Ground loop

[aviation] In aviation, a ground loop is a rapid rotation of a fixed-wing aircraft in the horizontal plane while on the ground. Aerodynamic forces may cause the advancing wing to rise, which may then cause the other wingtip to touch the ground. In severe cases (particularly if the ground surface is soft), the inside wing can dig in, causing...

Ground loop

[electricity] Ground loops are a major cause of noise, hum, and interference in audio, video, and computer systems. They can also create an electric shock hazard, since ostensibly `grounded` parts of the equipment, which are often accessible to users, are not at ground potential. == Description == A ground loop is a system that connects cir...

ground loop

• An undesirable feedback condition caused by two or more circuits sharing a common electrical line, usually a grounded conductor. • In a geothermal heat pump system, a series of fluid-filled plastic pipes buried in the shallow ground, or placed in a body of water, near a building. The ...

Ground loop

(Also known as an Earth Loop) An unwanted interference in the copper electrical signal transmissions with shielded cable, which is a result of ground currents when the system has more than one ground point. For example, in CCTV, when we have a different earthing resistance at the camera end to that at the switcher or monitor end. It must NEVER be c...

ground loop

Usually defined as a rapid rotation of a fixed-wing aircraft in the horizontal plane while on the ground. In powered aircraft, the ground loop phenomenon is predominantly associated with aircraft that have conventional landing gear and is typically blamed on the center of gravity being positioned behind the main wheels.

Ground Loop

In geothermal heat pump systems, a series of fluid-filled plastic pipes buried in the shallow ground, or placed in a body of water, near a building. The fluid within the pipes is used to transfer heat between the building and the shallow ground (or water) in order to heat and cool the building.
