Abstract
A new approach to the problems of brush life and commutation, bearing life and lubrication, and high ambient temperature in aircraft generator design is presented. A test and development program for obtaining adequate data for the design and construction of an oil-cooled machine is outlined. The prototype machine and some construction details are shown.
