Demand is growing for appliances such as washing machines, refrigerators, and air conditioners to help improve domestic energy efficiency. Moving from conventional fixed-speed motors to variable-speed ...

First note - I am a completely new to water cooling, this is the first build I've done. With GPU prices the way they are, I decided to try for an overclock vs a new GPU. Things are working well, and I ...

The 15 series enclosed Digital Speed Controller from Dart Controls is available in open or closed chassis styles and NEMA 1 ...

The way we control the speed of fan motors or pump motors has tremendously changed in the past two decades with the introduction of variable-frequency drives (VFDs), aka variable-frequency controllers ...

Motors are driving demand for electricity, accounting for about half of the electricity we consume, according to the Electric Power Research Institute (EPRI). Many of these motors are found throughout ...

The topic of motors and motor control techniques is wide and varied. Part one of this two-part article will cover the principles of alternating-current (AC) motor operation and control. Part two will ...

Another method worth considering in any discussion of motor control isvector control. The detailed formulation of this method to control thetorque and flux in PMSM was originally achieved by Jahns, ...

When implementing cooling solutions for electronic equipment, system designers are confronted with a complex set of variables. The cooling requirements are typically dynamic, and ambient temperatures ...

It is interesting to look at figures from the Energy Information Administration about where energy gets consumed in our economy. These figures reveal that industrial uses account for 31% of all energy ...

In my previous article on loop tuning, I discussed the importance of field data collection and the importance of a methodical approach to PID tuning. I introduced the concept of the bump test and how ...
