Toroidal in a sentence

A large toroidal transformer ensures a smooth and steady supply of electrical current for the Uniti Atom.

A drawback of toroidal transformer construction is the higher labor cost of winding.

Although they also have a toroidal magnetic field topology, stellarators are distinct from tokamaks in that they are not azimuthally symmetric.

Among these peoples turquoise was used in mosaic inlay, in sculptural works, and was fashioned into toroidal beads and freeform pendants.

A more sophisticated trick is to consider the left and right edges of the field to be stitched together, and the top and bottom edges also, yielding a toroidal array.

A multidimensional ring has a toroidal topology, for instance.

As a consequence, toroidal transformers rated more than a few kVA are uncommon.

Because of their symmetry, toroidal cores allow a minimum of the magnetic flux to escape outside the core (called leakage flux ), so they radiate less electromagnetic interference than other shapes.

Computer science Topological data analysis uses techniques from algebraic topology to determine the large scale structure of a set (for instance, determining if a cloud of points is spherical or toroidal ).

Glider gun within a toroidal array.

Hopf coordinates The Hopf fibration can be visualized using a stereographic projection of ) direction, represented by the blue arrow, although the terms poloidal and toroidal are arbitrary in this flat torus case.

However, in certain coordinate systems, such as polar-toroidal coordinates (common in plasma physics), using the notation ∇ × F will yield an incorrect result.

However, this was less efficient than the now common direct injection in which initiation of combustion takes place in a depression (often toroidal ) in the crown of the piston.

In both designs, the magnetic flux linking the primary and secondary windings traveled almost entirely within the confines of the iron core, with no intentional path through air (see Toroidal cores below).

It is almost toroidal in shape, extending from an altitude of about three to ten Earth radii (R E ) or convert above the Earth's surface.

More generally, the genus of a graph is the minimum genus of a two-dimensional surface into which the graph may be embedded; planar graphs have genus zero and nonplanar toroidal graphs have genus one.

Online calculator calculates the inductance of conventional and toroidal coils using formulas 3, 4, 5, and 6, above.

Researchers discovered that a simple toroidal field, in which the magnetic field lines run in circles around an axis of symmetry, confines a plasma hardly better than no field at all.

Sakharov then tested a MK-driven "plasma cannon" where a small aluminum ring was vaporized by huge eddy currents into a stable, self-confined toroidal plasmoid and was accelerated to 100 km/s.

Shown is the toroidal field and the coils (blue) that produce it, the plasma current (red) and the poloidal field produced by it, and the resulting twisted field when these are overlaid.
