WHAT IS BY-PASS FACTOR

BY-PASS FACTOR:
It is defined as the ratio of the difference between the mean surface temperature of the coil and leaving air temperature  to the difference between the mean surface temperature of the coil and leaving air temperature.

WHAT IS SENSIBLE HEATING

SENSIBLE HEATING:
When air passes over a dry surface which is a temperature greater than its dry bulb temperature, it (air) undergoes sensible heating. During sensible heating specific humidity remains constant. During this process dry bulb temperature of air raises and approaches that of dry surface.

SENSIBLE HEAT AND LATENT HEAT

SENSIBLE HEAT:
It is the heat that changes the temperature of a substance when it added to or removed from it.

LATENT HEAT:
It is the heat that does not affect the temperature but changes the state of a substance when added or removed from it.

WHAT IS SYSTEM, BOUNDARY AND SURROUNDINGS

SYSTEM:
A System is a Finite quantity of matter
(or)
Prescribed Region of Space

BOUNDARY:

The actual or hypothetical envelope enclosing the system is called boundary. The boundary may fixed or may move. The boundary may be real or imaginary

SURROUNDINGS:

Everything outside the boundary is called surroundings

WHAT IS CATHODE RAY OSCILLOSCOPE

CATHODE RAY OSCILLOSCOPE:
Cathode ray Oscilloscope is an electronic device which is capable of giving a visual indication of a signal wave form. It is widely used for troubleshooting radio and television receivers.

WHAT IS CATHODE RAY TUBE

CATHODE RAY TUBE:
Cathode Ray Tube is the heart of the oscilloscope.  It is a vacuum tube of special geometrical shape and converts an electrical signal into visual one.  A cathode ray tube makes available plenty of electrons.  These electrons are accelerated to high velocity and are brought to focus on a fluorescent screen.  The electron beam produces a spot of light wherever it strikes.

WHAT IS MICRO ELECTRONICS

MICRO ELECTRIONICS:
Micro Electronics is the branch of electronics engineering which deals with micro circuits.  A micro circuit is simply a miniature assembly of electronic components. e.g Integrated circuit.

WHAT IS AN INTEGRATED CIRCUIT

INTEGRATED CIRCUIT:
An Integrated Circuit is one in which circuit components such as transistors, diodes, resistors, capacitors etc. are automatically part of a small semiconductor chip.

An integrated circuit consists of a number of circuit components ( e.g transistors, diodes, resistors etc) and their inter connections in a single small package to perform a complete electronic function.

WHAT IS MONOLITHIC IC

MONOLITHIC IC:
Monilithic IC is one in which all components and their inter connections are formed on a single thin wafer called substrate.

WHAT ARE HYBRID PARAMETERS

HYBRID PARAMETERS:
Every Linear Circuit having input and output terminals can be analysed by four parameters (one measured in ohm, one in mho and two dimensionless) called hybrid parameters

Hybrid means "mixed".  Since these parameters have mixed dimensions, they are called hybrid parameters.

WHAT IS DIGITAL SIGNAL

Digital Signal:
A Signal (Voltage or Current) that can have only two discrete values is called a digital signal.  A square wave is a digital signal because this signal has only two values. +5V and OV and no other value.

WHAT IS ANALOG SIGNAL

Analog Signal:
A continuously varying signal (Voltage or Current) is called an analog signal.  An alternating voltage varying sinusoidally is an analog signal.

WHAT IS DIGITAL CIRCUIT

Digital Circuit:
An electronic circuit that handles only a digital signal is called a digital circuit.

WHAT ARE LOGIC GATES

LOGIC gates:
A digital circuit with one or more input signals but only one output signal is called a logic gate. Logic gate is a switching circuit.

WHAT ARE THREE BASIC LOGIC GATES

Three Basic Logic Gates:
A Logic gate is a circuit that has one or more input signals but only one output signal.  All logic gates can be analysed by constructing a truth table.  A truth table lists all input possibilities and the corresponding output for each input.

The three basic logic gates that make up all digital circuits are 
1) OR gate  2)  AND gate  3) NOT gate  

WHAT IS OR GATE

OR gate:
OR gate has two or more inputs but only one output. The output y of an OR gate is low when all the inputs are low. The output y of an OR gate is High if any or all the inputs are High.

WHAT IS NOT GATE OR INVERTER

NOT gate:
NOT gate or inverter  has only one input and one output, where the output is opposite of the input. The Not gate is also called "inverter" because it inverts the input.

WHAT IS AND GATE

AND gate:
AND gate is a logic gate that has two or more inputs but only one output.  The output y of AND gate is High when all inputs are high.
The output y of AND gate is low if any or all inputs are low. it is also called "all or nothing gate".  Output will be high when both the inputs are high.

NOT GATE FROM NAND GATE

NOT gate from NAND gate:
When two inputs of NAND gate are joined together so that it has one input, the resulting circuit is NOT gate.

NAND Gate is a Universal Gate

NAND gate is a universal gate because its repeated use can produce other logic gates.

WHAT IS NOR GATE

NOR gate:
It is a combination of OR gate and NOT gate.  Output of OR gate is connected to the input of a NOT gate.

WHAT IS NAND GATE

NAND gate:
It is a combination of AND gate and NOT gate.  Output of AND gate is connected to the input of a NOT gate.

WHAT IS DEMORGAN'S THEOREMS

Demorgan's theorems are used in simplifying expressions which includes a product or sum of variables is inverted

Demorgan's First Theorem:
When the OR sum of two variables is inverted, this is equal to inverting each variable individually and then ANDing these inverted variables.

________          ____   _____
A + B    =     A    .  B

Demorgan's Second Theorem:
When the AND product of two variables is inverted, this is equal to inverting each variable individually  and the ORing them.

______    ___       ___
(A . B ) =   A      +  B

DIFFERENCE BETWEEN FREEZE AND TURN LAYERS OFF IN AUTO CAD

From outside you cannot identify the difference between
FREEZE and TURN LAYERS OFF.  If you Freeze a layer 
then its contents are not displayed.  And Similarly if you
turn off layer, its contents are not displayed.  Only 
difference between these FREEZE and TURN LAYERS OFF
is in display Memory.  When a layer is frozen the information
required to display it on screen is not loaded onto your
graphics card memory.  And when a layer is turned off,
all the information required to display the entities on that 
layer is loaded into your Graphic's Card's Memory.

if you turn off a layer, you get slower panning and zooming
on large/ complex drawings.

If you Freeze a layer, you get faster panning and zooming.

HOW TO CALCULATE KVA POWER REQUIREMENTS OF A GENERATOR

Procedure for  calculating the power (KVA) requirements of a Generator.  

example:  
A house has  10 tube lights, 5 Bulbs, 6 Ceiling Fans,  1 TV, 2 Personal Computers,  1 Laser Printer, 1 Iron Box etc.,

* write down  watts or Volts and Amps from each equipment
printed on its cover or in the manual. 

1 Tube Light = 40 watts, 10 Tube Lights = 10 X 40=400Watts
1 Bulb          = 60 watts,   5 Bulbs = 5 x 60 = 300 Watts
1 CeilingFan = 80 Watts,  6 C.Fans=6 x 80 =440 Watts
1 TV             = 135Watts,  
1 Personal Computer=275 Watts,  2 PC = 2 x 275=550Watts
1 Laser Printer = 375 Watts
1 Iron Box= 1000 Watts

*  Add all the Wattage
   400+ 300+440+135+550+375+1000=3200 Watts

   Total Watts = 3200

*  By Dividing with 1000 we get Kilo Watts
   3200/1000  =  3.2 Kilo Watts or KW

* Take Power Factor is 0.8 ( it depends upon the system
   Efficiency)

* By Dividing  3.2 KW by 0.8  we get the Required KVA

  3.2 / 0.8  = 4 KVA.

 Now select the Generator that is having  4 KVA
 Power generating capacity.
