[ASK] me about OS/2 Warp

Sagebrush posted:


How does a higher switching frequency enable higher power?

Magnetic and paramagnetic materials have a property called saturation, where the magnetic flux no longer increases proportionally with the input current, burning the excess off as heat.

Certain materials have very different permeability and saturation points at different frequencies. Aircraft equipment used 400 hertz because the transformer to convert power is tiny compared to 60 hertz. pretty much a watts per pound situation when you get down to it.

Don't they usually keep an air rifle around in a mill to kill intruding birds, like they do in supermarkets?

I was trying to come up with something more satisfying than “magnetic saturation is a major limiting factor in the power of electric motors; higher frequency delays saturation”, but this is indeed the correct answer.
