  2. Frank J. Tipler - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Frank_J._Tipler

    Tipler identifies the Omega Point with God, since, in his view, the Omega Point has all the properties of God claimed by most traditional religions. [ 8 ] [ 9 ] Tipler's argument of the Omega Point being required by the laws of physics is a more recent development that arose after the publication of his 1994 book The Physics of Immortality .

  3. Electrostatic generator - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electrostatic_generator

    A Van de Graaff generator, for classroom demonstrations 12" Quadruple Sector-less Wimshurst Machine (Bonetti Machine). An electrostatic generator, or electrostatic machine, is an electrical generator that produces static electricity, or electricity at high voltage and low continuous current.

  4. Amplidyne - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Amplidyne

    The motor provides the power, turning the generator at a constant speed, and the signal to be amplified is applied to the generator's field winding. The higher the current applied to the winding, the stronger the magnetic field and thus the higher the output voltage of the generator. So the output voltage of the generator is an amplified copy ...

  5. 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.

  6. Motor–generator - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Motor–generator

    The motor–generator set may contain a large flywheel to improve its ride-through; however, consideration must be taken in this application as the motor–generator will lose speed and may draw a large current when power returns or the circuit-breaker is re-closed. If the speed loss is excessive (the power outage is too long), the re-closure ...

  7. Digital pattern generator - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Digital_pattern_generator

    The number of digital channels defines the maximum width of any pattern generated - typically, 8-bit, 16-bit, or 32-bit pattern generator. A 16-bit pattern generator is able to generate arbitrary digital samples on any number of bits from 1 to 16. The maximum rate defines the minimum time interval between 2 successive patterns.

  8. Induction generator - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Induction_generator

    As an example, consider the use of a 10 hp, 1760 r/min, 440 V, three-phase induction motor (a.k.a. induction electrical machine in an asynchronous generator regime) as asynchronous generator. The full-load current of the motor is 10 A and the full-load power factor is 0.8.

  9. 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.
