inductance

   Also found in: Dictionary/thesaurus, Acronyms, Encyclopedia, Wikipedia, Hutchinson 0.01 sec.
inductance /in·duc·tance/ (in-duk´tans) that property of a circuit whereby changing current generates an electromotive force (EMF) in the same or a neighboring circuit; the EMF is proportional to the rate of change of the current and inductance is quantitated as the ratio of these two.

This increased voltage selection, paired with enhanced magnetic inductance, provides better arc starts, smoother arc performance, creates less spatter and results in beads with flatter crowns and good wet out at the toes of the welds.
Compared to conventional face-up structures, ground inductance is reduced by more than half, thereby enabling an increase in amplification of at least 2 decibels at high frequencies of 5 gigahertz or greater.
Using a combination of a 1 pF cross capacitor that has negligible frequency dependence due to electrode surface films and a 10 pF nitrogen dielectric capacitor with a very small residual inductance as references, NIST staff have measured the frequency dependence of two 10 pF transportable fused-silica capacitors from 50 Hz to 20 kHz.
