    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Liquid_rheostat

    Liquid rheostats used as motor start switches, circa 1900. A liquid rheostat or water rheostat [1] or salt water rheostat is a type of variable resistor.This may be used as a dummy load or as a starting resistor for large slip ring motors.

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Potentiometer

    Wire-wound rheostats made with ratings up to several thousand watts are used in applications such as DC motor drives, electric welding controls, or in the controls for generators. The rating of the rheostat is given with the full resistance value and the allowable power dissipation is proportional to the fraction of the total device resistance ...

  4. List of resistors - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_resistors

    The resistance value is determined by cutting a helix through the coating rather than by etching, similar to the way carbon resistors are made. The result is a reasonable tolerance (0.5%, 1%, or 2%) and a temperature coefficient that is generally between 50 and 100 ppm/K. [ 9 ] Metal film resistors possess good noise characteristics and low non ...

  5. Liquid resistor - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Liquid_resistor

    Fixed-value liquid resistors are typically used where very high power dissipation is required. They are used in the rotor circuits of large slip ring induction motors to control starting current, torque and to limit large electrical fault currents (while other protection systems operate to clear or isolate the fault).
