Gray, Alexander, 1882-1921 · New York [etc.] McGraw-Hill Book Company, inc. · leaf 101
Fig. 101, where C is a carbon pile iheostat andB is a solenoid carrying the line current. If the current in theexternal circuit increases, the pull of the solenoid B also increasesand the carbon pile is compressed and its resistance therebydecreased, see page 29, so that it shunts more of the… … *-*- Fig. 101.—Automatic regulator for a constant-current generator. 85. Problem on Generator Characteristics.—a. A direct-current shuntgenerator was tested with the brushes shifted forward in the direction ofmotion. The voltage drop between no-load and full-load was 6 volts, whatare the causes of…
