Fig. 5 represents the regulation curves on low power-factor ob-tained by first running a synchronous motor from the generator andsecondly by circulating power within the machine itself. The agree-ment between the two methods is very satisfactory. Numerous ex-periments have been made on machines designed by the author tocheck the new method against the synchronous motor generatortests, and the results have shown a very close agreement. Fig. 6 shows the regulation curves of a 3000-kw, 26-pole,50-cycle generator, obtained in this manner. Fig. 8 showsa picture of this machine. Fig. 7 shows the regulatio^
