Open circuit may refer to: Open circuit breathing apparatus, any type of breathing apparatus where the exhaled gas is discharged to the surroundings without...

Open-circuit voltage (abbreviated as OCV or VOC) is the difference of electrical potential between two terminals of an electronic device when disconnected...

in an excessive current flowing through the circuit. The opposite of a short circuit is an open circuit, which is an infinite resistance (or very high...

The open-circuit test, or no-load test, is one of the methods used in electrical engineering to determine the no-load impedance in the excitation branch...

functional variations of scuba are in general use: open-circuit-demand, and rebreather. In open-circuit demand scuba, the diver expels exhaled breathing...

used to reduce the effects of nitrogen narcosis during deeper dives. Open-circuit scuba systems discharge the breathing gas into the environment as it...

breathing apparatus may fall into one of two categories: open-circuit or closed-circuit. The closed-circuit type, also known as a rebreather, operates by filtering...

military and scientific divers in applications where it has advantages over open circuit scuba, and surface supply of breathing gas is impracticable. The main...

terrestrial/normobaric, or high altitude/hypobaric, by breathing circuit type: open, semi-closed, or closed circuit, by gas supply type: constant flow, supply on demand...

two-terminal devices modeled as a Thévenin equivalent circuit, an equivalent emf can be measured as the open-circuit voltage between the two terminals. This emf...
