Abstract :
THE output of electric apparatus is limited usually by maximum allowable temperatures. If electromagnetic and other design factors permit, the output can be increased by applying additional cooling. This increased cooling principle permits greater output per pound of electric apparatus and has been applied to aircraft generators for a number of years to increase electric system capacity and reduce installed weight.
