One of the exciter governors isshown in Fig. 18. As will be seen inFig. 14, and in some of the other fig-ures, fly-wheels have been adopted onthese small turbines, owing to the in-sufficient fly-wheel effect of the exciterarmatures to which they are coupled. Alternator alternators, as before stated,were supplied by Messrs. Vickers, Lim-ited, of River Don Works, are of the firms standard horiz-ontal-shaft rotating-field t
