  • Abstract
    A prerequisite for the successful parallel operation of main engine driven a-c generators is suitable infinitely variable-ratio transmission and high speed governor to control it. This paper describes the development of such a governor and its successful operation on a developmental two-generator 400-cycle a-c system.
