A high-speed voltage-regulating and static-excitation system for A-C aircraft generators

摘要

WITHIN the past few years there has been developed a new type of voltage-regulating and static-excitation system for a 40-kva (kilovolt-ampere) a-c aircraft generator. The system is unique in its manner of excitation control, and exhibits rather remarkable performance. This paper describes the system and its principle of operation, and presents performance data.
