  2. Power factor - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Power_factor

    Power factors below 1.0 require a utility to generate more than the minimum volt-amperes necessary to supply the real power (watts). This increases generation and transmission costs. For example, if the load power factor were as low as 0.7, the apparent power would be 1.4 times the real power used by the load.

  3. AC motor - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/AC_motor

    An AC motor is an electric motor driven by an alternating current (AC). The AC motor commonly consists of two basic parts, an outside stator having coils supplied with alternating current to produce a rotating magnetic field, and an inside rotor attached to the output shaft producing a second rotating magnetic field. The rotor magnetic field ...

  4. Form factor (design) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Form_factor_(design)

    Subnotebook, ultra-mobile PC, netbook, and tablet computer, various form factors for devices that are smaller and often cheaper than a typical notebook. Mobile phone, including a wide range of sizes and layouts. Broad categories of form factors include bars, flip phones, and sliders, with many subtypes and variations. [5]

  5. Motherboard form factor - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Motherboard_form_factor

    Although it is a slower process, form factors do evolve regularly in response to changing demands. IBM's long-standing standard, AT (Advanced Technology), was superseded in 1995 by the current industry standard ATX (Advanced Technology Extended), [1] which still governs the size and design of the motherboard in most modern PCs. The latest ...

  6. Motor constants - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Motor_constants

    The motor constant is winding independent (as long as the same conductive material is used for wires); e.g., winding a motor with 6 turns with 2 parallel wires instead of 12 turns single wire will double the velocity constant, , but remains unchanged.

  7. Power supply unit (computer) - Wikipedia

    At least two of Dell's business PCs introduced in 2013, the OptiPlex 9020 and Precision T1700, ... (Power Supply Design Guide for Desktop Platform Form Factors, v1.1)

  8. Vector control (motor) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vector_control_(motor)

    In vector control, an AC induction or synchronous motor is controlled under all operating conditions like a separately excited DC motor. [21] That is, the AC motor behaves like a DC motor in which the field flux linkage and armature flux linkage created by the respective field and armature (or torque component) currents are orthogonally aligned such that, when torque is controlled, the field ...

  9. Synchronous motor - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Synchronous_motor

    Small synchronous motor with integral stepdown gear from a microwave oven. A synchronous electric motor is an AC electric motor in which, at steady state, [1] the rotation of the shaft is synchronized with the frequency of the supply current; the rotation period is exactly equal to an integer number of AC cycles.
