HIGH-VOLTAGE DIRECT-CURRENT CAPACITANCE MACHINES
Abstract
The transmission of high-voltage d-c power, the peaceful use of atomic energy, the vast development of radio engineering, and the introduction of automatic industrial processes, have made necessary the quest for new methods of converting mechanical energy into high-voltage d-c power in generators, and the opposite conversion in motors. An examination is made of highvoltage d-c capacitance machines to classify th se machines and give their general theory, and to evaluate the possibilities of creating capacitance machines with high specific power and efficiency. The characteristics of various types of machines operating as generators and motors are considered. Conditions of self-excitation, commutation, and operation of capacitance machines in various specific systems are discussed. (Author)
