What is the purpose of a wattle on a rooster?
Temperature regulator
What is the purpose of a regulator?
The purpose of a regulator is to regulate something, to keep a value at a set level. A thermostat is a temperature regulator. You set it to a certain value and then the thermostat will control the heat source so that the temperature stays at the set value.
What is the main regulator of carbon dioxide?
The temperature of our oceans.
What is the definition or definitions of a regulator?
A regulator controls voltage or pressure or temperature or some other metric to keep it within certain parameters or limits.
Why zener diode is used as voltage regulator?
A: At one time it was used for a regulator because in the reverse voltage breakdown it has the characteristic of keeping the voltage constant as voltage is increased. IT has being replaced by many three terminal regulator with much better regulation and temperature coefficient
Why you turn ON the temperature regulator of the CCD before taking images or spectrum?
Due to the way CCD's work the higher the temperature the more random noise it will collect in an image. By reducing its temperature it increase the accuracy of an image.
How to install grand am regulator?
Which regulator and what year? You have a window regulator, voltage regulator, fuel pressure regulator to name a few.
Why is your gas regulator freezing?
It is normal for the regulator to get cold as the liquid propane turns to gas. If the pressure drop is great enough and the volume is high enough (which is to say, you are doing some serious barbecuing, the temperature can drop below freezing. At that temperature, the moisture in the air will form frost. If this creates some sort of a problem, you can soak a towel in hot water and lay it on the regulator.

Do 5v regulators always get hot?
There are several factors that affect the heat output of a voltage regulator. A linear regulator such as a 7805 series will pass the same amount of current as the load draws. The regulator will also have a certain voltage across it and can be calculated by subtracting the output voltage (5V in this case) from the source voltage. The source voltage might be anywhere from 7 volts up to as much as 30 volts. The heat generated in the regulator can be calculated using the power equation, power = current x voltage. As stated above, the current is dependant on the load. As the current increases, so the power dissipated in the regulator increases. Similarly, as the source voltage increases, so does the power dissipated by the regulator. The regulator will always show a temperature rise but how hot it gets depends on how effectively the heat is drawn away from the regulator. If the regulator is mounted on an effective heat sink, it can dissipate large amounts of heat without becoming hot. Without a heatsink, the same regulator in the same situation will become far hotter. All regulators have certain limits for power dissipation and temperature. The data sheet will have information on the limits and they should always be noted during a design phase.
Where is the regulator on a 1978 dodgetruck?
Which regulator?
How do you change the regulator of a valeo alternator?
The regulator can be found on the top of the alternator. Remove the wiring harness from the regulator. Remove the retaining screws from the regulator. Reverse the process to install the new regulator.
