Excerpt from Design of 40 K. W. Inductor Generator: Thesis for Degree of Bachelor of Sciences in Electrical Engineering in the College of Engineering, University of Illinois
This was chosen, primarily, I may say, on account of the exceptional Opportunity offered for the investigation of machines of this type in actual course of construction, ar fording thereby means of securing certain valuable data os samtisi in all alternating current design, the lack of which has so often handicapped us, as students, in similar problems.
Secondarily, it may, perhaps, be said, that the design of an inductor alternator was selected in View of the fact that such a machine has not been altogether favored in the past, and the reason for this, if inherent in the machine itself, is worthy of consideration, especially so since at this time the inductor alternator seems to be pushing to the front for use in certain lines of work.
Very good text books have been written embodying all the principles underlying the design of direct current machinery.

Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book studies the design and construction of inductor alternators. Beginning with the discovery of magnetic induction by Faraday in 1831, the author traces the history of inductor-type electrical machines, discussing, among other topics, the work of Pixii, Ampere, Sarton, and Wheatstone. The book then delves into the theoretical considerations underlying inductor alternator design, including the law of the magnetic circuit, calculation of inductive drop of alternators, eddy current losses, hysteresis loss, and leakage armature radiating surface. The author provides a complete design of a 40-kilowatt inductor generator, from a determination of the number of poles required to the calculation of the temperatures of the coils. The book concludes with a discussion of the advantages and disadvantages of inductor machines, making it a valuable resource for electrical engineers and students. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format.
