resistance wire

For heating, resistance wire must be stable in air when hot.

A resistance wire is used in the primary circuit.

The secondary is made of resistance wire, so there is no separate load.

When used as a heating element, resistance wire is usually wound into coils.

Making the gauze with electrical resistance wire causes it to glow red when a sufficiently large current is passed.

Resistance wire is a type of high resistance electrical wire.

One type of heat source is electricity, typically heating ribbons made of high resistance wire.

He called this device a "coiled resistance wire rheostat".

The conduction dolorimeter has a resistance wire that has a constant heat flow.

Other materials used include resistance wire, carbon particles in plastic, and a ceramic/metal mixture called cermet.

Resistance wire: may be wire or ribbon, straight or coiled.

Chrome-nickel alloy, nichrome as it is called, is a resistance wire.

Though the Simmons was the first to invent the resistance wire strain gauge, both men are credited with the discovery and share the original patent.

Nichrome is a non-magnetic alloy of nickel, chromium, and often iron, usually used as a resistance wire.

The invention of nichrome alloy for resistance wires improved the cost and durability of heating elements.

In thermocouple and hot-wire meters the current to be measured passes through a straight piece of resistance wire and heats it up.

If you now hook the disconnected terminals together with a zero resistance wire, those terminals will be at the same potential (call it 0 volts).

He was looking at the cooking vat; it was a simple-minded bit of construction, a spiral of resistance wire around a ceramic core.

Thus, the modern ribbon on the Persephone replaces the nickel-chrome resistance wire used as a variable resistor to control the pitch of the trautonium.

A resistance wire is laid along the length of a metre rule and contact with the wire is made through a galvanometer by a slider.

Resistance wire is wire with higher than normal resistivity, often used for heating elements or for making wire-wound resistors.

The plastic mat, made of heat-resistant polyethylene, contains looped resistance wire that carries an electrical charge, transferring heat to anything it touches.

Application for resistance wire includes resistors, heating elements, electric heaters, electric ovens, toasters, and many more.

An unknown DC voltage, in series with the galvanometer, is then connected to the sliding wiper, across a variable-length section R of the resistance wire.
