  2. Mathematics of three-phase electric power - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mathematics_of_three-phase...

    An important property of three-phase power is that the instantaneous power available to a resistive load, = =, is constant at all times.Indeed, let = = To simplify the mathematics, we define a nondimensionalized power for intermediate calculations, =

  3. Three-phase electric power - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Three-phase_electric_power

    Three-phase transformer with four-wire output for 208Y/120 volt service: one wire for neutral, others for A, B and C phases. Three-phase electric power (abbreviated 3ϕ [1]) is a common type of alternating current (AC) used in electricity generation, transmission, and distribution. [2]

  4. Three-phase traffic theory - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Three-phase_traffic_theory

    Three-phase traffic theory is a theory of traffic flow developed by Boris Kerner between 1996 and 2002. [1] [2] [3] It focuses mainly on the explanation of the physics of traffic breakdown and resulting congested traffic on highways.

  5. Multiphase flow - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Multiphase_flow

    Sketch of multiphase flow in an oil pipe, where the continuous phase is the liquid (blue) carrying smaller particles. Gas (white) and oil particles (black) are in a disperse phase. In fluid mechanics, multiphase flow is the simultaneous flow of materials with two or more thermodynamic phases. [1]

  6. Extended cycle combined hormonal contraceptive - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Extended_cycle_combined...

    With bi- and tri-phasic pills, skipping the placebo week results in a sudden change in hormone levels, which may cause irregular spotting or flow. (Monophasic pills offer the same dose of estrogen and progestogen whereas multiphasic pills have varying doses from day to day; see formulations for details.) [ citation needed ]

  7. Power inverter - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Power_inverter

    Rectifier circuits are often classified by the number of current pulses that flow to the DC side of the rectifier per cycle of AC input voltage. A single-phase half-wave rectifier is a one-pulse circuit and a single-phase full-wave rectifier is a two-pulse circuit. A three-phase half-wave rectifier is a three-pulse circuit and a three-phase ...

  8. Induction generator - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Induction_generator

    An induction generator or asynchronous generator is a type of alternating current (AC) electrical generator that uses the principles of induction motors to produce electric power.

  9. Alternation of generations - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Alternation_of_generations

    The term "plants" is taken here to mean the Archaeplastida, i.e. the glaucophytes, red and green algae and land plants. Alternation of generations occurs in almost all multicellular red and green algae, both freshwater forms (such as Cladophora) and seaweeds (such as Ulva). In most, the generations are homomorphic (isomorphic) and free-living.
