  2. Permanent magnet synchronous generator - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Permanent_magnet...

    A permanent magnet synchronous generator is a generator where the excitation field is provided by a permanent magnet instead of a coil. The term synchronous refers here to the fact that the rotor and magnetic field rotate with the same speed, because the magnetic field is generated through a shaft-mounted permanent magnet mechanism, and current is induced into the stationary armature.

  3. Capability curve - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Capability_curve

    Due to high cost of a generator, a set of sensors and limiters will trigger the alarm when the generator approaches the capability-set boundary and, if no action is taken by the operator, will disconnect the generator from the grid. [3] D-curve expands with cooling. The D-curve for a particular generator can be expanded by improved cooling.

  4. Mechanical systems drawing - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mechanical_systems_drawing

    The schematic is a line diagram, not necessarily to scale, that describes interconnection of components in a system. The main features of a schematic drawing show: A two dimensional layout with divisions that show distribution of the system between building levels, or an isometric-style layout that shows distribution of systems across ...

  6. Rack and pinion - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rack_and_pinion

    A rack and pinion has roughly the same purpose as a worm gear with a rack replacing the gear, in that both convert torque to linear force. However the rack and pinion generally provides higher linear speed — since a full turn of the pinion displaces the rack by an amount equal to the pinion's pitch circle whereas a full rotation of the worm screw only displaces the rack by one tooth width.

  7. Single-phase generator - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Single-phase_generator

    Single-phase generator (also known as single-phase alternator) is an alternating current electrical generator that produces a single, continuously alternating voltage. Single-phase generators can be used to generate power in single-phase electric power systems.

  8. Van de Graaff generator - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Van_de_Graaff_generator

    Van de Graaff generator diagram. A simple Van de Graaff generator consists of a belt of rubber (or a similar flexible dielectric material) moving over two rollers of differing material, one of which is surrounded by a hollow metal sphere. A comb-shaped metal electrode with sharp points (2 and 7 in the diagram), is positioned near each roller ...

  9. Voronoi diagram - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Voronoi_diagram

    A power diagram is a type of Voronoi diagram defined from a set of circles using the power distance; it can also be thought of as a weighted Voronoi diagram in which a weight defined from the radius of each circle is added to the squared Euclidean distance from the circle's center.
