Record 4 2015-02-26

English

Subject field(s)
  • Audio Technology
  • Electrical Measuring Equipment
DEF

The value of frequency in accordance with which the relevant performance of the meter is fixed.

CONT

[In tabulating a frequency-response measurement, inspection] of the attenuator loss indicates that at frequencies above 6000 Hz, the gain of the amplifier must fall off, because less attenuator loss is required to maintain a constant level at the receive meter. At the low frequencies, the attenuator gain must rise... Keeping the above facts in mind, the attenuator loss may now be converted to a reference frequency to show the rise and fall of the frequency characteristic above and below the reference frequency.

French

Domaine(s)
  • Électroacoustique
  • Appareils de mesures (Électricité)
DEF

Fréquence prise comme fréquence de base.

CONT

Cette fréquence doit être choisie parmi les fréquences normales pour les mesures acoustiques. Dans le cas des amplificateurs de puissance ou des préamplificateurs, on prend [normalement] la fréquence de 1000 Hz comme fréquence de référence [...]

In response to the Commission's questions about the noted feeder inspection frequency in relation to the estimated short remaining life of some feeders, OPG [Ontario Power Generation] stated that, based on current information and erosion controls now in place, only a few of the feeder pipes will likely require replacement in the next 4 to 6 years.

Subject field(s)
  • Metal Joining Processes - Various
CONT

Acoustic microscopy is the term applied to high resolution, high frequency ultrasonic inspection techniques which produce images of features beneath the surface of a sample. Because ultrasonic energy requires continuity of materials to propagate, internal defects such as voids, delaminations and cracks interfere with the transmission and/or reflection of ultrasound signals. Since air is a very poor conductor of ultrasound, gaps within or between samples are easily visualized by the localized changes in the ultrasound.
