  • The IDC server rack adopts a closed cold aisle design

    The IDC server rack adopts a closed cold aisle design

    The system simply aligns server fronts (air intakes) toward a shared cold aisle, and backs (exhausts) toward a shared hot aisle. Hot aisle and cold aisle containment are foundational concepts in data center design. In this guide, we'll break down how hot aisle and cold aisle configurations. Cold aisle containment (CAC) is a proven data center cooling strategy that creates physical barriers around cold air supply zones, preventing contamination from hot exhaust air and eliminating the energy-wasting effects of air mixing.

  • Principles of Fiber Optic Communication Networking

    Principles of Fiber Optic Communication Networking

    Fibre-optic communication involves transmitting a signal as light, converting electrical signals to optical signals at the transmitter end and reversing the process at the receiver end. Light acts as a carrier wave and can be modulated to carry information. Optical fibre is preferred over electrical cabling for long-distance transmission. Fiber-optic communication is a form of optical communication for transmitting information from one place to another by sending pulses of infrared or visible light through an optical fiber. An Optical Fiber is a cylindrical fiber of glass that is hair-thin in size or any transparent dielectric medium.

  • Wiring Principles of Household Circuit Distribution Boxes

    Wiring Principles of Household Circuit Distribution Boxes

    This document provides an overview of basic house wiring concepts. It defines key electrical terms like voltage, current, AC and DC power. A distribution board (also known as a service panel or breaker box) is a centralized collection of circuit breakers, fuses, and/or relays used to control and protect the wiring in a home. It also. Distribution Board or DB is an electricity supply system or a common enclosure that distributes the electrical power feed into subcircuits. It includes isolator, RCCB (Residual current circuit breaker) or RCD (Residual-current device) devices, protective fuses or MCB's (Miniature Circuit Breaker). An electrical panel box, also known as a breaker box or a distribution board, is a crucial component of any electrical system.


  • High Temperature Fiber Optic Sensor System Design

    High Temperature Fiber Optic Sensor System Design

    This paper reviews the sensing principle, structural design, and temperature measurement performance of fiber-optic high-temperature sensors, as well as recent significant progress in the transition of sensing solutions from glass to crystal fiber. High-temperature measurements above 1000 °C are critical in harsh environments such as aerospace, metallurgy, fossil fuel, and power production. Fiber-optic high-temperature sensors are gradually replacing traditional electronic sensors due to their small size, resistance to electromagnetic.  Fiber Optic Bragg Grating Sensors for High Temperature Applications Why Optics? Why Fiber Optics? Why Optical? Why Fiber Optics? The cladding, core, and buffer coating each have different thermal expansion coefficients. They transmit light and detect even the most minor temperature changes. Up to now, MEISU has developed various high-temperature resistant optical devices not only with regular SM fiber, but also.

  • Simulation Design Scheme for Arrayed Waveguide Gratings

    Simulation Design Scheme for Arrayed Waveguide Gratings

    This application note describes how to design, simulate and layout an Arrayed Waveguide Grating (AWG) using OlympIOs. An INTERCONNECT compact model is initially used for quick analysis. The source code provided has been developped and tested for Matlab. The AWG model leverages Photon Design's experience in both waveguide modelling and free propagation region expansion to create an ultrafast simulation and design tool for the creation of bespoke wavelength division multiplexing devices.
