power transfer function
1Optical transfer function — The optical transfer function (OTF) of an imaging system (camera, video system, microscope etc) is the true measure of resolution (image sharpness) that the system is capable of. The common practice of defining resolution in terms of pixel count… …
2Signal transfer function — The signal transfer function (SiTF) is a measure of the signal output versus the signal input of a system such as an infrared system or sensor. [cite book | title = The Optical Transfer Function of Imaging Systems | author = Tom L. Williams |… …
3Power engineering — Power engineering, also called power systems engineering, is a subfield of electrical engineering that deals with the generation, transmission and distribution of electric power as well as the electrical devices connected to such systems… …
4Transfer-matrix method — In physics and mathematics, the transfer matrix method is a general technique for solving problems in statistical mechanics. The basic idea is to write the partition function in the form:mathcal{Z} = mathbf{v} {0} cdot left{ prod {k=1}^{N}… …
5Power failure transfer — In telecommunication, the term power failure transfer has the following meanings: 1. The switching of primary utilities to their secondary backup whenever the primary source operates outside its design parameters. This is accomplished via a… …
6Power (physics) — In physics, power is the rate at which energy is transferred, used, or transformed. For example, the rate at which a light bulb transforms electrical energy into heat and light is measured in watts the more wattage, the more power, or what is the …
7Power factor — For other uses, see Power factor (pistol). The power factor of an AC electric power system is defined as the ratio of the real power flowing to the load over the apparent power in the circuit,[1][2] and is a dimensionless number between 0 and 1… …
8Wireless energy transfer — or wireless power is the transmission of electrical energy from a power source to an electrical load without artificial interconnecting conductors. Wireless transmission is useful in cases where interconnecting wires are inconvenient, hazardous,… …
9AC power — This article deals with power in AC systems. See Mains electricity for information on utility supplied AC power. Usually hidden from the unaided eye, the blinking of (non incandescent) lighting powered by AC mains is revealed in this motion… …
10Wind power forecasting — A wind power forecast corresponds to an estimate of the expected production of one or more wind turbines (referred to as a wind farm) in the near future. By production is often meant available power for wind farm considered (with units kW or MW… …
