STUDY OF A HIGH VOLTAGE D-C GENERATOR

Abstract A new high voltage d-c generator is presented. It is made of several transformer units in such a way that insulation problems can be conveniently solved. Several rectifying units are thus fed by alternation voltages, and are series connected. The object of the paper is to describe the electromagnetic behavior of this system, and to give a method to predict the external characteristics. A practical example is given, so that theoretical formulas are checked against experiment.
