INDUCTANCE VS. RESISTANCE

The higher the inductance q the more energy it can store

The higher the inductance q the more energy it can store

A higher Q factor indicates that the inductor has a low energy loss, meaning it is more efficient in its energy storage and release in the magnetic field. Conversely, a lower Q factor indicates higher energy losses, primarily due to the resistance of the coil. [pdf]

Insulation resistance requirements for solar container systems

Insulation resistance requirements for solar container systems

To pass International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) standards for insulation resistance testing, PV systems with an open circuit voltage rating greater than 120 Vdc must have an insulation resistance greater than 1 MΩ. [pdf]

Standard value of grounding resistance of solar container station

Standard value of grounding resistance of solar container station

The NFPA and IEEE recommend a ground resistance value of 5 ohms or less while the NEC has stated to “Make sure that system impedance to ground is less than 5 ohms specified in NEC 50.56. In facilities with sensitive equipment it should be 5ohms or less”. [pdf]

Mutual inductance and solar container

Mutual inductance and solar container

A current flowing through a conductor generates a around the conductor, which is described by . The total through a circuit is equal to the product of the perpendicular component of the magnetic flux density and the area of the surface spanning the current path. If the current varies, the through the circuit changes. By , any change in flux through a circuit induces an (EMF, ) in the circuit, proportional to t. Electromagnetic torques generated by mutual inductance between energized coils are widely used in aerospace applications, especially for solar panel deployment. Accurate and rapid acquisition of mutual inductance between coils is essential to provide the necessary electromagnetic force. [pdf]
