Short time current withstand calculation for busbars
is K2S2 = I2t (K square S square = I square t) a correct formula for calculating the busbar cross section using short time current value?for example i have 40kA overcurrent for duration of 3 sec for a copper busbar and i want to have the cross section.
if it is a correct formula,what is K??
Scratch Resistant Polycarbonate
Hello Friends and Associates ...
Somewhat of a perplexing situation that I write in hopes of finding a simple solution.
In our products we use a lot of plastic components, most often ABS and Polycarbonates, the latter primarily for "faceplates" and "display panels" ... usually small-ish (m

Job Description For An Engineer
The following is an excerpt from a job description for a Marine Engineer. Notice the emphasis on the words underlined. It would seem a knowledge of marine engineering would be first and foremost, not a bean counter. Also note the spelling of the fourth from the last word. Says something about educa
Stepper Torque
Hi,
Im trying to determine the torque on old steppers from printers for a project Im doing. I cant find specs on these, so im considering tying a string to the shaft and making the stepper lift increasingly heavier weights. Can I burn the motor doing this? Is there any other way of determinin
The Next Robber Barons
Back in the 1800's, the railroad magnets were called robber barons. Are the oil companies the next to receive this coveted title?
Electric Motor Variable Load
finally I finished installing my 3-phase testing station (based on rotary converter) with variable autotransformer on the output, so I have volts from 0 to 580V.
Now I need an idea for a variable load on the motors that I'll be driving from the VFDs I fix.
I'm thinking about E
Tesla Earthquake Machine.
I recently watched an episode of "Mythbusters" featuring an attempt at recreating Tesla's "Earthquake Machine" or mechanical oscillator.
The goal, as usual, was to prove/disprove Tesla's claim of the machines destructive capabilities.
The conclusion I made was that these guys are in seriou
HOO HA, gettin' married!
Good day all @ CR4. I HAD SOME BEER. Today is the 18th, tomorrow is the 19th & I'm getting married to the most wonderful person imaginable.

What Good Building Simulation Software is Available?
I'm looking to find building simulation software that will model heating/cooling loads, energy usage, taking into account the usual factors of wall/glass/roof/floor construction, internal loads, weather data, etc.
I'd like some free software that is designed for engineers, and is easy to us
DC Chopper
What does a DC chopper do?
Lifting a transformer
We have a 100T transformer that we want to lift and put on a trailer (bvzhy) but we don't have a crane in the site. So we must design a lifting structure with for example beams and hydraulic jacks and etc.
Therefore I want some information about these structures, please.
