Tehonhäviö
Tehonhäviö, a Finnish term often translated as "power loss" or "energy loss," refers to the unintended reduction of energy or power in a system. This phenomenon can occur in various contexts, including electrical, mechanical, and thermal systems. In electrical engineering, tehonhäviö can manifest as resistive losses in conductors, core losses in transformers, or dielectric losses in capacitors. These losses convert electrical energy into heat, reducing the efficiency of power transmission and utilization.
In mechanical systems, tehonhäviö is often associated with friction. Moving parts in machinery experience frictional forces
Thermal systems also experience tehonhäviö, primarily through heat transfer to the surroundings. For instance, insulated pipes
