Explain the need for thermal analysis and the need for effective heat dissipation for an electronic circuit?
Thermal analysis are used to prevent the electronics circuit being damaged, such as heat sinks are used to absorb the heat which is created by the components to protect the sensitive components
What is the difference between power consumption and power dissipation?
A: POWER consumption is total power usage power dissipation is wasted power in the form of heat, IR drop and so on.
Do power stations use heat to generate electricity?
Yes most power stations do use heat to generate electricity. Heat energy of the fuel (e.g. burning coal, burning oil, nuclear fission) is utilized to heat water present in the boiler. This heating generates steam, which is then utilized to run the turbine. However some power stations get the energy to generate electricity without using heat (e.g. hydroelectric dams, wind power, sea wave power, solar cell generation systems).
What is resistance power?
All resistances will emit heat energy when a current flows. The heat production rate (or power) can be found by any of these formulas: Power = Current * Voltage Power = Current2 * Resistance Power = Voltage2 / Resistance. Power is given in Watts when Current is in Amps, Voltage in Volts, and Resistance in Ohms.
The ability or power to transmit heat electricity or sound?
conductivity
