In battery electric vehicles the efficiency of the powertrain has a big impact on driving range and performance. As the overall efficiency of the electric powertrain is typically more than 90%, ...

Testing is one of the most complex and critical parts of any new product or system development process. If debugging plays a fundamental role in improving the reliability of the product, analyzing its ...

Even if you don’t have a Rohde Schwarz oscilloscope, you can still enjoy their recent video about using an oscilloscope to measure power supply efficiency. Of course, you don’t have to have a scope to ...

A power adapter must be safe to use and isolate the user from lethal AC mains voltage. Adapters or external power supplies must also not damage the environment with unnecessary power draw in use and ...

A method has been developed that allows direct, accurate calculation of recovery efficiency for Claus sulfur-recovery units (SRU). The calculation combines feed-gas data and tail-gas composition to ...

A maximum power point tracking (MPPT) controller circuit is extremely useful in solar photovoltaic systems for boosting power usage efficiency. The traditional MPPT design, though, requires the use of ...

Proving that size isn’t everything, the Top500 List of supercomputers for the first time is looking at power efficiency. With the IT industry increasingly looking at growing electric bills and calls ...
