Pure resistance is an energy storage element

What is a pure resistance circuit?

The pure resistance circuit is a circuit that has only resistors except for the power supply; or even have the inductors and capacitors, their impact on the circuit is very small thus can be ignored. Resistors convert all the energy obtained from the power supply into internal energy (thermal energy).

What is the difference between pure resistance and non-pure resistance?

Pure resistance circuit can only convert into heat energy, while non-pure resistance circuit can convert other energy besides heat energy, such as wind energy, optical energy, etc. The common seen equipment--hair dryers, for example, convert electricity into wind and heat to dry out hair.

What is a multiple energy-storage elements converter?

Both groups converters consist of multiple energy-storage elements: two elements, three elements, or four elements. These energy-storage elements are passive parts: inductors and capacitors. They can be connected in series or parallel in various methods. In full statistics, the circuits of the multiple energy-storage elements converters are:

What is multiple energy-storage elements resonant power converter (X-element RPC)?

Multiple energy-storage elements resonant power converters (x-Element RPC) are the sixth-generation converters. According to the transferring, power becomes higher and higher, traditional methods are hardly satisfied to deliver large power from source to final actuators with high efficiency.

What are the two energy storage mechanical elements?

The two energy storage mechanical elements can have initial conditions that need to be taken into account in the analysis. A mass can have an initial velocity, which will clearly produce a force, and a spring can have a nonzero rest length, which also produces a force.

What are the characteristics of high energy storage performance?

Excellent energy storage performance needs to include having characteristics such as high voltage resistance, large polarization with low hysteresis, etc. (Fig. 1 a). Therefore, a combination of high Pm and Eb, low Pr is required to achieve high energy performance.
