This circuit is called a leading-edge dimmer or forward phase dimming. Waveform of the output voltage of a thyristor dimmer set for 60 volts RMS output, with 120 V input. The red trace shows the output device switching on about 5.5 ms after the input (blue) voltage crosses zero.
A rising edge (or positive edge) is the low-to-high transition. [1] A falling edge (or negative edge) is the high-to-low transition. [1] In the case of a pulse, which consists of two edges: The leading edge (or front edge) is the first edge of the pulse. The trailing edge (or back edge) is the second edge of the pulse.
Leading edge modulation (top plot) uses a reverse sawtooth wave to generate the PWM. The PWM's leading edge is held at the leading edge of the window and the trailing edge is modulated. Trailing edge modulation (middle plot) uses a normal sawtooth wave to generate the PWM. The PWM's trailing edge is fixed and the leading edge is modulated.
The angle between the upper and lower surfaces at the trailing edge is called the trailing edge angle. If the trailing edge angle is zero it is described as a cusped trailing edge. [5] In two-dimensional flow around a uniform wing of infinite span, the slope of the lift curve is determined primarily by the trailing edge angle. The slope is ...
The contacts of a 3-way bulb Circuit diagram of a 3-way bulb. A 3-way incandescent bulb has two filaments designed to produce different amounts of light. The two filaments can be activated separately or together, giving three different amounts of light. One common 3-way incandescent bulb is the 50/100/150 W.
If the trailing edge has a non-zero angle, the flow velocity there must be zero. At a cusped trailing edge, however, the velocity can be non-zero although it must still be identical above and below the airfoil. Another formulation is that the pressure must be continuous at the trailing edge. The Kutta condition does not apply to unsteady flow.
A new study has found that VO2 max is a better measure of cardiovascular health than body mass index (BMI). Here's what it is, plus how it's measured.
Aerofoil nomenclature showing chord line Chord line of a turbine aerofoil section. Chords on a swept-wing. In aeronautics, the chord is an imaginary straight line segment joining the leading edge and trailing edge of an aerofoil cross section parallel to the direction of the airflow.
