Light fog
The presence of fog density on a completed radiograph can arise from various factors. It may occur when the darkroom lacks lightproof conditions, when film holders exhibit cracks, when the power of the light bulb is excessively high, when the safelight filter is cracked, when an incorrect safelight series is employed, when the film is…

Laminated silicon steel plates
The iron core of a transformer is constructed by using silicon steel plates that are insulated from each other with a layer of varnish. This lamination process is implemented to minimize the occurrence of eddy currents. The core is made up of multiple thin plates of silicon steel that are stacked together, with each plate…

Laminated core
The core material of transformers is constructed using laminated layers to reduce the effects of eddy currents. By utilizing this layered design, the transformer’s core is made up of thin, insulated sheets that are stacked together. This laminated structure helps to minimize the circulation of eddy currents within the core material. Eddy currents are induced…
