I invented a 2-phase DC battery pack
Here's what my genius mind came up with. First I obtained a standard D-cell battery pack that holds 2 batteries in series. Next I installed a center tap between the two batteries in the battery pack. So now I have a series battery pack with three terminals: L1 is the (-) negative terminal on battery A N is the center or neutral tap between battery A and B L2 is the (+) positive terminal on battery B So to prove I have 2-phase DC, I connected a dual-trace oscilloscope as follows: The reference leads from both probes were connected to the center neutral tap. Probe A was connected to L1 Probe B was connected to L2 As I expected, the scope showed a 1.5 volt positive phase trace and a 1.5 volt negative phase trace. Clearly I have 3 volt 2 phase DC. The only thing left to do is submit my paper to IEEE. |

Troll. Phase has no meaning on DC. 3 wire / 2 voltage DC goes back to
Edison if not farther. Emma Genius wrote: Here's what my genius mind came up with. First I obtained a standard D-cell battery pack that holds 2 batteries in series.

They work by turning DC and on off in period of around 22 miliseconds to select the leters to be printed. The coils have an inductance of around 1 henry. While they will pull in the levers with as little as 10 volts, it will be too slow for correct printing. It takes so long for the DC to make its way through the coil and the maximum magnetic field to be generated. One way around it is to use around 150 volts and a series resistance of 2500 ohms. This keeps the overall current down but lets the levers pull in faster. |

Education is to teach the theory by understanding the math behind it and through experiment to confirm it in the lab. Theory without real life experience is useless. First thing I learned after leaving school, on the first job site. Today's young engineers hardly do manual calculations. They just tap the keys on computer. When I showed my son old slide ruler i used to use, the look on his face....He is a consulting engineer in civil. |

Quote:
Fourier postulated that every periodic wave could be represented by the sum of a series of sinusoidal waves. So far as I know, the vice versa isn't true. You can't represent a sinusoidal wave as the sum of a series of square waves or saw tooth waves or any other kind of wave (spherical wave) for that matter.. A Pictorial Introduction to Fourier Analysis/Synthesis If that were the case, then anyone explaining Fourier Synthesis would make the point loud and clear that you can represent any periodic wave as the sum of a series of ANY KIND of wave, square, sinusoidal, sawtooth, take your pick. But they don't say that. They say that you can represent any periodic wave as the sum of a series of sinusoidal waves, and they stop there. So, the idea that a sine wave can be represented by the sum of a series of square waves just doesn't work for me. That's because in Fourier synthesis, there is a mathematical relationship between the waves comprising the series; you just can't hobble together various sine waves of varying amplitudes and frequencies to get something that fits. There has to be a mathematical expression by which one can determine what each wave in the series to be summed should be. Last edited by nestork : December 2nd 13 at 05:24 AM |

'A Pictorial Introduction to Fourier Analysis/Synthesis' (http://psych.hanover.edu/krantz/fourier/) If that were the case, then anyone explaining Fourier Synthesis would make the point loud and clear that you can represent any periodic wave as the sum of a series of ANY KIND of wave, square, sinusoidal, sawtooth, take your pick. But they don't say that. They say that you can represent any periodic wave as the sum of a series of sinusoidal waves, and they stop there. Hi. Didn't I say the same? This is how DAC, ADC circuits work, No? |

Nestork- That is exactly what a college professor wrote a paper on, over 50 years ago. As I recall, he used a series of step functions to synthesize other waveforms, and suggested that the process was not restricted to sine and step. My memory is getting dim, but I think the paper was written by Dr. Wayne Chen, who became chairman of the department of Electrical Engineering at the University of Florida in the late 1960s. I think the mathematics involved in the use of sine waves may be much simpler! Fred |

Probe A was connected to L1 Probe B was connected to L2 As I expected, the scope showed a 1.5 volt positive phase trace and a 1.5 volt negative phase trace. Clearly I have 3 volt 2 phase DC. The only thing left to do is submit my paper to IEEE. Ok, now do this. Take two 12 volt car batteries. Center tap just like you did. Put two starters on your engine. One starter will go clockwise. the other will go counter-clockwise. Have them both turn at the same time, and your engine wont start! How is that for genius? |

Feels like I am back at school sitting in a class room or lab. You *obviously* need to be back there because you never learned even the basics. ...'nother freakin' Cracker Jax engineer. Hi, By any chance you have any one who worked at Honeywell? Ask him about Gold tiger ring..... You really are as stupid as you sound. Amazing. |

Between two test leads, and fast enough it'll sown sine wave. WTF??? Sine wave is integrated kazillion sq. waves of diffferent amplitudes . Thompsons theorem, right? Square waves are composed of sine waves: Fourier. You spew this crap and ignore the little thing of "infinity". Do you have a brain? Very funny you know that and not the other one? The "other one" doesn't matter a crap. The fact is that "square waves" don't exist in reality, either, stupid. We are talking pretty well same thing. Integration and differentiation. Fourier used these. What a dumbass! |

Since you're a genius, perhaps you can do what no one else here except myself has been able to do and that is give a definition of the electricl engineeing term "phase". You have 10 people pontificating on it, yet not one of them can define it. I gave the defintion a week ago. |

Is it possible for you to disagree with someone over something without insulting them?
It makes you look like a 14 year old when you do that. |
