Minimum CPC CSA Adiabatic Check

Factor Valuek
min. CSAmm2
Waiting to check the minimum CSA of the CPC from the adiabatic check against your chosen CPC CSA...
Your selected CPC CSA is suitable for this circuit. It is greater than CSA required from result of the adiabatic check.

Result

The selected CPC CSA is NOT suitable for this circuit. It is less than CSA required from result of the adiabatic check.
