  2. Bang–bang control - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bang–bang_control

    A water heater that maintains desired temperature by turning the applied power on and off (as opposed to continuously varying electrical voltage or current) based on temperature feedback is an example application of bang–bang control. Although the applied power switches from one discrete state to another, the water temperature will remain ...

  3. Circle diagram - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Circle_diagram

    The circle diagram can be drawn for alternators, synchronous motors, transformers, induction motors. The Heyland diagram is an approximate representation of a circle diagram applied to induction motors, which assumes that stator input voltage, rotor resistance and rotor reactance are constant and stator resistance and core loss are zero.

  4. Control grid - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Control_grid

    The control grid is an electrode used in amplifying thermionic valves (vacuum tubes) such as the triode, tetrode and pentode, used to control the flow of electrons from the cathode to the anode (plate) electrode. The control grid usually consists of a cylindrical screen or helix of fine wire surrounding the cathode, and is surrounded in turn by ...

  6. Hall effect - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hall_effect

    Hall effect measurement setup for electrons. Initially, the electrons follow the curved arrow, due to the magnetic force. At some distance from the current-introducing contacts, electrons pile up on the left side and deplete from the right side, which creates an electric field ξ y in the direction of the assigned V H.

  7. Electronic band structure - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electronic_band_structure

    The existence of these states assumes that the electrons travel in a static potential without dynamically interacting with lattice vibrations, other electrons, photons, etc. The above assumptions are broken in a number of important practical situations, and the use of band structure requires one to keep a close check on the limitations of band ...

  8. Water heating - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Water_heating

    An 80 US gal (300 L; 67 imp gal) electric storage tank water heater was able to have a minimum energy factor of 86% under the pre-2015 standard, while under the 2015 standard, the minimum energy factor for an 80-gallon electric storage tank water heater is now 197%, which is only possible with heat pump technology. This rating measures ...

  9. Valence and conduction bands - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Valence_and_conduction_bands

    In solid-state physics, the valence band and conduction band are the bands closest to the Fermi level, and thus determine the electrical conductivity of the solid. In nonmetals, the valence band is the highest range of electron energies in which electrons are normally present at absolute zero temperature, while the conduction band is the lowest range of vacant electronic states.
