  2. Load-loss factor - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Load-loss_factor

    Multiple empirical formulae exist that relate the loss factor to the load factor (Dickert et al. in 2009 listed nine [5]). Similarly, the ratio between the average and the peak current is called form coefficient k [ 6 ] or peak responsibility factor k , [ 7 ] its typical value is between 0.2 to 0.8 for distribution networks and 0.8 to 0.95 for ...

  3. Steinmetz's equation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Steinmetz's_equation

    Steinmetz's equation, sometimes called the power equation, [1] is an empirical equation used to calculate the total power loss (core losses) per unit volume in magnetic materials when subjected to external sinusoidally varying magnetic flux.

  4. Copper loss - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Copper_loss

    where I is the current flowing in the conductor and R is the resistance of the conductor. With I in amperes and R in ohms, the calculated power loss is given in watts. Joule heating has a coefficient of performance of 1.0, meaning that every 1 watt of electrical power is converted to 1 Joule of heat. Therefore, the energy lost due to copper ...

  5. Link budget - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Link_budget

    A link budget is an accounting of all of the power gains and losses that a communication signal experiences in a telecommunication system; from a transmitter, through a communication medium such as radio waves, cable, waveguide, or optical fiber, to the receiver.

  6. Loss of load - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Loss_of_load

    Loss of load in an electrical grid is a term used to describe the situation when the available generation capacity is less than the system load. [1] Multiple probabilistic reliability indices for the generation systems are using loss of load in their definitions, with the more popular [2] being Loss of Load Probability (LOLP) that characterizes a probability of a loss of load occurring within ...

  7. Dielectric loss - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dielectric_loss

    P o is the initial power; There are often other contributions to power loss for electromagnetic waves that are not included in this expression, such as due to the wall currents of the conductors of a transmission line or waveguide. Also, a similar analysis could be applied to the magnetic permeability where

  8. Losses in electrical systems - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Losses_in_electrical_systems

    In an electrical or electronic circuit or power system part of the energy in play is dissipated by unwanted effects, including energy lost by unwanted heating of resistive components (electricity is also used for the intention of heating, which is not a loss), the effect of parasitic elements (resistance, capacitance, and inductance), skin effect, losses in the windings and cores of ...

  9. Voltage drop - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Voltage_drop

    The voltage drop across the load is proportional to the power available to be converted in that load to some other useful form of energy. For example, an electric space heater may have a resistance of ten ohms, and the wires that supply it may have a resistance of 0.2 ohms, about 2% of the total circuit resistance. This means that approximately ...
