    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 'Underwater piezoelectric sensor array receive sensitivity'

Hi all I have some confusion about piezoelectrical sensors combination. If i have three acoustic piezoelectrical sensors (with same receive sensitivity in dB ref V/1uPa) placed at specific distance, these sensors receive acoustic signal from a sound source placed at far field distance (Plane Wave) and from broadside. I receive output of these sensors through individual preamplifiers, add them through hardware like summer circuit adder or in software after digitization and in this way got an...

Thread 'Following up on the recent thread about Earth Resistance measurements'

I have recently moved into a new (rather ancient) house and had a few trips of my Residual Current breaker. I dug out my old Socket tester which tell me the three pins are correct. But then the Red warning light tells me my socket(s) fail the loop test. I never had this before but my last house had an overhead supply with no Earth from the company. The tester said "get this checked" and the man said the (high but not ridiculous) earth resistance was acceptable. I stuck a new copper earth...

Thread 'Beauty of old electrical and measuring things, etc.'

Even as a kid, I saw beauty in old devices. That made me want to understand how they worked. I had lots of old things that I keep and now reviving. Old things need to work to see the beauty. Here's what I've done so far. Two views of the gadgets shelves and my small work space: Here's a close up look at the meters, gauges and other measuring things: This is what I think of as surface-mount electrical components and wiring. The components are very old and shows how...
