polyimide
Electrical equipment; Power supplies
A polymer often used for spacecraft thermal control because of its yellow color. Very thermally stable, this polymer is often also used for flexible solar array blankets. Kapton® ...
cell
Electrical equipment; Power supplies
A single unit capable of serving as a direct current (DC) voltage source by transfer of ions in the course of a chemical reaction.
potential
Electrical equipment; Power supplies
The work per unit charge required to bring any charge to the point from an infinite distance.
polymerize
Electrical equipment; Power supplies
To unite chemically two or more monomers or polymers of the same kind to form a molecule with higher molecular weight.
primary arc
Electrical equipment; Power supplies
Trigger arc. An initial electrical discharge that may or may not trigger another type of discharge.
resistance
Electrical equipment; Power supplies
Property of a conductor that determines the current produced by a given difference of potential. The ohm is the practical unit of resistance.
dielectric constant (relative permittivity)
Electrical equipment; Power supplies
Property of a dielectric that determines the electrostatic energy stored per unit volume for unit potential gradient.
