How do you convert an RMS current value to a DC value?

RMS current is converted to DC current by using a rectifier. Capacitors and other components are used to make a cleaner DC output with less ripple.


What would be the rms value of current if the instantaneous value at 45 degrees is 70.7 amps?

100 ampere


What is difference between RMS and true RMS?

RMS means root mean square and watts means power. What a difference! Scroll down to related links and look for a neat pressure converter at"Root Mean Square" und knowlege about "Watt" Watts root mean square is the effective value of alternating current electrical power compared to direct current power. Scroll down to related links and look for "Why there is no such thing as 'RMS watts' or 'watts RMS' and never has been". RMS watts is meaningless, but we use that term as "an extreme shorthand" for power in watts calculated from measuring the RMS voltage.


What is the fullform of rms?

Root Mean Square value


The average value of a single sine wave of AC is 42.5amps. what is rms value?

Average Current = 0.636 * (Peak Current)so Peak Current = (Average Current)/0.636RMSCurrent = 0.707 * (Peak Current)so Peak Current = (RMS Current)/0.707Because both equations are in terms of Peak Current, we can set them equal to each other.(Average Current)/0.636 = (RMS Current)/0.707(42.5)/0.636 = (RMS Current)/0.707thenRMS Current = (0.707)(42.5)/0.636 = 47.24 ampsAnother AnswerSince the average value of a single sine wave is zero, you cannot calculate its r.m.s. value!

What is the degree f surface smoothness?

Surface smoothness is typically measured in Ra (Average Roughness) or RMS (Root Mean Square) for engineering applications. These measurements give an indication of the fine details of a surface profile and are expressed in micrometers or inches. The smaller the Ra or RMS value, the smoother the surface.

What is rms value in ac system?

The r.m.s. value of an alternating current or voltage is the value of direct current or voltage which produces the same heating effect.


Which has a higher RMS value given a sine wave a square wave and a sawtooth wave?

A square wave has the highest RMS value. RMS value is simply root-mean-square, and since the square wave spends all of its time at one or the other peak value, then the RMS value is simply the peak value. If you want to quantify the RMS value of other waveforms, then you need to take the RMS of a series of equally spaced samples. You can use calculus to do this, or, for certain waveforms, you can use Cartwright, Kenneth V. 2007. In summary, the RMS value of a square wave of peak value a is a; the RMS value of a sine wave of peak value a is a divided by square root of 2; and the RMS value of a sawtooth wave of peak value a is a divided by cube root of 3; so, in order of decreasing RMS value, you have the square wave, the sine wave, and the sawtooth wave. For more information, please see the Related Link below.


How do you measure rms value of complex waveform?

rms value is measured using voltmeter with the use of heat sensing elements.


Does a volt meter read rms?

Yes, a voltmeter typically reads the root mean square (rms) value of the voltage in an AC circuit. This is because the rms value represents the effective value of an AC signal.

Is utility voltage ie 110 VAC given as a RMS value or as a Peak value?

All AC voltages and currents are expressed as rms values, unless otherwise specified. So 120 V AC is an rms value.


Why do we need exactly one cycle data for computing the RMS value?

You don't need exactly one cycle data for computing the RMS value. It is just a convenient normalization. 1 cycle = 1Hz. RMS values can also be specified in 1 Mcycle, 1kcycle, even 2.39384kcycles. Again, 1 cycle is simply convenient. In other words, if the RMS value were specified in MHz, the RMS value will be 20*log(MHz/Hz) higher.


What is RMS Peak value and average value?

RMS is used to determine the average power in an alternating current. Since the voltage in an A/C system oscillates between + and -, the actual average is zero. The RMS or "nominal" voltage is defined as the square root of the average value of the square of the current, and is about 70.7% of the peak value.************************************************************The r.m.s. value of an alternating current or voltage is the value of direct current or voltage which produces the same heating effect.Fo a sine wave, the r.m.s. value is 0.707 x the peak value.The average value is different; for a sine wave it is 0.636 x the peak value.
