Can I input single phase power to a VFD and have it output 3 phase if I work on the assumption that it'll be basically 50% good? I won't fry any diodes if I keep it running motors under half its rated power? Pretty sure. Srs q if you're knowing.

Previews are terrible. Trying way too hard. No desire to watch. Looks like written for simpletons.

I've been eating a lot of kale lately. I buy the salad bag pictured below. My question is my wife said that eating kale can increase your risk of kidney stones. I've had one before and never want to do it again. Do you have any tips for eating kale and keeping the risk of kidney stones as low as possible? I already drink lots of water.

Fuck man. I bet. Srs, look at your water hardness level. I was reading about reverse osmosis filtration and there or a link talked about the flip side, high mineralization of tap water and cock rocks. Seems like a pretty direct connect. It was strictly a research thing. I don't just spend all day reading about cocks, you understand.

I can't believe how many hours I've wasted there on purpose, and by accident.

I tried to get into Empire. Terrence Howard is one of my favorite actors.
too much like Glee I guess, the musical arrangements annoy the piss out of me.

.
For fans of "The Wire", this fellow - , has uploaded all of "The Corner". It's the middle of David Simon's Baltimore trio (Homicide, The Corner, and The Wire). It's an interesting watch, between Homicide and this one, you can see the molding of what would become The Wire.
I don't think any of the streaming services carried it after HBO ran it. An edited version was played on BET for a bit, but it's sorta faded from memory for some folks.

I heard it was foxs way of getting their foot in the black community. Any truth to this? Are they trying to hard?
-
Fox has been in the lack community since show like NY Undercover, Martin and Living Single. As for Empire, my wife and have been watching it and like it so far. Taraji Henson in lingerie makes any show better.
-
White people being able to watch an all black TV series/movie died with Martin and Friday.
Now, it just seems pathetic.

It depend on the show. The Wire, Treme, etc.... were majority black and excellent. NY Undercover was pretty good, and I have a soft spot for Living Single.
It's when they shoehorn or soft peddle things in regards to race that things really go bad. Haven't seen Empire, but this thread has me curious.

Why do you guys have channels Starz Black and BET? Sometimes I feel that black people segregate themselves.
Smart People like Morgan Freeman do not want specific months, or specific channels "set aside" for them.
You would never hear the end of it, if the WET (not a porn channel, white entertainment t.v.) network ever came out.

Yes you can use a vfd as a phase converter. The output will be 3 phase 240 V

BET comes as standard, with cable around here. I don't mind it, They were pretty good at picking re-runs and B-movies.

Its the concept that bothers me.
Is it too far to suggest that it is reverse racism?

Ah, there are big things to be annoyed about. I sort of understand why they want their own station, especially when it was first developed in the early 80's. And it's lost most, if not all of any militancy it once had. I don't find it more offensive than the 20+ spanish stations, or the 2 Polish, or the 5+ plus Asian ones.

No shit. I wasnt implying that only black people have access to those networks.
I just think its time to have a name change. Why do they have to preface it with black?
Its makes wholesome white folk embarrassed to watch.
Mom: what are you watching dear?
Me: BET mom
Mom: is that some type of gameshow network?
Me: No mom, its black entertainment television.
Mom: (blank stare)

I tried to watch it but couldn't get into it, to much monkey business ;D

They have a show called Blackish on one of the main networks. How did that pass the screen test?

From the previews, which I know don't say much, it reminded me of a gay hustle and flow. Maybe that's why Goodrum likes it

Speaking of Goodrum, I wonder why LOGO did not just call the network GAY instead? Would be the same concept as BET in my opinion.

don't tell wiggs cause apparently they built a bunch of fucking pyramids and maintained an advanced civilization like 10,000,000 years ago but haven't done shit since, must have hit a evolutional slump.

I haven't looked at the Popular Mechanics/Science stuff before. Just never got around to googling it up. Thanks for the links. Good to know they've got it all archived.
Yep, Tubalcain is wonderfully curmudgeonly! Been meaning to get back to Ox some more. Don't know him well but looks like a very skilled dude. Also spent many an hour in awe of Keith Fenner. One of these days I'll figure out how to download YouTube vids and save them. I hate to think of this stuff blinking out of existence.
Yes you can use a vfd as a phase converter. The output will be 3 phase 240 V
Right on, Dude. I gambled with a $100 bid at auction yesterday and came home with a 22kw rated unit. Literature advised 3 phase input required, so I figured at the very least I'd have a nice controller between the generator and milling machine, but was hopeful it would open doors for me with single phase domestic supply.
If you wanted to be able to run it off domestic supply or 3-ph generator (I don't even know what the mill out there will draw but it's going to be at least 10 kw, so I figure I might have to feed that with the genny), would you just put a 3 phase male plug on the VFD and then adapt a single phase extension cord with a 3 phase female plug, then swap to the generator's 3 phase cord when needed?
The manual is talking about the importance of grounding, earth leakage, etc. I don't plan to remain clueless but I am at the moment so want to make sure grounding needs would be accommodated with a single phase cord's ground. Also not sure if a male plug on the VFD would be really dumb if capacitors can discharge back through the supply plug and kill me. I could opt to just hardwire, forget about putting the generator through the VFD (or this particular VFD), if plugging in invites disaster.

Assuming you have a 230v 3 phase 22kw vfd if you supplied it with 230 single phase you would de-rate the power by half. This would work ok at lower freq. Once you go higher (to speed the motor) the ripple voltage will be too high on the DC bus due to caps discharging faster than they can recharge to make maximum output possible, however you should still get about 90% of the max output frequency wise. If you are pla.ning to supply 120v your 230v unit would not work for you.

Black people need to get their own media, their own business sector, and a code of conduct.
They never will.

I'm in Aus so single phase input would be 230v. 3ph is 415v here so I'm hoping that's what will come out the other side. The sticker on the unit says both input & output are 230v-480v so maybe it's something I program. Obvious newb.
I got the rating from a chart for different models (mine's a PDL electronics/Schneider Electric Microdrive Elite ME-46, 27kg weight) giving 22kw at 415v. Stay away from the top 10% on the speed range?
PS - Except for the big mill most of my equipment is low draw. 2 lathes and a small mill ranging from 1.5HP-5HP.

The argument goes that most of TV is, by default, white entertainment TV.
-

I wouldn't say that. I've heard a similar argument when people discuss historically black colleges and universities (HBCUs).
-

The argument is problematic. They are by default white but not intentionally white. They are simply marketing to the largest demographic for monetary not racial reasons. So you have a difference of intent and design.
These default white networks are experiencing pressure to include minorities while race based networks like BET are not. BET is intentionally exclusionary and allowed and even encouraged to be so. NBC is not intentionally exclusionary and is pressured to be inclusive.

is a 30 something having this discussion with his mother, unless he lived with her?

It was a joke scenario. One Im sure that has played out in countless white suburban homes.
We will never truely be equals until we stop focusing on black and white.

I wouldn't say stay away from the top end frequency wise but you would definitely want to monitor your motors temperature near the upper end. With the voltage being somewhat unstable the motor will draw more current at the upper frequency. This in turn creates a lot of heat which is your motors enemy. As far as the vfd you would have to program the desired output in its parameter set. Good luck, let me know how you make out.

Thanks for the advice, Dude. I can't decide if this thing will transform or not, so will just have to see and possibly screw with wye/delta configurations if it doesn't.
Will definitely keep an eye on motor temps. Got a 3 speed one from the 40s original to the lathe that I don't want to fuck up.
