Modification of a Commutator Motor and Its Operation as a Repulsion Motor: Thesis (Classic Reprint)

This book investigates the operation of a repulsion motor, a type of alternating current motor that combines the characteristics of a motor and a generator. The author examines the internal actions of the motor as the position of the brushes is changed, providing a detailed analysis of the variation in transformer voltage, counter electromotive force, torque, and speed. The book also explores the effect of resistance and reactance in the armature circuit on the motor's performance. The author's insights into the complex interactions within the motor offer valuable knowledge for electrical engineers, researchers, and anyone interested in the design and operation of electric motors.
