  2. Electrical reactance - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electrical_reactance

    In electrical circuits, reactance is the opposition presented to alternating current by inductance and capacitance. [1] Along with resistance, it is one of two elements of impedance; however, while both elements involve transfer of electrical energy, no dissipation of electrical energy as heat occurs in reactance; instead, the reactance stores energy until a quarter-cycle later when the energy ...

  3. Load bank - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Load_bank

    A capacitive load bank or capacitor bank is similar to an inductive load bank in rating and purpose, except leading power factor loads are created, so reactive power is supplied from these loads to the system instead of vice versa. Hence for a mostly inductive load this can bring the power factor closer to unity improving the quality of supply.

  4. Inductance - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Inductance

    Inductive reactance is the opposition of an inductor to an alternating current. [21] It is defined analogously to electrical resistance in a resistor, as the ratio of the amplitude (peak value) of the alternating voltage to current in the component = = Reactance has units of ohms.

  5. Capacitive power supply - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Capacitive_power_supply

    By changing the value of the example in the diagram by a capacitor with a value of 330 nF, a current of approximately 20 mA can be provided, as the reactance of the 330 nF capacitor at 50 Hz calculates to = and applying Ohm's law, that limits the current to . This way up to 48 white LEDs in series can be powered (for example, 3.1 V/20 mA/20000 ...

  6. LC circuit - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/LC_circuit

    An LC circuit, also called a resonant circuit, tank circuit, or tuned circuit, is an electric circuit consisting of an inductor, represented by the letter L, and a capacitor, represented by the letter C, connected together.

  7. RL circuit - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/RL_circuit

    A resistor–inductor circuit (RL circuit), or RL filter or RL network, is an electric circuit composed of resistors and inductors driven by a voltage or current source. [1] A first-order RL circuit is composed of one resistor and one inductor, either in series driven by a voltage source or in parallel driven by a current source.

  8. Coupling coefficient of resonators - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Coupling_coefficient_of...

    Summation of the inductive and capacitive coupling coefficients is performed by formula [3] = + +. (8) This formula is derived from the definition (6) and formulas (4) and (7). Note that the sign of the coupling coefficient itself is of no importance. Frequency response of the filter will not change if signs of all the coupling coefficients ...

  9. Aluminum electrolytic capacitor - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/.../Aluminum_electrolytic_capacitor

    A capacitor's lifetime for different operational conditions can be estimated using special formulas or graphs specified in the data sheets of serious manufacturers. They use different ways achieve the specification; some provide special formulas, [ 55 ] [ 56 ] [ 57 ] others specify their capacitor lifetime calculation with graphs that take into ...
