  2. Transformer - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Transformer

    Transformers can be classified in many ways, such as the following: Power rating: From a fraction of a volt-ampere (VA) to over a thousand MVA. Duty of a transformer: Continuous, short-time, intermittent, periodic, varying. Frequency range: Power-frequency, audio-frequency, or radio-frequency. Voltage class: From a few volts to hundreds of ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Transformer_types

    A Flyback transformer is a high-voltage, high-frequency transformer used in plasma balls and with cathode-ray tubes (CRTs). It provides the high (often several kV) anode DC voltage required for operation of CRTs. Variations in anode voltage supplied by the flyback can result in distortions in the image displayed by the CRT.

    The mathematical relation between input and output, usually expressed in terms of frequency or complex frequency (s-domain). transformer oil testing Examination of transformer oil for its insulating strength, dissolved moisture and other properties, to ensure it is still suitable for use. transformer oil

  5. Sweep frequency response analysis - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sweep_frequency_response...

    An initial SFRA test is carried out to obtain the signature of the transformer frequency response by injecting various discreet frequencies. This reference is then used for future comparisons. A change in winding position, degradation in the insulation, etc. will result in change in capacitance or inductance thereby affecting the measured curves.

  6. Electric power transmission - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electric_power_transmission

    Voltage was stepped down to 100 volts using the Stanley transformer to power incandescent lamps at 23 businesses over 4,000 feet (1,200 m). [12] This practical demonstration of a transformer and alternating current lighting system led Westinghouse to begin installing AC systems later that year. [11] In 1888 the first designs for an AC motor ...

  7. Short-time Fourier transform - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Short-time_Fourier_transform

    Simply, in the continuous-time case, the function to be transformed is multiplied by a window function which is nonzero for only a short period of time. The Fourier transform (a one-dimensional function) of the resulting signal is taken, then the window is slid along the time axis until the end resulting in a two-dimensional representation of the signal.

  8. Variable-frequency transformer - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Variable-frequency_transformer

    A variable-frequency transformer is a doubly fed electric machine resembling a vertical shaft hydroelectric generator with a three-phase wound rotor, connected by slip rings to one external power circuit. The stator is connected to the other. With no applied torque, the shaft rotates due to the difference in frequency between the networks ...

  9. Spectrum analyzer - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Spectrum_analyzer

    The frequency halfway between the stop and start frequencies on a spectrum analyzer display is known as the center frequency. This is the frequency that is in the middle of the display's frequency axis. Span specifies the range between the start and stop frequencies. These two parameters allow for adjustment of the display within the frequency ...
