Motor-Driven Inductor Alternators.—Thus far in this partof the chapter attention has been centered on revolving armaturegenerators. It is equally feasible to generate 500-cycle cur-rent by means of inductor alternators. Fig. IZi representsa motor-driven inductor alternator for conversion from directto alternating current at 500 cycles. The table following givesthe data as taken from the name Fig. 122.—Motor-generator set of Fig. 121 partly dismantled. 1. Motor brushes. 2. Motor field windings. 3. Motor field poles. 4. Motor field joke. 5. Terminals of motor field wind- ings. Described in Sec. 97. ^o How this is done is explained in Sec. 97. INDUCTOR ALTERNATORS. 199
