Scroll down to related links and look at "Harmonics and overtones in comparison" or scroll down to related links and look at "Calculations of Harmonics from Fundamental Frequency". http://www.sengpielaudio.com/calculator-harmonics.htm Besides the fundamental "even harmonics" bring here the added tones: c , c, g, c, e, g , bflat, c :-) and "uneven harmonics" bring here the tones: g, e, bflat, d, f#, aflat, b ;-( Which of those both rows will be more pleasing? You can see it. Even harmonics sound more brilliant. Don't mix up harmonics with overtones! Even harmonis are uneven overtones and uneven harmonics are even overtones. Better stay with the word harmonics.

What is THD in UPS and electrical engineering?

It is Total Harmonic Distortion, and has to do with how "clean" the output power is. For those of us in the lighting and electrical world, THD refers to the Harmonic Distortion present with most electrical equipment, and more specifically now, the distortion present with electronic ballasts. THD is the measurement of the distortion created from the equipment's current draw. True resistive loads, such as an incandescent light bulb, do not have THD. Equipment containing coils and capacitors, such as motors, drives, fluorescent lighting and HID lighting, have some measure of THD.


What is meant by harmonic distortion in amplifiers?

Harmonic distortion is most simply characterised by an output which is not proportional to the input, but can be derived from the input by some function or other.Outputs which bear no relation to the input are instanced by noise, hum, motor-boating, or crackles, and are not harmonic distortion.Distorted outputs which are related to the input are in practice mostly due to a non-linearity in one or more stages, an overdrive condition, or an unbalanced phase splitting process before a push-pull output stage.Note. people have spent their whole lives on this, and books have been written. If you need to know more . . . . .

What is harmonics in a transformer?

When discussing harmonics in relation to transformers, generally you're thinking of harmonics in the current waveform - if it's a 60Hz transformer, the 2nd harmonic would be 120Hz, and is usually very high on transformer energization (referred to as inrush current). The nonlinearity of the core can result in core saturation under multiple different conditions, which tend to produce harmonic currents.


What is the verbal meaning of distortion?

Distortion refers to the alteration or misrepresentation of something, such as information, facts, or images, usually resulting in a misleading or inaccurate portrayal of the original. It can also refer to the altering of sound or visual signals, resulting in a different output compared to the original input.


Does a large scale have more distortion then a small scale?

Yes


Is distortion greater with a small scale map or a large scale map?

Map distortion is due to the fact that the earth's surface is curved but maps are flat. The more curved the surface that a map represents, the more distortion. For the same size map, one with a smaller scale encompasses a larger surface area of the earth when compared to one with a larger scale. Therefore, the one with a smaller scale will have more distortion.


What distortion pedal should you get to sound more like Panic at the Disco?

The problem is not in the distortion pedal but rather in the fact that you want to sound like Panic at the Disco.
