Power factor correction uses parallel connected capacitors to oppose the effects of inductive elements and reduce the phase shift between the voltage and current. Power factor correction is a ...

Inductive pulsed power supply systems are a class of devices that utilise magnetic energy storage via inductors to generate high-power pulses. By storing energy in the magnetic field of inductive ...

Excessive use of electricity and poor efficiencies are no longer acceptable. Eliminating poor power factor will result in increasing electrical efficiencies and will reduce the overall use of ...

This paper provides details of MOSFET switching action in applications with clamped inductive load, when used as a secondary synchronous rectifier, and driving pulse/gate drive transformers. Potential ...

What is an inductive-boost dc-dc converter? Closing the switch causes current to build up through the inductor, as shown in the simplified inductive-boost dc-dc converter circuit (Fig. 1). Opening the ...

Inductance is the link between electric circuits and magnetic fields. Voltage and current sine waves are in-phase when they peak and cross the zero axis at the same time. However, this rarely happens ...

Many loads are mainly resistive; thus, they’re rated in watts (i.e., true power). Simply stated, these loads have a very small reactive component, which means an apparent power rating (VA) would not ...

• Electric brakes and clutches operated directly from PLCs frequently lack proper suppression circuitry. • Without proper suppression, the operating life of an electric brake or clutch may be ...
