  2. Maximum power transfer theorem - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Maximum_power_transfer_theorem

    Simplified model for powering a load with resistance R L by a source with voltage V S and resistance R S.. The theorem was originally misunderstood (notably by Joule [4]) to imply that a system consisting of an electric motor driven by a battery could not be more than 50% efficient, since the power dissipated as heat in the battery would always be equal to the power delivered to the motor when ...

  3. Maximum power - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Maximum_power

    Maximum power can refer to: Maximum power transfer theorem in electronics; Maximum power principle in systems theory; Maximum power point tracking in energy extraction, most commonly photovoltaic solar systems

  4. Power-voltage curve - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Power-voltage_curve

    Power-voltage curve (also P-V curve) describes the relationship between the active power delivered to the electrical load and the voltage at the load terminals in an electric power system under a constant power factor. [1] When plotted with power as a horizontal axis, the curve resembles a human nose, thus it is sometimes called a nose curve. [2]

  5. File:Maximum Power Transfer Graph.svg - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:Maximum_Power...

    A graph to show the power dissipated in a resistive load (red line) supplied by a source with resistive effects. Also shown is the efficiency, η, (blue line) which is the proportion of the total power dissipated that is dissipated in the load resistance.

  6. Maximum power principle - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Maximum_power_principle

    Like the maximum power theorem, Odum's statement of the maximum power principle relies on the notion of 'matching', such that high-quality energy maximizes power by matching and amplifying energy (1994, pp. 262, 541): "in surviving designs a matching of high-quality energy with larger amounts of low-quality energy is likely to occur" (1994, p ...

  7. Impedance matching - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Impedance_matching

    The maximum power theorem applies to its "upstream" connection to the solar panel, so it emulates a load resistance equal to the solar panel source resistance. However, the maximum power theorem does not apply to its "downstream" connection. That connection is an impedance bridging connection; it emulates a high-voltage, low-resistance source ...

  8. PDF - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/PDF

    Portable Document Format (PDF), standardized as ISO 32000, is a file format developed by Adobe in 1992 to present documents, including text formatting and images, in a manner independent of application software, hardware, and operating systems.

  9. Power-flow study - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Power-flow_study

    In power engineering, the power-flow study, or load-flow study, is a numerical analysis of the flow of electric power in an interconnected system. A power-flow study usually uses simplified notations such as a one-line diagram and per-unit system, and focuses on various aspects of AC power parameters, such as Voltage, voltage angles, real power and reactive power.
