  2. Synchro - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Synchro

    A resolver is similar to a synchro, but has a stator with four leads, the windings being 90 degrees apart physically instead of 120 degrees. Its rotor might be synchro-like, or have two sets of windings 90 degrees apart. Although a pair of resolvers could theoretically operate like a pair of synchros, resolvers are used for computation.

  3. Synchroscope - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Synchroscope

    An example of synchroscope operation on a hydroelectric generator. Synchroscopes are used in any power plant that connects to an outside electrical grid and also in isolated plants containing more than one generator. Each generator must be synchronized with the others before being connected to the plant bus. If line voltages are unequal when ...

  4. List of plant hybrids - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_plant_hybrids

    This is a list of plant hybrids created intentionally or by chance and exploited commercially in agriculture or horticulture. The hybridization event mechanism is documented where known, along with the authorities who described it.

  5. Resolver (electrical) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Resolver_(electrical)

    Concept of rotor excited resolver Rotor excitation and response. The most common type of resolver is the brushless transmitter resolver (other types are described at the end). On the outside, this type of resolver may look like a small electrical motor having a stator and rotor. On the inside, the configuration of the wire windings makes it ...

  6. Variable-frequency transformer - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Variable-frequency_transformer

    With no applied torque, the shaft rotates due to the difference in frequency between the networks connected to the rotor and stator. A direct-current torque motor is mounted on the same shaft; changing the direction of torque applied to the shaft changes the direction of power flow.

  7. Raunkiær plant life-form - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Raunkiær_plant_life-form

    Raunkiær's life-form scheme has subsequently been revised and modified by various authors, [6] [7] [8] but the main structure has survived. Raunkiær's life-form system may be useful in researching the transformations of biotas and the genesis of some groups of phytophagous animals.

  8. Scott-T transformer - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Scott-T_transformer

    Standard Scott Connection 3 φ to 2 φ. Assuming the desired voltage is the same on the two and three phase sides, the Scott-T transformer connection (shown right) consists of a centre-tapped 1:1 ratio main transformer, T1, and a √ 3 /2(≈86.6%) ratio teaser transformer, T2.

  9. Climacteric (botany) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Climacteric_(botany)

    Generally, fleshy fruits can be divided into two groups based on the presence or absence of a respiratory increase at the onset of ripening. This respiratory increase—which is preceded, or accompanied, by a rise in ethylene—is called a climacteric, and there are marked differences in the development of climacteric and non-climacteric fruits.
