    How Can You Determine the Capacitance Needed for a Single Phase Capacitor Motor?

    Hi guys, I have a question about working out the capacitance of a capacitor. I am not great at electronics, but if i understand correctly the capacitor in a capacitor motor is what makes it start spinning. I'm wondering is anyone could recommend a good resource for reading about how this...

    Hydrolics, Forces and flow rate.

    Thanks, those formulas have been quite useful. By parking barrier i meant the type of barrier use in car parks to let you in/ out. The are usually powered using an electric motor or a hydrolic pump. The is no counter balance

    Hydrolics, Forces and flow rate.

    Hi, I'm currently trying to work out the forces involved in raising a traffic barrier. It works using hydrolics. It has a motor that has a speed of 1400 rpm and 1/3 hp. the torque of the motor is 200Nm the pump is a lobe pump and has a delivery of 1.5 l/min. The pump will move the...
