We use Optical Character Recognition (OCR) during our scanning and processing workflow to make the content of each page searchable. You can view the automatically generated text below as well as copy and paste individual pieces of text to quote in your own work.

Text recognition is never 100% accurate. Many parts of the scanned page may not be reflected in the OCR text output, including: images, page layout, certain fonts or handwriting.

300 RICHARDSON'S BLUEBOOK OF PROJECTION coupled together so that there is a continuously fixed phase spacing of their output. Series-Connected Dynamos (75) Two or more dynamos connected in series will produce current flow (amperage) equal only to the capacity or output of any one of them, but the resultant voltage will be equal to the combined voltage of them all.* Thus, two 110 volt, 70 amperage machines in series would charge the circuit with 220 volts and supply a maximum of 70 amperes. Series Wound Dynamo (76) The winding consists of a relatively small number of turns of heavy, insulated wire wound upon the field magnets of the machine — this being in series with the armature, so that the entire armature output passes through the coil. Shunt (77) As applied to an electric circuit it is a branch conductor which joins the main circuit at each end. It forms a parallel path by means of which the current flow is divided, the portion flowing through the shunt serving, presumably, some special purpose. Shunt Circuit This is the same as "shunt." Shunt Wound Field (78) A shunt dynamo having a field in the form of a circuit that forms a shunt to the external circuit. Such shunt field-winding consists of many turns of a rather small wire. It is regulated so that only a small portion of the armature current passes through the shunt field. *Power output is measured in watts, which is equal to volts times amperes. It then follows that increase in either amperage or volts, o«* both, increases power.
