Regulation Definition and 58 Threads

Hello! I am a student working on a portable laser project. The laser is going to be powered by two lithium-ion batteries at 3.4A capacity and 3.7 Nominal voltage (4.2 charging voltage cut-off and 2.5 discharging voltage cut-off). I'm using voltage regulators to step up or step down voltages for...

I've no political agenda. This is strictly a math question about optimization. Those addressing it should do so strictly from a mathematical perspective. Thank you! If the world simply had one global currency, like Bitcoin, and everyone had an account, then the sum total of all accounts...

So I've done part a) Primary current = 200000/415=481.9 Cos θ = -0.8 Sin θ = 0.6 Reg=(481.9 ( 0.014*-0.8 + 0.057*0.6))/415 = 0.0267 Reg% = 2.67% Part b I simply used the same equation but for secondary: @ unity p.f., cos θ =1, sin θ = 0 secondary current = 200000/11000 = 18.18...

I don't know much about biology but the following two questions have always puzzled me. 1: If each human body cell contains the same genes (from 20,000 to 25,000) then how different cells in different parts of body do different things. A liver cell, for example, does not have the same...

Hello I hope someone can help me, as i am kinda stuck for the moment. As you can see, the assignment states that I need to find the poles from the closed loop transfer function. I plan on doing so, by using block diagram reduction method. This is as fare as I've come, and can't come...

If I had an object in an orbit around the Earth that I kept continually shaded from the sun, how cold would it get? Assuming the shade device was not physically connected to and was sufficiently far away from the object to not radiate any heat to it. And if I actively adjusted how much shade...

Two (not short) Science magazine articles on economic conflicts involving pharmaceutical companies (surprise, surprise!). Payments to FDA advisors after drug approvals. Pharmacology companies hire FDA staffers after successful drug reviews.

Hi, I was wondering if anybody would be willing to point me in the right direction for solving the following question. The questions is as follows: A 10000V RMS (primary) to 415V RMS (secondary) transformer rated 400kVA has the following resistance and reactance: Rs = 3 ohms Xs = 10 ohms A...

Homework Statement [/B]Homework Equations I have used the Hughes electrical book for the equations to solve the above. I have very little notes from college to help. I have found these equations fit and am confident on it but not 100% can anyone who knows transformers please advise if they...

Hi! I am confused with the speed regulation for Isochronous control. In Droop control, we can surely solve for a value of speed regulation because droop allows the generator to have a varying frequency. However, in Isochronous control, the frequency and speed from no-load to full-load is the...

This particular question is for an assignment. However, I believe that I have the final (correct) answer, but want to check the understanding. I am required to calculate the resistance of the secondary winding of a transformer. The transformer is a 415:11000 V step-up, rated at 200kVA but with...

Hi, I want to calculate voltage regulation of a transfromer. I have learned that voltage regulation is (Vnl-Vfl)/Vfl. While solving some problems for practice I came across multiple questions. In some of them where the load is given I understand how to solve them. I just find the No load...

I am studying a particular gene whose expression decreases in certain types of cancer. I'm interested in finding out the mechanisms for this downregulation, specifically, which transcription factors and signalling pathways are involved. I have a hypothesis for the pathway involved, but in case...

Hi I was wondering if someone could help me understand and explain to me how one can control the frequency of the grid from help of the active power (frequency -> power angle -> active power) and how reactive power can be used to control the voltage level. My thoughts: Voltage Control: I don't...

I have been looking into different methods of regulating protein activity for a project. I think it is pretty interesting and I want to learn more about this. I want to learn about the different methods out there, if you know of any cool or helpful regulation techniques I would certainly...

Hi, So I have been told on here that when you eliminate the leakage flux between coils it improves Voltage regulation, I have also read online that voltage regulation is related to inductance, but could anyone elaborate on these? 'why are these so?' [I can sort of guess something like the...

I am having confusion about the no load and full load speeds of a dc motor. What exactly does 'loading' stand for? How do we change the loading of a dc motor ?What is the relationship between loading and the speed of the motor? Which situations does no load and full load refer to?

Homework Statement The attachment depicts an active load (to the right is the equivalent circuit). It is called thus because this load (measured from TP27) changes its resistance according to the controlling signal connected to TP25. The load is switched “on” (minimum resistance) and “off”...

Hi, I need to calculate the voltage regulation of the 3 ph Dzn transformer. I have knowledge of the current going into the primary winding of the transformer (Delta winding) and hence need to calculate the current in the secondary (load current) so that I can use this in the voltage...

Good evening everyone. I have two questions to ask you guys. 1. Why voltage regulation of a synchronous motor is negative with a purely capacitive load? I mean why? 2. Why Reactive loss is higher than resistive loss in a power distribution line? thank you and have a nice day...

I have a nokia N8 cell phone and it is very precise about what it will allow to charge it. Mostly it will only accept wall chargers, not car power in any way. There is no way it knows the car charger isn't in the wall so all I can guess is the power is "dirty" and therefore it denies it. My...

How can a transformer have negative voltage regulation? A few texts state that a leading power factor can give rise to negative power factor, but I have not been able to figure out how this is possible. One vague explanation in my mind is that capacitance across the secondary terminal will...

Are different electrical frequencies allocated to specific applications because of their properties or to regulate the spectrum so that each assigned frequency range is unique to one entity? I guess a related question is: Are we going higher in frequency ranges for things like automobile...

Hi all, I'm after a water system involving some sort of pressure valve (pressure regulator, relief valve etc - whichever gets the job done) where the inlet pressure is always OVER set-pressure, and the valve oscillates (opens and closes rapidly) in response. It is this oscillation that is...

Ok, so I have a variable DC voltage source that changes as due to outside factors. The voltage ranges between 9 and 18 volts with a current between 1 and 3 amps. I want the voltage source to charge a 12 volt battery continuously until it is full. Whent he battery is full, the circuit should shut...

This is more of a lab then a homework Ok, so i had a full wave bridge rectifier w/capacitor hooked up to a power regulator. and i was attempting to perform line regulation- and for a Vmin i should have got around 10.5V but i got 2.4V. Why is that? I think the rectifier stopped rectifying but...

I'm an entry-level engineer, and I have a design question for the forum: I'm designing a multiphase buck DC/DC converter which will convert roughly 65VDC to 52VDC at up to 150A. I'm using 4 phases, so inductors, etc will be designed to about 40A/phase, MOSFETS will be paralleled for less...

Am I the only person who gets really nitty-gritty about component selection? Well probably not, but I am having a bit of trouble picking out my power management ICs. I am building a dual rail power supply. I guess you could call it that. It can do +/-12V and +/- 5V. It may be useful somewhere...
