  • Abstract
    Accurate and practical formulas for determining the number of revolutions and time required to stop a synchronous machine by dynamic braking are presented in this article, thus enabling the prediction of dynamic braking performance comparable with that of other machine characteristics. The method is new to the extent that it treats variable speed short circuits.
