Capacitive reactance (X C ) and inductive reactance (X L) tell us something about the energy storage capacity and inductive field generation of the device. Note that when X C and X L are equal, the ...

The inductive reactance of that power system increases and the capacitive reactance decreases as the frequency increases, or as the harmonic order increases. At a given harmonic frequency in any ...

The reactance of a capacitor will be less at higher frequencies. For example, a .001 mfd (1000 picofarad) capacitor is 159 ohms at 1000 kHz, the middle of the AM broadcast band.

A simple and direct method for measuring ESR is proposed in [3], in which the ESR is determined directly by the ratio of the capacitor’s ripple voltage to ripple current. But the implementation ...

A passive whip antenna can be built and deployed in those situations where the active antennas are not suitable. THE THEORY As an antenna gets very short with respect to a wavelength, its resistance ...

This gave a vernier control to the capacitor’s reactance ranging from 1.33 ohms to 16 ohms. This control not only provided SSR dampening, but provided power swing checking, dynamic power control, ...

With a capacitor between them, the circuit essentially shifts the input to a new DC level, like this: The reactance of the capacitor, of course, depends on the frequency, according to 1/ (2*π*f*C).

Bypass capacitors are the focus of this technical paper, which presents actual measurement results of different capacitor bypass networks.
