  2. Tip-speed ratio - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tip-speed_ratio

    This means that as the wind speed changes, the rotor speed must change as well such that C p = C p max. A wind turbine with a variable rotor speed is called a variable-speed wind turbine. Whilst this does mean that the wind turbine operates at or close to C p max for a range of wind speeds, the frequency of the AC voltage generator will not be ...

  3. Motor constants - Wikipedia

    This is exactly the value estimated by the formula stated earlier. EXAMPLE: Torque applied at different diameters , K v (rpm/V) {\displaystyle K_{\text{v (rpm/V)}}} = 3600 rpm/V ≈ 377 rad/s/V , K T {\displaystyle K_{\text{T}}} ≈ 0.00265 N.m/A (each calculatable if one is known) , V = 2 v, I a {\displaystyle I_{\text{a}}} = 2 A, P = 4 W ...

  4. Maxwell–Boltzmann distribution - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Maxwell–Boltzmann...

    The mean speed , most probable speed v p, and root-mean-square speed can be obtained from properties of the Maxwell distribution. This works well for nearly ideal, monatomic gases like helium, but also for molecular gases like diatomic oxygen.

  5. Bernoulli's principle - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bernoulli's_principle

    Bernoulli's principle is a key concept in fluid dynamics that relates pressure, density, speed and height. Bernoulli's principle states that an increase in the speed of a parcel of fluid occurs simultaneously with a decrease in either the pressure or the height above a datum. [1]:

  6. Mean speed theorem - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mean_speed_theorem

    The mean speed theorem, also known as the Merton rule of uniform acceleration, [1] was discovered in the 14th century by the Oxford Calculators of Merton College, and was proved by Nicole Oresme. It states that a uniformly accelerated body (starting from rest, i.e. zero initial velocity) travels the same distance as a body with uniform speed ...

  7. Speed - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Speed

    Speed is the magnitude of velocity (a vector), which indicates additionally the direction of motion. Speed has the dimensions of distance divided by time. The SI unit of speed is the metre per second (m/s), but the most common unit of speed in everyday usage is the kilometre per hour (km/h) or, in the US and the UK, miles per hour (mph).

  8. Mean motion - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mean_motion

    In orbital mechanics, mean motion (represented by n) is the angular speed required for a body to complete one orbit, assuming constant speed in a circular orbit which completes in the same time as the variable speed, elliptical orbit of the actual body. [1]

  9. Speeds and feeds - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Speeds_and_feeds

    Cutting speed may be defined as the rate at the workpiece surface, irrespective of the machining operation used. A cutting speed for mild steel of 100 ft/min is the same whether it is the speed of the cutter passing over the workpiece, such as in a turning operation, or the speed of the cutter moving past a workpiece, such as in a milling operation.
