  2. Electrostatic generator - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electrostatic_generator

    Electrostatic machines are typically used in science classrooms to safely demonstrate electrical forces and high voltage phenomena. The elevated potential differences achieved have been also used for a variety of practical applications, such as operating X-ray tubes, particle accelerators, spectroscopy, medical applications, sterilization of food, and nuclear physics experiments.

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_free_electronics...

    List of free analog and digital electronic circuit simulators, available for Windows, macOS, Linux, and comparing against UC Berkeley SPICE.The following table is split into two groups based on whether it has a graphical visual interface or not.

  4. Armstrong effect - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Armstrong_effect

    Armstrong Hydroelectric Machine. The Armstrong effect is the physical process by which static electricity is produced by the friction of a fluid. It was first discovered in 1840 when an electrical spark resulted from water droplets being swept out by escaping steam from a boiler.

  5. Power system simulator for engineering - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Power_system_simulator_for...

    Power System Simulator for Engineering (PSS®E—often written as PSS/E) is a software tool used by power system engineers to simulate electrical power transmission networks [1] in steady-state conditions [2] as well as over timescales of a few seconds to tens of seconds.

  6. Electrostatic levitation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electrostatic_levitation

    Due to Earnshaw's theorem, no static arrangement of classical electrostatic fields can be used to stably levitate a point charge. There is an equilibrium point where the two fields cancel, but it is an unstable equilibrium. By using feedback techniques it is possible to adjust the charges to achieve a quasi static levitation.

  7. Electrostatic discharge - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electrostatic_discharge

    Electrostatic discharge (ESD) is a sudden and momentary flow of electric current between two differently-charged objects when brought close together or when the dielectric between them breaks down, often creating a visible spark associated with the static electricity between the objects.

    Sadaghdar was born in Iran on 13 January 1977 and resides in Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada. [3] [4] He was conferred a Bachelor of Applied Science from the University of Tehran in 1999 and, after moving to Vancouver, a Master of Applied Science from Simon Fraser University in 2006.

  9. Two-balloon experiment - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Two-balloon_experiment

    The key to understanding the behavior of the balloons is understanding how the pressure inside a balloon varies with the balloon's diameter. The simplest way to do this is to imagine that the balloon is made up of a large number of small rubber patches, and to analyze how the size of a patch is affected by the force acting on it.
