Calorimotor :: Calorimotor (n.) A voltaic battery, having a large surface of plate, and producing powerful heating effects..

Voltameter :: Voltameter (n.) An instrument for measuring the voltaic electricity passing through it, by its effect in decomposing water or some other chemical compound acting as an electrolyte..

Depolarize :: Depolarize (v. t.) To free from polarization, as the negative plate of the voltaic battery..

Zincoid :: Zincoid (a.) Pertaining to, or resembling, zinc; -- said of the electricity of the zincous plate in connection with a copper plate in a voltaic circle; also, designating the positive pole..

Voltaplast :: Voltaplast (n.) A form of voltaic, or galvanic, battery suitable for use electrotyping..

Pile :: Pile (n.) A vertical series of alternate disks of two dissimilar metals, as copper and zinc, laid up with disks of cloth or paper moistened with acid water between them, for producing a current of electricity; -- commonly called Volta's pile, voltaic pile, or galvanic pile..

Thermovoltaic :: Thermovoltaic (a.) Of or relating to heat and electricity; especially, relating to thermal effects produced by voltaic action..

Couple :: Couple (a.) One of the pairs of plates of two metals which compose a voltaic battery; -- called a voltaic couple or galvanic couple.

Rheophore :: Rheophore (n.) One of the poles of a voltaic battery; an electrode.

Cathode :: Cathode (n.) The part of a voltaic battery by which the electric current leaves substances through which it passes, or the surface at which the electric current passes out of the electrolyte; the negative pole; -- opposed to anode..

Electro-motion :: Electro-motion (n.) The motion of electricity or its passage from one metal to another in a voltaic circuit; mechanical action produced by means of electricity.

Volta-electric :: Volta-electric (a.) Of or pertaining to voltaic electricity, or voltaism..

Electro-gilt :: Electro-gilt (a.) Gilded by means of voltaic electricity.

Chemiglyphic :: Chemiglyphic (a.) Engraved by a voltaic battery.

Depolarizer :: Depolarizer (n.) A substance used to prevent polarization, as upon the negative plate of a voltaic battery..

Negative :: Negative (n.) The negative plate of a voltaic or electrolytic cell.

Voltaic :: Voltaic (a.) Of or pertaining to voltaism, or voltaic electricity; as, voltaic induction; the voltaic arc..

Water Battery :: Water battery () A voltaic battery in which the exciting fluid is water.

Catelectrode :: Catelectrode (n.) The negative electrode or pole of a voltaic battery.

Polarization :: Polarization (n.) An effect produced upon the plates of a voltaic battery, or the electrodes in an electrolytic cell, by the deposition upon them of the gases liberated by the action of the current. It is chiefly due to the hydrogen, and results in an increase of the resistance, and the setting up of an opposing electro-motive force, both of which tend materially to weaken the current of the battery, or that passing through the cell..
