action, and this kind of shunt dynamo-electric machine,as it is called, has been since largely adopted in the productionof electric light. The greatest uniformity of current is produced,however, by combining the shunt with a method of winding thecoils, whereby the field magnets are furnished with… … Fig. 371. The De Meritens machine combines the principle of action ofthe machines of Holmes and Gramme, and is remarkable for itsefficiency in converting motive power into electricity by induc-tion from a magnetic field produced by permanent magnets. The distinctive feature of the De Meritens…
