Abstract
Following the sudden loss of load by an alternator speed and terminal voltage tend to increase rapidly. In the following article, a method is outlined for predetermining such overvoltage, with especial reference to waterwheel generators. Test results which have been obtained on an actual machine prove that the curve of overvoltage which may be calculated by this method closely follows that secured in practise.
