    Need help for Generator Synchronization

    I want to synchronize to generator. And I want to simulate using MATLAB. But I cannot understand how to do that. Because to do that I need equation's of voltage, phase and frequency. But I could not find. Please help me with that. And also I want to simulate those equation using MATLAB. is there...

    Confusion about synchronization

    Hello, Suppose, in moving train Observer O is at middle point M, and two clocks is situated at A(rear) and B(front). O has a clock. I have confusion about time of A and B after synchronization. I have two scenario, please, tell me which one is right. (1) If we assume that one way...

    3 GPS Satellites & Receiver Clock Synchronization

    Please help me in removing my mistake, since i see 3 satellite required to locate an place on Earth and synchronization of receiver clock with gps satellite. [ I have assumed at any moment a place on Earth will see certain satellite at a certain distance from it in the sky. That is a...

    Synchronization of hydraulic pistons

    Hi, I am planning to build a garage to park my two cars. Since I don't have much space for two vehicles, I am planning to build an underground car parking system with two levels. For this, I need 4 synchronized cylinders for 4 corners. Load will be approx. 6000 lbs. Can anyone of you...

    Does gps receiver need synchronization with atomic clock

    with synchronization what the gps receiver does is compute time difference between his current time (synchronized with atomic clock onborad each satellite) and the time tag of a satellite when the signal was sent. This difference gives the travel time of an signal from the satellite and hence...

    Is Einstein synchronization trivially true?

    Einstein synchronization, as it is conventionally defined, depends on subtle issues like the one-way speed of light. But the slow transport of clocks produces the same simultaneity convention. And I would think that the slow transport convention is a tautology. After all, if time only changes...

    Transitivity condition for Einstein synchronization and the one-way light speed

    1) Consider that one way light speed is anisotropic. 2) Use the Einstein method to synchronize all the watches by the watch located at (x,y,z)=(0,0,0). Now, all the watches are synchronized by the watch at (0,0,0) but they are not necessarily synchronized with each-other (Consider watches...

    Synchronization of Earth clocks

    If we have two clocks, one stationary at surface of Earth, and the other one very slowly moved at the surface of Earth, in the direction of Earth rotation, the clock that made the trip should be running ahead of the same stationary clock once it makes a complete circle and stops where it started...

    Medical Effects of Caffeine on Brainwave Synchronization?

    I know that Caffeine gives a boost in the amount of Beta-Waves in the brain, but what does it do to the Synchronicity of brainwaves between the 2 Hemispheres? It's well known that a brain with higher synchronicity is more efficient than a brain with uneven brainwave synchronicity... Since...

    Relativity train and clock synchronization

    I'm trying to understand the relativity train thought experiment. One of the key concepts seems to be that the clocks at the front and back of the train are "synchronized" such that the clock at the front of the train is running slightly behind the clock at the back of the train (as seen by an...

    How to Effectively Synchronize Multiple Generators in a Hospital Setting?

    i am BSEE student, my project study is to synchronize the generator of an hospital, it have a one 313KVA standby-power diesel gen.,and three 100kva transformer.The generator system is operated manually and no ATS or UPS. one more new building is being build so the transformer will be upgrade...

    How Do Metronomes Achieve Synchronization?

    Synchronization Phenomena: (Many of you probably have seen this, but it's still quite interesting) So I'm wondering how "exactly" this thing work? I have sort of a vague understanding... but not completely sure. Thanks for commenting & explanations!

    External clock synchronization and sbsolute motion

    "External" clock synchronization and sbsolute motion The “external” clock synchronization goes as follows: Consider that the clocks C(x) located at the points M(x) of the OX axis of I inertial reference frame read all zero (t=0) as a result of a standard (Einstein) clock synchronization...

    Bondi k and everyday clock synchronization

    Dr.Greg has presented on the Forum the Lorentz-Einstein transformations (LET) expressed as a function of k=[(1+v/c)/(1-v/c)]1/2. The important fact is that the LET are clock synchronization independent. Because special relativity is a very flexible chapter of physics, I have tried to express...

    Non-standard clock synchronization

    Selleri proposes the following transformation equations x=g(x'-vt') t=t'/g g=gamma. Einstein's clock synchronization requires t(E)=t(e)+x/c t(E) reading of a clock located at a distance x from the origin, t(e) reading of a clock located at the origin when the synchronizing light signal is...

    Is Synchronizing Clocks at Different Positions Neglecting Light Travel Delays?

    The idea is that you have a clock at the origin of some frame O. In order to synchronize this clock with 2 other clocks placed at x = -X and x = X (one dimensional) these two clocks are fixed to show the time t = x/c and they start ticking when they receive a light flash from when the clock at...

    Is Clock Synchronization Truly Possible According to Einstein's Theory?

    Consider the clocks C(0)(x=0,y=0) ticking and clock C(x,y=0) stopped and fixed to read t=x/c. Source S(0,0) emits a light signal towards clock C. Arriving at its location the light signal starts clock C and we say that C(0) and C(x,0) are synchronized a la Einstein. Is there something wrong in...

    Is clock synchronization compulsory

    Working with clocks we have to perform an initialization (to ensure that when the origins of the involved inertial reference frames are located at the same point in space theirs clocks read t=t'=0) and a synchronization of the clocks of the same inertial reference frame ensuring that they...

    Einstein's Clock Synchronization Convention

    Just a friendly reminder, the first postulate of the special theory of relativity, namely that the speed of light c is the same in all inertial frames, only holds true in view of Einstein's clock synchronization convention. There is no experimental basis whatsoever for preferring this convention...

    Clock Synchronization: How to Measure Photon Velocity

    Hi, I have been thinking that in order to actually prove Einstein's second postulate of SR about the speed of light (and SR in general) you need to make a one-way measurement of the velocity of individual photons. To do this the clocks at the two ends of the path have to be synchronized. My...
