Electrical charge capacity

The electrical charge capacity of an item depends on the condition of its surface, on the dielectric constant, the surface resistivity, and the relative humidity of the surrounding... 

Figure 20 shows the charge-discharge characteristics of the AA-size nickel-metal hydride battery in comparison with the nickel-cadmium battery produced by Sanyo Electric. Its capacity density is 1.5 to 1.8 higher than that of nickel-cadmium batteries. 

Main electrode features, which determine the energy density of an electrochemical storage cell, are the volumetric or specific capacity, i.e., the electric charge that electrodes can store per unit volume or weight, respectively, and the electrochemical potential they produce. Considering thermodynamic reasons, lithium, as being the most electropositive (-3.04 V vs. SHE) metal, is exceptional for use as... 

The application of ion exchangers to dextrose process liquors involved considerable experimental work because of a number of factors which do not enter into their application to water purification. The accumulation of fats and proteins on the resin surfaces must be guarded against by proper clarification of the liquors to be treated. Such accumulation may result from precipitation as the neutralization progresses, and may soon destroy the effective acid-removing capacity of the anion exchange resin. This difficulty can effectively be eliminated by prior precipitation of thfe refinery residue from the acid liquor by bentonite, a colloidal clay of opposite electrical charge to the colloids,21 followed by filtration. 

An electric field induces a dipole moment in non-polar solvent molecules and consequently these molecules become electrostatically aligned with the electric field according to the field polarity. Hence, the dielectric constant describes the capacity of a solvent to separate the electric charges of a solute through an appropriate orientation of its molecules. 

When specified, a removable steam heating element external to the oil reservoir or a thermostatically controlled electric immersion heater with a sheath of austenitic stainless steel shall be provided for heating the charge capacity of oil before start-up in cold weather. The heating device shall have sufficient capacity to heat the oil in the reservoir from the specified minimum site ambient temperature to the manufacturer s required start-up temperature within 12 hours. If an electric immersion heater is used, the watt density shall not exceed 2.33 watts per sq. cm (15 watts per sq. in.). 

M = z f Ffi, where ja is the magnetic permeability of the medium (assumed to be equal to unity for air) F, the force at a point in magnetic field and r the distance between the poles. It follows that F = mm V jur2 ESU ate based on the strength of electrical charges (q and q ) q = Fk, where k is the specific inductive capacity ot dielectric constant (assumed as unity for air F, the force between two charges and r the distance. It follows that F =qqVkc2(See also " Electrostatic Law of Coulomb )...
