  • Abstract
    The elaborate electric systems in modern long-range aircraft have made accuracy of load analysis more important than ever before. A more precise evaluation of the adequacy of proposed generating equipment can be made by averaging expected loads over several different periods which are chosen on the basis of the generators´ thermal characteristics. These averages are compared graphically with curves which show the maximum overloads generators can tolerate without damage.
