Mean effective pressure — The mean effective pressure is a quantity related to the operation of an reciprocating engine and is a valuable measure of an engine s capacity to do work that is independent of engine displacement[1]. When quoted as an indicated mean effective… … Wikipedia
Power handling — In audio electronics, there are ways to rate the power handling of components. These ratings are often unaccurate or accurate to a very small degree as there are very limited instances in which the ratings would be accurate. This article focuses… … Wikipedia
Power supply unit (computer) — Power supply unit with top cover removed A power supply unit (PSU) supplies direct current (DC) power to the other components in a computer. It converts general purpose alternating current (AC) electric power from the mains (110 V to… … Wikipedia
Power 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… … Wikipedia
Audio power — Sound measurements Sound pressure p, SPL Particle velocity v, SVL Particle displacement ξ Sound intensity I, SIL Sound power Pac Sound power level SWL Sound energy Sound energy density … Wikipedia
Root mean square — In mathematics, the root mean square (abbreviated RMS or rms), also known as the quadratic mean, is a statistical measure of the magnitude of a varying quantity. It is especially useful when variates are positive and negative, e.g., sinusoids.It… … Wikipedia
Tidal power — Tidal power, sometimes called tidal energy, is a form of hydropower that converts the energy of tides into electricity or other useful forms of power.Although not yet widely used, tidal power has potential for future electricity generation. Tides … Wikipedia
Uninterruptible power supply — A small free standing UPS … Wikipedia
Space solar power — Space based solar power (SBSP or SSP) is the conversion of solar energy into power, usable either in space or on earth, from a location in space, usually geosynchronous orbit (GSO). Photovoltaics (PV) would generally be utilized for energy… … Wikipedia
