  2. Spin-transfer torque - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Spin-transfer_torque

    A simple model of spin-transfer torque for two anti-aligned layers. Current flowing out of the fixed layer is spin-polarized. When it reaches the free layer the majority spins relax into lower-energy states of opposite spin, applying a torque to the free layer in the process. A schematic diagram of a spin valve/magnetic tunnel junction.

  3. Motor constants - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Motor_constants

    is the motor torque constant (SI unit, newton–metre per ampere, N·m/A), see below If two motors with the same K v {\displaystyle K_{\text{v}}} and torque work in tandem, with rigidly connected shafts, the K v {\displaystyle K_{\text{v}}} of the system is still the same assuming a parallel electrical connection.

    A kind of motor starter that does not reduce the voltage at the motor terminals. direct torque control A method of estimating motor torque as part of a variable speed motor drive. discrete cosine transform A mathematical technique for representing a sampled signal as a sum of cosine waves of different frequencies. discrete Fourier transform

  5. Direct torque control - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Direct_torque_control

    Direct torque control (DTC) is one method used in variable-frequency drives to control the torque (and thus finally the speed) of three-phase AC electric motors.This involves calculating an estimate of the motor's magnetic flux and torque based on the measured voltage and current of the motor.

  6. Valve actuator - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Valve_actuator

    The blue valve body is visible in-line with the pipe. The valve actuator opens or closes the butterfly disc of the valve based on electrical signals sent to the actuator. Another valve actuator is visible in the background, with windows to indicate the valve position. A valve actuator is the mechanism for opening and closing a valve. Manually ...

  7. Circle diagram - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Circle_diagram

    The circle diagram can be drawn for alternators, synchronous motors, transformers, induction motors. The Heyland diagram is an approximate representation of a circle diagram applied to induction motors, which assumes that stator input voltage, rotor resistance and rotor reactance are constant and stator resistance and core loss are zero.

  8. Tractive effort - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tractive_effort

    The term tractive effort is often qualified as starting tractive effort, continuous tractive effort and maximum tractive effort.These terms apply to different operating conditions, but are related by common mechanical factors: input torque to the driving wheels, the wheel diameter, coefficient of friction (μ) between the driving wheels and supporting surface, and the weight applied to the ...

  9. Tesla valve - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tesla_valve

    A Tesla valve, called a valvular conduit by its inventor, is a fixed-geometry passive check valve. It allows a fluid to flow preferentially in one direction, without moving parts. The device is named after Nikola Tesla , who was awarded U.S. patent 1,329,559 in 1920 for its invention.
