      Good Day. I was wondering if you could help explain how to convert a 3phase alternator to single phase.
      Because I have 2 units of 5kv 3phase diesel gensets but most of my equipments runs on single phase. Therefore each phase couldn't take up much load.
      An educational video on the basics of alternators for gensets running at various RPM , number of poles, frequencies and it's associated pros and cons would be a great addition to your channel. Thank you.

    Thirty years ago, for testing OEM air cond pipes and hoses, our engineering laboratory used a helium leak detector (small mass spectrometer optimised for helium) to assess the joints. It used two vacuum pumps plus a diffusion pump.

    They are also used in the Dairy industry to supply vacuum for the milking units. They are quite large. There are usually at least two vacuum pumps connected to a parlor. If one goes down the other one is used, or they are both used in conjunction to help take the load off of one unit. If the vacuum pump goes down the milking facility cannot function so it's normal to oversize the pumps so that one pump can run the system itself, albeit barely, or have a backup pump just in case. A small dairy farm (~50-100 milking head) will have pumps that are about 1' wide and 2' long mounted with a large ballast tank. A larger farm (~500 - 2000 milking head) will have pumps the size of engine blocks. This video was helpful as I have worked around these things my whole life and always wondered how they actually created vacuum.

    Wow. This is excellent. The dual units is a trip. So would adding a third increase force linearly?
    Hint: Not linearly, but logrithmically, approaching 0 at n = infinity.
    Nice touch adding the tip about heating the coil to extract more of the water.

    I have a vacuum pump, but never knew the mechanics of it. Now I know.
    Incidentally, it is the same mechanics that are in my hand-cranked fuel transfer pump, with the inlet being the tube on the bottom that goes into the bulk tank/drum, and the outlet being the spout on top of the pump. These pumps are nice because they are self-priming and reversible.

    • @christianburger1456
      @christianburger1456 4 года назад +1

      @@gunnarallgottsmann as the balloon gets bigger it's surface grows but the Material gets thinner. Therefore the tension gets less. Because the bigger balloon has less tension it's pressure is lower than the pressure of the little one and air flows from the little balloon to the big balloon. To experience this yourself just blow up a balloon. At first it's hard to produce the pressure with your lungs but at a certain point it reverses and it's easier to blow air into it the bigger the balloon gets.
      Hope that answers your question.

    Good explanation except 4:29. Given the same type, a less inflated balloon always has higher pressure. If you connect less inflated balloon to a more inflated one, the smaller will always inflate the larger one. The same is true with soap bubbles.

    Good have a question can a system that sucks air and hold it then release it.
    Let's say we have coloured air we calculate the volume and fill up a transparent glass then we reverse it making it colourless?
