinusoidal waveform and therefore expressed as a dimensionless ...

Recent studies indicate the level of knowledge and implementation of motor system energy-efficiency measures is low. A plethora of information on motor system design, best practices, purchasing, and ...

American Petroleum Institute's pressure vessel and tank committee recently concluded a 5-year effort to revise Standard 650 that provides design rules for reasonable margins against failure of ...

The design challenges for a high-power electronic load extend beyond the electronics. The best electronic load circuit will not function well without a good connection to the device under test. The ...
