Radio frequency amplifiers, or RF amplifiers, are components that are capable of boosting low-power radio-frequency signals. Such devices may be beneficial for a number of applications, often serving to drive a high power source, drive a transmitting antenna, or to excite microwave cavity resonators. With many devices relying on such components, an equal number of types have come about with varying characteristics and designs. To help you make the best decision for your particular needs, we will provide a short overview of a few of the most common RF amplifiers that accommodate transceivers, transmitters, antennas, and more.
An impeller is a type of rotor that is often implemented in compressors and pumps in order to increase the pressure and flow of a fluid. Motorized impellers in particular are fan impellers which are fixed to the rotor of an external rotor motor, meaning that they can operate with lower bearing loads and minimal vibration. Motorized impellers also have the ability to serve as a rotating heat sink, ensuring that heat is well dissipated for optimal cooling. With the combination of multiple roles into a single assembly, a motorized impeller serves as an advantageous device for applications in which space is a concern.
Rheostats are variable or adjustable resistors used to divide voltage in applications that require the adjustment of resistance in an electrical circuit. Similar to potentiometers, rheostats are commonly used in applications that call for variable control for higher amounts of voltage. In this blog, we will discuss the construction, operation, and applications of rheostats.
A force sensor is a device used to measure the forces that act on an object. In general, force sensors measure tensile and pressure forces in addition to elastic deformations. However, there are many variants in which force can be measured and determined by the sensors. When determining what type of sensor is best for a certain application, factors such as desired measuring range and expected accuracy are the primary criteria to consider. If a precise value within a small range is needed, the more receptive the force sensor you will need. In this blog, we will discuss the main types of force sensors, how they work, and their benefits.
For anyone who has seen the inside of an aircraft cockpit, the multitude of monitors, switches, knobs, dials, and indicators spread throughout the room can make piloting seem like an impossible endeavor. Nevertheless, it is a matter of having pilots train and learn about the various systems and controls available to them, ensuring that they know how to pilot each aircraft model that they enter. While the layout and availability of various components may differ by aircraft, there are some common elements that span across most types. In this blog, we will discuss some of the most common flight deck components and systems that pilots regularly use.
The aircraft battery is an important part of the electronic system, allowing for power to be provided during ground operations and emergencies, clearing faults, increasing the stability of DC buses, and more. Similar to other aircraft systems and components, the aircraft battery requires regular maintenance to ensure its health and efficiency. Depending on the construction of the battery and its chemical contents, there are a number of ways in which maintenance can be performed.
A transformer is a device that transfers electrical energy from one electric circuit to another without changing the frequency. It does this through the principles of electromagnetic induction, with the energy transfer generally taking place with the change of voltage and current. Transformers are able to either increase or decrease AC voltage and are used to meet a wide range of needs. They can vary greatly in size, some transformers being small enough to hold in your hand and others being several stories high. Regardless of their shape or size, their function remains the same: to transform electrical power from one type to another. This blog will analyze how transformers work and their many different types.
A heat exchanger is an important device that allows heat from a liquid or gas to pass onto a second fluid without the two fluids having to come into direct contact or mix with one another. More simply put, a heat exchanger transfers heat without transferring the actual source of the heat. Throughout the aerospace industry, heat exchangers are used for both for cooling and heating. They are used in aircraft of all sizes, both fixed wing and rotary, and in many different aircraft systems. In addition to the engine, they are frequently used to cool hydraulics, ram air, auxiliary power units, gearboxes, and many other components found in an aircraft.
LED lights are immensely beneficial in the interior cabin of an aircraft. But people often underestimate just how helpful they have been. How do LED lights help? For one, they are the best products to provide efficient illumination, which in turn improves the aesthetics of you interior cabin and can also improve confidence from your passengers and other observers. However there are certainly many more advantages to having LED lights as opposed to the older modes of lighting. For more information, read the article below.
Electric motors have a critical role in nearly all industries. Using the right motor in conjunction with high-quality parts and regular servicing ensures your machines will run smoothly and prevents equipment damage related to power surges. Electric motors are machines that convert electrical energy, whether from stored power or a direct electrical connection, into mechanical energy through the production of rotational force. There are two types of electric motors: AC motors, which are powered by alternating current, and DC motors, which are powered by direct current. This blog will explain the ins and outs of electric motors and their function.
