Variable capacitor — Rotary variable capacitor A variable capacitor (also known as a variable air condenser ) is a capacitor whose capacitance may be intentionally and repeatedly changed mechanically or electronically. Variable capacitors are often used in L/C… … Wikipedia
stator — [1] A small hub, upon which a series of vanes are affixed in a radial position, that is so placed that oil leaving the torque converterturbine strikes the stator vanes and is redirected into the pump at an angle conducive to high efficiency. The… … Dictionary of automotive terms
Variable-frequency drive — A variable frequency drive (VFD) is a system for controlling the rotational speed of an alternating current (AC) electric motor by controlling the frequency of the electrical power supplied to the motor.cite book | first=Sylvester J. |… … Wikipedia
stator blade — The fixed/variable incidence blade attached to the axial flow compressor stator casing. The first stage of the stators normally is variable incidence, whereas the later stages are fixed. They help direct the airflow at the optimum angle onto the… … Aviation dictionary
Variable frequency transformer — A variable frequency transformer is used to transmit electricity between two asynchronous alternating current domains. The VFT is a relatively recent development (first deployed in 2004). Most grid interties use high voltage direct current… … Wikipedia
variable-angle stator vanes — Compressor stator vanes whose angle can be varied. The angle is controlled by the fuel control unit. Varying the stator vane angle ensures that the air directed to the first stage of the compressor meets the compressor at an optimum angle and… … Aviation dictionary
variable pitch stator — A stator that has vanes that may be adjusted to various angles depending on load conditions. The vane adjustment will increase or decrease the efficiency of the stator … Dictionary of automotive terms
Rotary variable differential transformer — A rotary variable differential transformer (RVDT) is a type of electrical transformer used for measuring angular displacement.More precisely, a Rotary Variable Differential Transformer (RVDT) is an electromechanical transducer that provides a… … Wikipedia
Rotary Variable Differential Transformer — Un RVDT (de l anglais Rotary Variable Differential Transformer) est un capteur électrique actif (inductif) de déplacements de rotation. Le débattement est en général limité jusqu à +/ 40°. Principe Un RVDT est composé le plus souvent d un paquet… … Wikipédia en Français
