Energy handling capability

They also pose limitations for installations that connect a number of cables and capacitor banks, as these also require a higher energy handling capability. 

However, we must not forget that if, for example, we increase the load current (i.e. a change in application conditions), we will clearly need to move to a larger inductor (with greater energy-handling capability). But simultaneously, we will need to decrease the inductance. That s because Idc will increase, and so to keep to the optimum value of r, we will need to increase AI in the same proportion as the increase in Idc- And to do this, we have to decrease, rather than increase, L. 

The energy-handling capability of an inductor, 1/2 x LI2, is one way of picking the size of the inductor. But most vendors do not provide this number upfront. However, they do provide one or more current ratings. And if we interpret these current rating(s) correctly, that serves the purpose too. 

We can see from Figure 2-6, that this calls for an energy-handling capability (size of inductor) almost 3 x the optimum ... 

Note that z can range from 1 (no gap) to virtually any value. A z of 10, for example, increases the energy-handling capability of an ungapped core set by a factor of 10 (its Al value falls by the same factor, and so does its effective permeability — xc = x Xo/z). So large gaps certainly help, but since we are still interested in maintaining L to a certain value... 

Knowledge of the input RMS current is necessary to correctly estimate the copper losses in both the CM and DM chokes, whereas knowledge of the peak current is necessary to correctly estimate the DM core volume (its energy handling capability). In a CM choke, the input ac line current effectively cancels out, so its saturation is usually not considered either a possibility or a concern. That means it is chopped out of a vertically offset sine wave of that time period.

The ab initio methods in Gaussian are also capable of handling any type of atom, including metals. Gaussian computes a variety of molecular properties in addition to the energies and structures. Gaussian can investigate molecules in their excited states and in solution. 

Reliable analytical methods are available for determination of many volatile nitrosamines at concentrations of 0.1 to 10 ppb in a variety of environmental and biological samples. Most methods employ distillation, extraction, an optional cleanup step, concentration, and final separation by gas chromatography (GC). Use of the highly specific Thermal Energy Analyzer (TEA) as a GC detector affords simplification of sample handling and cleanup without sacrifice of selectivity or sensitivity. Mass spectrometry (MS) is usually employed to confirm the identity of nitrosamines. Utilization of the mass spectrometer s capability to provide quantitative data affords additional confirmatory evidence and quantitative confirmation should be a required criterion of environmental sample analysis. Artifactual formation of nitrosamines continues to be a problem, especially at low levels (0.1 to 1 ppb), and precautions must be taken, such as addition of sulfamic acid or other nitrosation inhibitors. The efficacy of measures for prevention of artifactual nitrosamine formation should be evaluated in each type of sample examined.
