  2. Three-phase electric power - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Three-phase_electric_power

    A three-phase motor is more compact and less costly than a single-phase motor of the same voltage class and rating, and single-phase AC motors above 10 hp (7.5 kW) are uncommon. Three-phase motors also vibrate less and hence last longer than single-phase motors of the same power used under the same conditions. [32]

    For example, balanced two-phase power can be obtained from a three-phase network by using two specially constructed transformers, with taps at 50% and 86.6% of the primary voltage. This Scott T connection produces a true two-phase system with 90° time difference between the phases.

    It is designed for three phase applications and is rated at 10 A, 250 V/440 V. The socket will also accept types 11 and 12 plugs, and the Europlug. The type 25 plug and socket has 3 rectangular pins, 4 mm x 5 mm, plus 2 flat pins (for L2 and L3). It is designed for three phase applications and is rated at 16 A, 250 V/440 V.

  5. Polyphase system - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Polyphase_system

    One voltage cycle of a three-phase system. A polyphase system (the term coined by Silvanus Thompson) is a means of distributing alternating-current (AC) electrical power that utilizes more than one AC phase, which refers to the phase offset value (in degrees) between AC in multiple conducting wires; phases may also refer to the corresponding terminals and conductors, as in color codes.

  6. Fluidized bed reactor - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fluidized_bed_reactor

    A fluidized bed reactor (FBR) is a type of reactor device that can be used to carry out a variety of multiphase chemical reactions. In this type of reactor, a fluid (gas or liquid) is passed through a solid granular material (usually a catalyst) at high enough speeds to suspend the solid and cause it to behave as though it were a fluid.

  7. Triple phase boundary - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Triple_phase_boundary

    A triple phase boundary (TPB) is a geometrical class of phase boundary and the location of contact between three different phases.A simple example of a TPB is a coastline where land, air and sea meet to create an energetic location driven by solar, wind and wave energy capable of supporting a high level of biodiversity.

  8. Langmuir–Blodgett trough - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Langmuir–Blodgett_trough

    [3] In the case of liquid-liquid experiments where the compression is performed at the interface of a polar liquid such as water and a dispersive liquid such as oil, the trough is commonly manufactured from POM (polyoxymethylene). POM is more hydrophilic and aids in keeping the liquid-liquid interface stable.

  9. Test method - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Test_method

    It is a definitive procedure that produces a test result. [1] In order to ensure accurate and relevant test results, a test method should be "explicit, unambiguous, and experimentally feasible.", [2] as well as effective [3] and reproducible. [4]
