Aerospace | 1. In atmospheric optics, one of several points in the sky for which the degree of polarization of diffuse sky radiation is zero. In an ideal Rayleigh atmosphere there would be just two such points, the solar point and the antisolar point. Because of effects of multiple scattering and because of the action of scattering particles larger than molecules, the actual atmosphere is typically found to have quite different neutral points. In the vertical plane containing the observer's zenith and the sun, three neutral points are commonly found: the Arago point, the Babinet point, and the Brewster point. 2. In aircraft, that location of the center of gravity at which the aircraft would exhibit neutral aerodynamic stability.3. = Lagrangian point. (references) |

Mining | A. A neutral point in a wye-connected alternating-current power system means the connection point of transformer or generator windings from which the voltage to ground is nominally zero, and which is the point generally used for system grounding. b. In titration, the point at which hydrogen ions and hydroxyls are approx. balanced, each at about 1 times 10-7 molar. Since color-change-indicating dyes do not all react at this point, selection for a given titration must be made with regard to the required point ofchange. (references) |
