could maintain full fieldexcitation for nearly 4 seconds. It is interesting to note that the duration of the field dischargedoes not depend on the voltage, current, or size of the machine,but merely on, first, the magnetic flux and m.m.f., — whichdetermine the stored magnetic energy, — and, second,… … Fig. 12. — Magnetic Single-energy Transient. coil is not short-circuited upon itself, but its circuit closed by aresistance r.
