if memery serves me it is .636 of rms 120ac or peak which is 170vac. can't rember for sure . But its not possible for it to be greater than peak. let me know how well your conversion works out. Robby [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: I am looking at WVO fueled diesel powered home/shop co-generation

Actually, he is likely thinking the RMS calculation of which 120VAC RMS would be 120 x 1.414 = Peak voltage and Peak voltage x .707 to get RMS. You would be much closer using the 120 x .707 to get a well filtered DC voltage. -Original Message- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL

E peak of a sine wave is 1.414 of the RMS value. The conduction angle becomes too severe as you exceed 1.2 RMS Even 1.2 is pushing it. Kirk -Original Message- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Saturday, February 08, 2003 2:33 PM To: biofuel@yahoogroups.com Subject:
