(Fig. 26.) In the experimenting room of a factory it is often desirable tobe able to investigate large direct-current machines in respect to 826 ARNOLD AND LA COUR: COMMUTATION. the commutation without being obliged to load them can be done in the following way very simply. One recordsthe potential curve under the brush at light load and normal volt-age, and on short-circuit with normal current. By superposingthese coirves one obtains a potential curve, which varies little fromthat with load. This is easily explicable.* In the short-circuitedgenerator a field arises which does not differ much from thecross-field of the loaded machine. The slot-field is on short-circuit, also the same as with load. Hence it follows that the field. Tig. 27. Potentiai,Curves Under theBrushes at No-LOAD, FOB Short- CiBCuiT AND WhenLoaded. curve with load results approximately from the field curves onno-load and on short-circuit. The same is true, of course, for the potential curves, if we dis-regard their deformation under the brushes. This deformation, asshown above, is not great, and would influence all curves corre-spondingly, if the specific resistance of transition B,, were constantfor all curves.
