A Flux Valve is a magnetic sensory device that electrically transmits information to an aircraft's compass system regarding its orientation relative to Earth's magnetic field. This information, in the form of three separate electrical signals tied to a common return, is used to generate a visual indication to the flight crew regarding the heading of the aircraft relative to magnetic north.

How do you change a mixing valve in a faucet?

mixing valve in a faucet: ok I will assume you are refering to a shower valve, that is the only faucet w/a mixing valve: shut off the hot and cold water. cut out valve or unsweat it. clean and flux new valve, pipe and fittings(if used) sweat in new valve


Why magnet rest in north - south direction only?

The compass tries to align with the Earth's magnetic flux lines.


Why does the compass point north in the southern hemisphere?

The direction of magnetic flux or lines of force is from north polarity to south polarity, and a compass needle will always align with that direction, wherever it is used. Since the magnetic polarity of the location we call Magnetic North is a south, a compass needle will point in that direction.

Difference between flux linkage and flux leakage?

i) leakage flux is those flux which goes through the air and linkage flux is those flux whose go through the cell. ii)leakage flux is the loss at flux but linkage flu is warning flux. iii)leakage flux is cause of eddy current loss and linkage flux is case of copper loss.


What is leakage factor?

The Ratio of the total flux ( flux in iron path) to the useful flux (flux in air gap)

Difference between leakage flux and mutual flux?

when a current flow through the coil then flux produced around the coil . if the flux linked same produced coil only then the flux is said to be leakage flux. flux produced by one coil ,but linked with another coil then the flu is said to be mutual flux.

In transformer core flux depends on voltage whereas leakage flux depends on current?

In a Transformer, Core flux is the difference of primary flux and Secondary flux which are opposite to each other in direction. There difference is equal to the no load flux at all loads. So, some of primary flux passes through the core and remaining becomes leakage flux (Because Secondary flux forces it to get out of the core). Same is the case with Secondary flux. Now, flux is directly proportional to Voltage and Current. When Current increases due to increased load (and voltage remains same): Then both primary and secondary flux increase. Because both of them increase, so there difference remains same. And all remaining flux is forced out. Hence leakage flux increases with current, but Core flux remains constant. When Primary Voltage is increased: Then only primary flux increases. So difference of this new increased primary flux and previous same secondary flux increases. Hence Core flux increases with voltage, But leakage flux does not. That's how In transformer core flux depends on voltage whereas leakage flux depends on current.
