Difference between power transformers and distribution transformers

Those transformers installed at the sending or receiving end of long high-voltage transmission lines are the power transformers. The distribution transformer (generally pole mounted) are those installed in the localities of the city to provide utilization voltage

Power Formulas for AC and DC Circuit

Following are the Power Formulas in AC & DC Circuit Sr. Description Formula 1 Power in DC Circuits P = V X I P = I2 X R P = V2 / R 2 Power in AC

Filters

Need of filter circuit Filters are the electronic circuits used along with rectifiers to get a pure dc voltage. From all the rectifiers circuits get pulsating dc o/p. Where pulsating means some ac part or some ripples

Difference between Resultant and Equilibrants

Following are four main difference in Resultant and Equilibrants force No. Resultant Equilibrant 1. Definition: A resultant of number of forces acting on a body is a single. Force which can produce the same effect on the

What is Rectification

Rectification is the process of converting the alternating voltage or current into the corresponding direct (dc) quantity. (Direct voltage or current) The input to a rectifier is ac whereas its output is unidirectional or dc. The electronic

Short note on EQUILIBRIUM – Its condition and principles

EQUILIBRIUM Definition A balanced state of a body under the action of given forces, is known as equilibrium. In this state the net effect of all the forces is nil. A body in equilibrium has no resultant

Fundamental concepts and principle of Applied Mechanics
