The researchers showed that they could increase the transmission efficiency of waveguides based on these structures by some 20 percent.
These higher currents produce higher losses and reduce overall transmission efficiency.
These rotators are reported to have transmission efficiencies better than 94%.
For electrical power, the energy of any fuels used to generate the electricity and the transmission efficiency must be considered.
Additionally, the transmission efficiency of monochromators and filters must be taken into account.
The transmission efficiency of the monochromator also varies depending on wavelength.
The transmission efficiency of a modern multicoated lens surface is about 99.7% or better.
A T-stop is an f-number adjusted to account for light transmission efficiency.
Light transmission efficiency is greatest if the tube is short and straight.
Hence a fluid coupling cannot achieve 100 percent power transmission efficiency.
