  • Abstract
    At the end of World War II, the need for reduction in the number of general-purpose engine generators, as well as associated equipment, for military requirements was evident. Assigned the responsibility of solving the difficult problem, the Corps of Engineers, U. S. Army, is developing a family of generator sets in which the 30-kw interchangeable-engine generator set presents a logical approach to one of the major problems.
