Utility power plant generators are usually designed for a power factor (PF) of .8 to .9. If demand-side PF is lower than the designed PF, the generator current will rise above the equipment's rated ...

Once the control method of choice only in high-performance industrial ac-servo drives, FOC (field-oriented control) is finding its way into lower end industrial and many appliance applications with ...

It hasn’t been that long since humans figured out how to create power grids that integrated multiple generators and consumers. Ever since AC won the battle of the currents, grid operators have had to ...

Previously-known schemes for RC rectangular pulse generators with a regulated duty cycle had an ineradicable disadvantage: changing the pulse fill factor (D) inevitably changed the frequency of ...
