Abstract
Adjustable-speed drives of small and medium horsepower are divided into seven types and the general characteristics of each are described and compared with reference to their application in the paper industry. Mill experience suggests that the flexibility of the adjustable-voltage d-c drive and the simplicity of the wound-rotor drive are satisfactory for most drive applications.
