The animation illustrates how random and directed movements of particles lead to different spatial distributions. A random movement is called diffusion, a directed movement is called drift. Drift and diffusion are crucial for understanding solar cells. Free charge carriers are generated in a semiconductor material when it is exposed to light. These charge carriers move […]

HD Animation: RLC circuits
The following animation illustrates how an RLC circuit works. RLC circuits offer a wide range of possible applications in the field of signal processing. The letters “RLC” also refer to the three basic electrical elements: Resistance (R), Inductance (L) and Capacitance (C). Also R, L, C, LC, RC and RL circuits can be configured in […]

Animation: Electrical induction 1 (App)
The following interactive app explains the principle of electromagnetic induction. The conductor can be moved with the mouse (or your finger on a touchscreen). The animation shows conductive material, that you can moved with your mouse. Depending on the direction of movement of the conductor, the induced electric current will flow in a different direction. […]
HD Animation: Electromagnetic induction through rotation
The animation shows how an electrical voltage can be generated via a rotational movement. An electrical conductor is shown which is exposed to a rotating magnetic field. An electric field is created inside the conductor. Blue spheres indicate the movement of electrons. Note on use As with all animations, the windows can be enlarged or […]
Animation: Electrical induction 2
The interactive animation illustrates the principle of electromagnetic induction using the example of a rotating conductor loop. The 3D model can be rotated interactively. You can zoom in and out the rectangles in the animation with a mouse click. In the following screenshot only the 3D model is shown. The animation shows a conductor loop […]
HD Animation: Electromagnetic induction 1
The interactive animation provides an introduction to the law of electromagnetic induction. A metal cylinder is shown that can be moved interactively through a magnetic field. Inside the metal cylinder, blue beads indicate the electric current. Note on use As with all animations, the windows can be enlarged or reduced by clicking on them. After […]
HD Animation: Forces on the rotor of a wind turbine
The interactive animation shows the forces that act on the rotor of a wind turbine (and can be visualised in the rotor plane). These forces must be taken into account when designing wind turbines. The amount of tangential force can be varied using a controller. The tangential force results from the lift force that is […]
