Sentences with phrase «losses over long distances»

They have very low losses over long distances.

The reasoning is fairly straightforward: unlike AC transmission, DC suffers low voltage losses over long distances.

«If you want to transmit the information signal, you have to use optics, because optical fiber has very low loss over a long distance,» he said.

Yes, there are places in the United States where the sun is likely to shine on an un-obscured basis far more often than in other places, and transmission via HVDC lines (rather than AC) has materially less loss over long distances (and is convenient for solar since a solar cell generates DC power in the first place; as such it requires only one conversion, to AC at the receiving end, if HVDC transmission is used.)

Not exact matches

But that, too, has its problems — not just of power loss and heat generation over long distances, but also of public acceptability and cost.

The superconducting wires shown in the photo above are capable of moving 5x the amount of electricity as copper wires, with lower heat and energy losses, which make it possible to more efficiently transmit electricity over long distances.

This means that it becomes possible to transmit a signal over long distances (in chip standards) with no losses.

Fiber - optic networks already use light to transport data over long distances at high speed and with minimum loss.

How can I incorporate long distance over an hour running sessions (10 - 15k) into a fat loss, muscle building regime?

One Life's weight loss success has truly been incredible — from those with only 10 pounds to lose to those with over 100, for both men and women, young and old, local or long distance.

By increasing the voltage to a very high level, large quantities of electricity can be transmitted over long distances with little loss of power.

HVDC technology can move more power over longer distances with less electrical loss than alternating current (AC) transmission routes; by doing so, HVDC transmission preserves land resources and maximizes clean energy availability.

Furthermore, moving electricity over long distances (to places where it is needed) results in «line losses» reducing its true availability and increasing its cost.

There are ways to minimize losses, but over such long distances, there will always be some.

«HVDC has the ability to transmit large amounts of power over long distances with lower capital costs and with lower losses than AC.

Besides, most families have to undertake frequent trips, often over long distances, to access dialysis services, incurring heavy travel costs and loss of wages.
