    where: = (), = = (), is the modified Reynolds number, is the packed bed friction factor,; is the pressure drop across the bed,; is the length of the bed (not the column), is the equivalent spherical diameter of the packing,

  3. Wimshurst machine - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wimshurst_machine

    An engineering drawing of a Wimshurst machine, from Hawkins Electrical Guide Wimshurst machine in operation Quadruple sector-less Wimshurst machine. The Wimshurst machine or Wimshurst influence machine is an electrostatic generator, a machine for generating high voltages developed between 1880 and 1883 by British inventor James Wimshurst (1832–1903).

  4. Darcy–Weisbach equation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Darcy–Weisbach_equation

    If the value of the friction factor is 0.064, then the Darcy friction factor is plotted in the Moody diagram. Note that the nonzero digits in 0.064 are the numerator in the formula for the laminar Darcy friction factor: f D = ⁠ 64 / Re ⁠. If the value of the friction factor is 0.016, then the Fanning friction factor is plotted in the Moody ...

  5. Darcy friction factor formulae - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Darcy_friction_factor_formulae

    In fluid dynamics, the Darcy friction factor formulae are equations that allow the calculation of the Darcy friction factor, a dimensionless quantity used in the Darcy–Weisbach equation, for the description of friction losses in pipe flow as well as open-channel flow.

  6. Power conditioner - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Power_conditioner

    A power conditioner (also known as a line conditioner or power line conditioner) is a device intended to improve the quality of the power that is delivered to electrical load equipment. The term most often refers to a device that acts in one or more ways to deliver a voltage of the proper level and characteristics to enable load equipment to ...

    NEMA 1-15P (two-pole, no ground) and NEMA 5-15P (two-pole with ground pin) plugs are used on common domestic electrical equipment, and NEMA 5-15R is the standard 15-ampere electric receptacle (outlet) found in the United States, and under relevant national standards, in Canada (CSA C22.2 No. 42 [1]), Mexico (NMX-J-163-ANCE) and Japan (JIS C 8303).

  9. Electrostatic generator - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electrostatic_generator

    An electrostatic generator, or electrostatic machine, is an electrical generator that produces static electricity, or electricity at high voltage and low continuous current. The knowledge of static electricity dates back to the earliest civilizations, but for millennia it remained merely an interesting and mystifying phenomenon , without a ...
