There should always be some type of bending loss in a fiber optic cable, whether it's a SMF or MMF cable. The reason for a bend loss being higher in SMF than MMF is that the core diameter of a SMF fiber can be significantly smaller than the core diameter of a MMF fiber, thus more of the light traveling down the SMF cable will hit the cladding at angles above the TIR angle, and more power will be lost.

Can multimode and singlemode fiber optic cable be used together?

Not really. These are two different types of fiber optic cable and are used for different reasons. In other words, you can't mix SMF and MMF fiber in the same cable, but they could be used in separate cables in the same network (although it isn't likely) MMF fiber is used for short haul interconnects, and SMF fiber is typically used for longer distances,

Why it is difficult to calculate mmf of air gap of a slotted machine?

Calculating the magnetomotive force (MMF) of the air gap in a slotted machine is challenging due to the complex geometry and the presence of slots, which disrupt the uniform magnetic field. The air gap's magnetic path is not uniform; variations in slot depth and width create non-linearities in the magnetic circuit. Additionally, the fringing effect at the edges of the slots further complicates calculations, as it alters the effective area and permeability of the air gap. These factors make it necessary to use more advanced numerical methods or finite element analysis for accurate MMF calculations.

What is the difference between emf and mmf?

emf is electromotive force mmf is magnetic motive force emf drives electon where as mmf drives magnetic field


What is Static mmf?

Static magnetomotive force (MMF) refers to the magnetic potential created by a coil or winding when a steady electric current flows through it, resulting in a constant magnetic field. It is calculated as the product of the current passing through the coil and the number of turns in the coil (MMF = N * I, where N is the number of turns and I is the current). Static MMF is crucial in understanding magnetic circuits and is fundamental in the design of transformers, inductors, and other electromagnetic devices. Unlike dynamic MMF, static MMF does not account for time-varying fields or currents.


Do you lose power if your computer is on power saving mode?

Yes, a small amount. If you leave it on, there will be a bigger power loss, if you turn it off or hibernate it,there will be no power loss. -- Check out my tech forum! http://www.chiller2004.netai.net/SMF/
