  2. Electrodynamic tether - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electrodynamic_tether

    Medium close-up view, captured with a 70 mm camera, shows tethered satellite system deployment.. Electrodynamic tethers (EDTs) are long conducting wires, such as one deployed from a tether satellite, which can operate on electromagnetic principles as generators, by converting their kinetic energy to electrical energy, or as motors, converting electrical energy to kinetic energy.

  3. Birkeland current - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Birkeland_current

    A Birkeland current (also known as field-aligned current, FAC) is a set of electrical currents that flow along geomagnetic field lines connecting the Earth's magnetosphere to the Earth's high latitude ionosphere. In the Earth's magnetosphere, the currents are driven by the solar wind and interplanetary magnetic field (IMF) and by bulk motions ...

  4. Current limiting - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Current_limiting

    Current limiting is the practice of imposing a limit on the current that may be delivered to a load to protect the circuit generating or transmitting the current from harmful effects due to a short-circuit or overload. The term "current limiting" is also used to define a type of overcurrent protective device. According to the 2020 NEC/NFPA 70 ...

  5. Harbor Freight Tools - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Harbor_Freight_Tools

    www.harborfreight.com. Harbor Freight Tools, commonly referred to as Harbor Freight, is an American privately held tool and equipment retailer, headquartered in Calabasas, California. It operates a chain of retail stores, as well as an e-commerce business. The company employs over 28,000 people in the United States, [5] and has over 1,500 ...

  6. Inrush current limiter - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Inrush_current_limiter

    An inrush current limiter is a component used to limit inrush current to avoid gradual damage to components and avoid blowing fuses or tripping circuit breakers. Negative temperature coefficient (NTC) thermistors and fixed resistors are often used to limit inrush current. NTC thermistors can be used as inrush-current limiting devices in power ...

  7. Magnetohydrodynamics - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Magnetohydrodynamics

    Researchers have developed global models using MHD to simulate phenomena within Earth's magnetosphere, such as the location of Earth's magnetopause [24] (the boundary between the Earth's magnetic field and the solar wind), the formation of the ring current, auroral electrojets, [25] and geomagnetically induced currents.

  8. Telluric current - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Telluric_current

    A telluric current (from Latin tellūs 'earth'), or Earth current, [1] is an electric current that flows underground or through the sea, resulting from natural and human-induced causes. These currents have extremely low frequency and traverse large areas near or at Earth 's surface. Earth's crust and mantle are host to telluric currents, with ...

  9. Ring current - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ring_current

    Schematic view of the different current systems which shape the Earth's magnetosphere. Earth 's ring current is responsible for shielding the lower latitudes of the Earth from magnetospheric electric fields. It therefore has a large effect on the electrodynamics of geomagnetic storms. The ring current system consists of a band, at a distance of ...
