Deutsch: Widerstand / Português: Resistance / Français: Rêsistance

In the industrial and industry context, "resistance" refers to the opposition or hindrance to the flow of electrical current, heat, or fluid through a material or substance. Resistance is a fundamental property of many materials and can have important implications for the performance, safety, and efficiency of industrial and manufacturing operations.

Examples of resistance in the industrial context include:

  1. Electrical resistance, the hindrance to the flow of electrical current through a conductor, such as a wire or circuit board.
  2. Thermal resistance, the hindrance to the flow of heat through a material, such as insulation or a heat sink.
  3. Fluid resistance, the hindrance to the flow of a fluid, such as a gas or liquid, through a pipe or channel.
  4. Mechanical resistance, the hindrance to the movement of an object or material, such as friction or stiffness.
  5. Chemical resistance, the hindrance to the chemical reaction of a material, such as corrosion resistance or oxidation resistance.
