A new, MIL-qualified power converter has been designed to provide electrical isolation between input power and an electrically noisy load. The DTI PCS-5000 maintains a unity power factor when driving ...

Here's when to use linear-static FEA and when to use a nonlinear program. Most engineering problems contain nonlinear effects. Take a paper clip, for example. Push on one end hard enough and the clip ...

Power quality measurements and data tracking are essential in determining the reliability and efficiency of your power system. Power quality is the measure of the consistency of the electrical supply ...

At one time, almost all electrical loads were linear — those that weren't made up such a small portion of the total that they had little effect on electrical system operation. That all changed, ...
