  • Abstract
    In this paper the design of a higher-voltage high-current self-compensated homopolar generator of high efficiency will be discussed. It is expected that this design will not only produce an efficiency of 85 to 90%, but will be small enough to outclass in size the conventional installations of machines used to produce high voltages, which is the connection of several low-voltage generators in series.
