    Ac Reactance Rpm
AI Thread Summary
Reluctance does not change frequency in AC systems. The discussion highlights the relationship between reactance and frequency, noting that capacitors have an inverse relationship while inductors have a direct relationship. Clarification is sought regarding the specific context of the question, such as whether it pertains to induction motors or arc welders. Understanding the application is crucial for accurate analysis. The conversation emphasizes the need for context to address questions about AC RPM and reactance effectively.

TL;DR Summary
For Rate of cutting in ac that means a higher frequency which also means a lower reactance theoretically. If so, why is higher rpm ideal?

No, you can't say that reluctance changes frequency.

Back up. Explain the context of your question please.

Ohh I was thinking about capacitors since Xc=1/(2*pi*f*c) where xc is inversely proportional to Frequency but in inductors they are directly proportional..

We still need context. Are you asking about the RPM of an induction motor? or the cutting speed of an arc welder? Or what does "rate of cutting in AC" mean?

Thread 'Weird near-field phenomenon I get in my EM simulation'

I recently made a basic simulation of wire antennas and I am not sure if the near field in my simulation is modeled correctly. One of the things that worry me is the fact that sometimes I see in my simulation "movements" in the near field that seems to be faster than the speed of wave propagation I defined (the speed of light in the simulation). Specifically I see "nodes" of low amplitude in the E field that are quickly "emitted" from the antenna and then slow down as they approach the far...

Thread 'EMF (Electromagnetic Field) & EHS (Electromagnetic Hyper Sensitivity)'

Hello dear reader, a brief introduction: Some 4 years ago someone started developing health related issues, apparently due to exposure to RF & ELF related frequencies and/or fields (Magnetic). This is currently becoming known as EHS. (Electromagnetic hypersensitivity is a claimed sensitivity to electromagnetic fields, to which adverse symptoms are attributed.) She experiences a deep burning sensation throughout her entire body, leaving her in pain and exhausted after a pulse has occurred...
