In the motor ofb^ig. 7 the flux along the brush axis depends solely upon thee. m. f., Es, and is unaffected in any way by the current inthe armature. The current in the compensating and com-nmtating winding is a dependent variable, having a valuesuch as not only to oppose the magnetomotive force of thearmature current, but also to supply the m. m. f. to producethe flux demanded by the e. m. f.

I AND 5.—EQUIVALENT OF CIRCUITS SHOWN INFIGS. 1 AND 2 generates in the armature coil under the brush a speede. m. f. that neutralizes the transformer e. m. f. producedin this coil by the alternating field flux. It is interesting to examine the required value and time-phase position of the commutating flux. The transformere. m. f. of the field flux varies in value solely with thefield strength, and is always in time-quadrature therewith;it is unaffected by the speed except to the extent that the
