Q = (ω₀*E_max)/(P_avg)
This formula uses 4 Variables

Variables Used

Quality Factor - Quality Factor is a dimensionless parameter that describes how underdamped an oscillator or resonator is.
Angular Frequency - (Measured in Radian per Second) - Angular Frequency is a steadily recurring phenomenon expressed in radians per second.
Maximum Stored Energy - (Measured in Joule) - Maximum Stored Energy refers to significant amounts of potential energy accumulated and confined within a medium, which can have damaging environmental impacts if released suddenly.
Average Power Loss - (Measured in Watt) - Average Power Loss are wasteful energy caused by external factors or internal factors, and energy dissipated in the system.

STEP 1: Convert Input(s) to Base Unit

Angular Frequency: 5.75 Radian per Second --> 5.75 Radian per Second No Conversion Required

What types of cavities are used for Q factor calculations?

There are two classes of cavities for Q factor calculations, low Q cavities and high Q cavities. A system with low quality factor (Q < 1⁄2) is said to be overdamped. Such a system doesn't oscillate at all, but when displaced from its equilibrium steady-state output it returns to it by exponential decay, approaching the steady state value asymptotically. A system with high quality factor (Q > 1⁄2) is said to be underdamped. Underdamped systems combine oscillation at a specific frequency with a decay of the amplitude of the signal.

How to Calculate Quality Factor?

Quality Factor calculator uses Quality Factor = (Angular Frequency*Maximum Stored Energy)/(Average Power Loss) to calculate the Quality Factor, Quality Factor is a dimensionless parameter that describes how underdamped an oscillator or resonator is. In summary, it is the ratio of the peak energy stored in the resonator during a period of oscillation to the energy lost per radian of the period or cycle. Quality Factor is denoted by Q symbol.

How to calculate Quality Factor using this online calculator? To use this online calculator for Quality Factor, enter Angular Frequency (ω₀), Maximum Stored Energy (E_max) & Average Power Loss (P_avg) and hit the calculate button. Here is how the Quality Factor calculation can be explained with given input values -> 6.9 = (5.75*0.48)/(0.4).

FAQ

What is Quality Factor?

Quality Factor is a dimensionless parameter that describes how underdamped an oscillator or resonator is. In summary, it is the ratio of the peak energy stored in the resonator during a period of oscillation to the energy lost per radian of the period or cycle and is represented as Q = (ω₀*E_max)/(P_avg) or Quality Factor = (Angular Frequency*Maximum Stored Energy)/(Average Power Loss). Angular Frequency is a steadily recurring phenomenon expressed in radians per second, Maximum Stored Energy refers to significant amounts of potential energy accumulated and confined within a medium, which can have damaging environmental impacts if released suddenly & Average Power Loss are wasteful energy caused by external factors or internal factors, and energy dissipated in the system.

How to calculate Quality Factor?
