  2. Current loop - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Current_loop

    Only one current level can be present at any time. A major application of current loops is the industry de facto standard 420 mA current loop for process control applications, where they are extensively used to carry signals from process instrumentation to proportional–integral–derivative (PID) controllers , supervisory control and data ...

  3. Kolmogorov microscales - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kolmogorov_microscales

    where ε is the average rate of dissipation of turbulence kinetic energy per unit mass, and; ν is the kinematic viscosity of the fluid.; Typical values of the Kolmogorov length scale, for atmospheric motion in which the large eddies have length scales on the order of kilometers, range from 0.1 to 10 millimeters; for smaller flows such as in laboratory systems, η may be much smaller.

  4. Rogowski coil - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rogowski_coil

    In practice, an instrument will use a lossy integrator with a time constant much less than the lowest frequency of interest. The lossy integrator will reduce the effects of offset voltages and set the constant of integration to zero. At high frequencies, the Rogowski coil's inductance will decrease its output. The inductance of a toroid is [8]

  5. Fowler Calculators - Wikipedia

    Following the patent and release of Harold's Long Scale calculator featuring two knobs on the outside rim in 1914, he designed the Magnum Long Scale calculator in 1927. [ 6 ] [ 7 ] As the name "Magnum" implies, it was a fairly large device at 4.5 inches in diameter—about 1.5 inches more than Fowler's average non-Magnum-series calculators. [ 8 ]

  6. Dennard scaling - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dennard_scaling

    Specifically, leakage current and threshold voltage do not scale with size, and so the power density increases with scaling. This eventually led to a power density that is too high. This is the "power wall", which caused Intel to cancel Tejas and Jayhawk in 2004. [9] Since around 2005–2007 Dennard scaling appears to have broken down.

  7. Instrumentation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Instrumentation

    Transistor electronics enabled wiring to replace pipes, initially with a range of 20 to 100mA at up to 90V for loop powered devices, reducing to 4 to 20mA at 12 to 24V in more modern systems. A transmitter is a device that produces an output signal, often in the form of a 420 mA electrical current signal, although many other options using ...

  8. Transimpedance amplifier - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Transimpedance_amplifier

    The feedback factor, plotted as a reciprocal, is labeled 1/β. In Fig. 4 the 1/β curve and A OL form an isosceles triangle with the frequency axis. The two sides have equal but opposite slopes, since one is the result of a first-order pole, and the other of a first-order zero. Each slope has a magnitude of 20 dB/decade, corresponding to a ...

    For example, setting 7.5 on one scale over 10 on the other scale, the user can see that at the same time 1.5 is over 2, 2.25 is over 3, 3 is over 4, 3.75 is over 6, 4.5 is over 6, and 6 is over 8, among other pairs.
