  2. HVDC converter - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/HVDC_converter

    An HVDC converter converts electric power from high voltage alternating current (AC) to high-voltage direct current (HVDC), or vice versa. HVDC is used as an alternative to AC for transmitting electrical energy over long distances or between AC power systems of different frequencies. [1]

  3. Conversion (word formation) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Conversion_(word_formation)

    Conversions from adjectives to nouns and vice versa are both very common and unnotable in English; much more remarked upon is the creation of a verb by converting a noun or other word (for example, the adjective clean becomes the verb to clean).

  4. Electric power conversion - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electric_power_conversion

    In electrical engineering, power conversion is the process of converting electric energy from one form to another. A power converter is an electrical device for converting electrical energy between alternating current (AC) and direct current (DC). It can also change the voltage or frequency of the current.

  5. gc (engineering) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gc_(engineering)

    In engineering and physics, g c is a unit conversion factor used to convert mass to force or vice versa. [1] It is defined as = In unit systems where force is a derived unit, like in SI units, g c is equal to 1.

  6. Thermoelectric effect - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thermoelectric_effect

    The thermoelectric effect is the direct conversion of temperature differences to electric voltage and vice versa via a thermocouple. [1] A thermoelectric device creates a voltage when there is a different temperature on each side. Conversely, when a voltage is applied to it, heat is transferred from one side to the other, creating a temperature ...

  7. Source transformation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Source_transformation

    Source transformation is the process of simplifying a circuit solution, especially with mixed sources, by transforming voltage sources into current sources, and vice versa, using Thévenin's theorem and Norton's theorem respectively. [1]

  8. Conversion reactor - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Conversion_reactor

    In futurology and science fiction stories, a conversion reactor is any artificial device or process which can result in higher or complete conversion of matter into energy, or vice versa in some proportion of E = mc 2.

  9. Contraposition - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Contraposition

    Conversion (the converse), ... One statement is the contrapositive of the other only when its antecedent is the negated consequent of the other, and vice versa. Thus ...
