In [1], a triac power controller is described, which allows not only to regulate, but also to stabilize the output voltage. This article describes a simpler circuit that allows you to regulate and stabilize the voltage (and hence the power) at a constant load. This circuit allows you to maintain the output voltage with an accuracy of 5% when the input voltage changes by 50%.

The controller circuit is shown in the figure.

Triac stabilized power controller

The power controller contains a triac VS1, a time (phase) delay unit, a compensating circuit and a power source. With the help of the compensating circuit R8C2, a value proportional to the supply voltage is added to the voltage of the zener diode VD3. This amount is the interbase voltage of the transistor VT1. Then a decrease in the supply voltage reduces the supply voltage of the transistor VT1 and causes a decrease in the time delay, and the output voltage will not change. The lower limit of stabilization is reached at the moment when the supply voltage is equal to the specified output.

Adjustment. It is necessary to connect the regulator to the network with the load through an autotransformer and turn on the voltmeter in parallel with the load. By changing the voltage at the input of the power regulator, the variable resistor R8 achieves the minimum voltage at the load.

Capacitor C1 type K73-17 or K73-11, C2 type K50-16. Transformer T1 on the Sh5Ch6 core, the primary winding is 40 turns, and the secondary winding is 50 turns of PEL-0,2 wire. When setting up, it is necessary to observe safety measures, since the elements of the power regulator are galvanically connected to the network.

Machine for thinning flowers in gardens 02.05.2024

In modern agriculture, technological progress is developing aimed at increasing the efficiency of plant care processes. The innovative Florix flower thinning machine was presented in Italy, designed to optimize the harvesting stage. This tool is equipped with mobile arms, allowing it to be easily adapted to the needs of the garden. The operator can adjust the speed of the thin wires by controlling them from the tractor cab using a joystick. This approach significantly increases the efficiency of the flower thinning process, providing the possibility of individual adjustment to the specific conditions of the garden, as well as the variety and type of fruit grown in it. After testing the Florix machine for two years on various types of fruit, the results were very encouraging. Farmers such as Filiberto Montanari, who has used a Florix machine for several years, have reported a significant reduction in the time and labor required to thin flowers. ... >>

Advanced Infrared Microscope 02.05.2024

Microscopes play an important role in scientific research, allowing scientists to delve into structures and processes invisible to the eye. However, various microscopy methods have their limitations, and among them was the limitation of resolution when using the infrared range. But the latest achievements of Japanese researchers from the University of Tokyo open up new prospects for studying the microworld. Scientists from the University of Tokyo have unveiled a new microscope that will revolutionize the capabilities of infrared microscopy. This advanced instrument allows you to see the internal structures of living bacteria with amazing clarity on the nanometer scale. Typically, mid-infrared microscopes are limited by low resolution, but the latest development from Japanese researchers overcomes these limitations. According to scientists, the developed microscope allows creating images with a resolution of up to 120 nanometers, which is 30 times higher than the resolution of traditional microscopes. ... >>

Air trap for insects 01.05.2024

Agriculture is one of the key sectors of the economy, and pest control is an integral part of this process. A team of scientists from the Indian Council of Agricultural Research-Central Potato Research Institute (ICAR-CPRI), Shimla, has come up with an innovative solution to this problem - a wind-powered insect air trap. This device addresses the shortcomings of traditional pest control methods by providing real-time insect population data. The trap is powered entirely by wind energy, making it an environmentally friendly solution that requires no power. Its unique design allows monitoring of both harmful and beneficial insects, providing a complete overview of the population in any agricultural area. “By assessing target pests at the right time, we can take necessary measures to control both pests and diseases,” says Kapil ... >>

Robotic dogs will fly to Mars 20.12.2020

NASA unveiled the four-legged robot Au-Spot with artificial intelligence - a modified version of the Spot robot from Boston Dynamics.

Scientists are equipping four-legged animal-simulating robots with artificial intelligence (AI) and a suite of sensory equipment to help them autonomously navigate the Red Planet.

It is assumed that robotic dogs will be able to maneuver better than the Spirit, Opportunity, Curiosity and Perseverance rovers.

The maneuverability and stability of the new robots are combined with sensors that allow them to avoid obstacles, choose between multiple paths, and build virtual maps of buried tunnels and caves for home base operators.

Traditional rovers are limited to mostly flat surfaces, but many scientifically interesting regions of Mars are located in rugged terrain or underground. Robotic dogs are well suited for such tasks - even if they fall, they can get up again.

The Martian dogs will be about 12 times lighter than today's rovers and will be able to travel much faster, reaching a normal walking speed of 5 km/h during testing. The researchers reported that the Curiosity rover is moving on the surface of Mars at a speed of about 0,14 km/h.

Au-Spot scans its surroundings with a variety of sensors that are processed by an onboard computer, allowing the Martian Dog to display what is around him in 3D.
