Constant-Voltage Transmission

Bristol Dwight Herbert

Description

Whilst the greatest effort has been made to ensure the quality of this text, due to the historical nature of this content, in some rare cases there may be minor issues with legibility. The new system of constant-voltage transmission has been successfully applied to both large and small power projects, and the results thereby obtained demonstrate convincingly that this method must be closely in vestigated by those responsible for the management or design of electric-power projects. The advantages of synchronous motors for raising the power-factor of the load of a steam-driven station have been thoroughly de scribed. It is, however, not so well known that synchro nous motors are of far greater value with long-distance transmission systems than with local power systems, so much so, in fact, that synchronous motors can often be installed to run idle, and yet save several times their cost.
