  2. Load bank - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Load_bank

    Load bank. An air-cooled load bank, being used for acceptance testing of a 3000 kW standby diesel generator set. This is one of three banks used to load the generator to verify performance on load changes and for factory run-in. A load bank is a piece of electrical test equipment used to simulate an electrical load, to test an electric power ...

  3. Thermoelectric generator - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thermoelectric_generator

    A thermoelectric generator ( TEG ), also called a Seebeck generator, is a solid state device that converts heat (driven by temperature differences) directly into electrical energy through a phenomenon called the Seebeck effect [1] (a form of thermoelectric effect ). Thermoelectric generators function like heat engines, but are less bulky and ...

  5. Capacity factor - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Capacity_factor

    Capacity factor. The net capacity factor is the unitless ratio of actual electrical energy output over a given period of time to the theoretical maximum electrical energy output over that period. [1] The theoretical maximum energy output of a given installation is defined as that due to its continuous operation at full nameplate capacity over ...

  6. Function generator - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Function_generator

    In electrical engineering, a function generator is usually a piece of electronic test equipment or software used to generate different types of electrical waveforms over a wide range of frequencies. Some of the most common waveforms produced by the function generator are the sine wave, square wave, triangular wave and sawtooth shapes.

  7. Chemical oxygen generator - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chemical_oxygen_generator

    A chemical oxygen generator is a device that releases oxygen via a chemical reaction. The oxygen source is usually an inorganic superoxide, [1] chlorate, or perchlorate. Ozonides are a promising group of oxygen sources, as well. The generators are usually ignited by a firing pin, and the chemical reaction is usually exothermic, making the ...

  9. Arbitrary waveform generator - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Arbitrary_waveform_generator

    An arbitrary waveform generator ( AWG) is a piece of electronic test equipment used to generate electrical waveforms. [1] [2] [3] These waveforms can be either repetitive or single-shot (once only) in which case some kind of triggering source is required (internal or external). The resulting waveforms can be injected into a device under test ...
