  2. Nonintrusive load monitoring - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nonintrusive_load_monitoring

    NILM systems can also identify appliances with a series of individual changes in power draw. These appliances are modeled as finite-state machines. A dishwasher, for example, has heaters and motors that turn on and off during a typical dishwashing cycle. These will be identified as clusters, and power draw for the entire cluster will be recorded.

  3. Capability curve - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Capability_curve

    The fixed speed wind turbines without a power converter (also known as "Type 1" and "Type 2" [5]) cannot be used for voltage control. They simply absorb the reactive power (like any typical induction machine), so a switched capacitor bank is usually used to correct the power factor to unity.

  4. Standby power - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Standby_power

    Standby power, also called vampire power [1], vampire draw, phantom load, ghost load, or leaking electricity, refers to how electronic and electrical appliances consume electric power. At the same time, they are switched off (but are designed to draw some power) or in standby mode. It only occurs because some devices claim to be "switched off ...

  5. Exploded-view drawing - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Exploded-view_drawing

    An exploded-view drawing is a diagram, picture, schematic or technical drawing of an object, that shows the relationship or order of assembly of various parts. [1]It shows the components of an object slightly separated by distance, or suspended in surrounding space in the case of a three-dimensional exploded diagram.

  6. Wire drawing - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wire_drawing

    Usually the wire will require more than one draw, through successively smaller dies, to reach the desired size. The American wire gauge scale is based on this. This can be done on a small scale with a draw plate, or on a large commercial scale using automated machinery. [1] [2] The process of wire drawing changes material properties due to cold ...

  7. USB hardware - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/USB_hardware

    Optionally, the hub controller may draw power for its operation as a low-power device, but all high-power ports must draw from the hub's self-power. Where devices (for example, high-speed disk drives) require more power than a high-power device can draw, [49] they function erratically, if at all, from bus power of a single port. USB provides ...

  9. Fishfinder - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fishfinder

    When the wave strikes something such as a fish, it is reflected back and displays size, composition, and shape of the object. The exact extent of what can be discerned depends on the frequency and power of the pulse transmitted. Knowing the speed of the wave in the water, the distance to the object that reflected the wave can be determined.
