Reaction Turbine simple explanation BY Yuvi - Study Point

Hey everyone, today in this blog we are going to study about reaction turbine.
So, without wasting any time lets get started.

  • By reacting to the pressure or weight of the fluid the reaction turbines develop torque.
  • Reaction turbines are used in different power plants and mills all around the world. For example ~ hydropower plants, windmills Etc. To generate electricity efficiently. 
  • Have you ever heard about Newton's third law of motion? The operation of the reaction turbine is can be properly explained or described with the help of Newton's third law of motion.
  • Newton's third law of motion states that every action has an equal and opposite reaction.
  • Because when water is coming out from both the nozzles then in the opposite direction of the nozzles a reaction force is generated which makes the rotor to rotate or we can say the reaction force develops torque.
  • And this procedure shows that every action has an equal and opposite reaction which means (the newton's third law of motion).
  • (when fluid passes through the rotor blades the pressure of the fluid changes).
  • The difference between the reaction turbine and impulse turbine.
  • Reaction turbine is not remain dipped in water but impulse turbines remain dipped in water.
  • Impulse turbine uses the pressure energy of water to generate power.

Reaction turbine has different main components. For example ~ runner blades, guide vanes, draft tube, spiral casing, etc. 
So, in this lecture video, I have explained properly about the reaction turbine working principle, applications, proper working, its main components, a problem which is known as cavitation.

NBFM & WBFM (Narrow band frequency modulation & Wide band frequency modulation) simple explanation. By Yuvi - Study Point

Hey everyone, today we are going to learn about NBFM & WBFM (Narrowband frequency modulation & Wideband frequency modulation) in simple or easy way. So, without wasting any time lets get started. The information about NBFM & WBFM When the spectrum's efficiency is important or it is required then we use NBFM (Narrowband frequency modulation) is used.  But when better signal quality is required or when it is important then we use WBFM (Wideband frequency modulation). The term NBFM is used for those applications where the modulation index is less than or equal to 1. And the term WBFM is used for those applications where the modulation index is greater than or equal to 1. Now, let's see more difference between Narrow band frequency modulation(NBFM) and Wideband frequency modulation(WBFM). The term narrow-band and wide-band refer to the actual radio channel bandwidth. The purpose or advantage of using NBFM (Narrowband frequency modulation) The purpo...

Corona effect in transmission lines.| Explanation by Yuvi - Study Point

You all have heard about the Corona effect in transmission lines, now understand it in a simple way. This effect is a phenomenon which is associated with all transmission lines. At certain conditions, the electric field closer or near the energized conductors or components produces a tiny electric discharge or we can say corona which causes the surrounding air to ionize. And due to this ionization of surrounding air molecules of conductors, a luminous glow with hissing noise is produced which is known as Corona effect. Between the transmission lines, air act as a dielectric medium or we can say that air act as an insulator between current-carrying conductors. Between the conductors, voltage induces and if this voltage is of alternating nature then charging current will flow between the conductors. And the voltage of this transmission line and electric field intensity increases because of this charging conductor. There is a predetermined value of the electric field inten...

Difference between Alternator and Generator. By Yuvi - Study Point

Hey everyone, today we are going to see the simple difference between Alternator and Generator. So, without wasting any time lets get started. Alternator   An alternator is a machine that converts mechanical energy from a prime mover into the A.C electrical power at a specific frequency and voltage. Alternator induces an alternating current. The input supply in the alternator is taken from the stator.  The alternator has a variable output e.m.f. The alternator is smaller in size as compared to the generator and that's why it requires less space as compared to the generator. The output of the alternator is higher than the generator. The alternator has a wide range of rotation per minute (RPM). The armature of an alternator is stationary which means in an alternator, electricity is produced when the magnetic field spins inside the stator (winding of wire).    The alternator has a rotating magnetic field. A dead battery is can't be charged by an alterna...
