Rectifiers

The Tales share the same ministry as the Ballads in that both are "rectifiers" of feelings, and cause people to empathize with the poor. ❋ Unknown (1999)

Temperance and Know Nothing "rectifiers" harassed saloon owners and their patrons, and the ensuing war of words, fisticuffs and legal challenges became known as the "Whiskey Insurrection." ❋ Unknown (2009)

The "ick" factor is much higher for a circular the TTB issued March 23 and addressed to "wine producers, rectifiers, blenders, importers and wholesalers, and others concerned." ❋ Unknown (2010)

So were the step-up transformers, the phanotron rectifiers and the 400,000-volt D.C. for ignition. ❋ Johnny Pez (2009)

It is used in selenium rectifiers, gamma radiation detection equipment, and infrared radiation detection and transmission equipment. ❋ Unknown (2008)

For instance, high purity silicon is now being used in the production of rectifiers (see Uses above). ❋ Unknown (2008)

The subtleties of postive and negative feedback are well known, which is why computers are chock full of resistors, gates, return paths and rectifiers to control the postive feedbacks. ❋ Unknown (2006)

Products include semiconductor transistors, rectifiers and diodes. ❋ Unknown (2006)

They're why, for example, p-n junctions can act as rectifiers and (very important) as transistors. ❋ Unknown (2005)

In 1961, I read my candidate degree thesis that had been mainly devoted to working out and investigating of power germanium and partially silicon rectifiers. ❋ Unknown (2001)

In subsequent years, our team of researchers at the Physico-Technical institute expanded considerably and in a very short time the first Soviet germanium power rectifiers were created alongside with germanium photodiodes and silicon also were being carried out then. ❋ Unknown (2001)

That required a perfectly new technology and in addition to - another construction of germanium rectifiers, which had been done in a record short space of time. ❋ Unknown (2001)

The Han administration and recommendation system were both adopted by Cao Cao with emendations when he established the Nine Ranks System by which local capable men (senior rectifiers) graded potential candidates for bureaucratic appointment. ❋ Unknown (2001)

Senior rectifiers hailed from local great families and strengthened the authority of the latter. ❋ Unknown (2001)

Western Cape communications manager Tia Hugo said the lines were unable to cope with all the calls due to problems with two rectifiers. ❋ Unknown (1995)

With the spread of solid state technology in the early 1980s, solid state rectifiers replaced rotating generators as the source of direct current. ❋ Kim B. Clark (1993)

Favourable and economical speed setting results from changing the voltage by means of controlled rectifiers (thyratrons or thyristors). ❋ Hans-Friedrich Hoyer (1991)

There are virtually no losses with these rectifiers. ❋ Hans-Friedrich Hoyer (1991)

In normal operation the accumulators are being charged by the mains via charging rectifiers. ❋ Werner Boschitsch (1991)
