Abstract :
THE CARBON pile voltage regulator used on aircraft is an electromechanical device designed to maintain constant generator voltage under the varying loads and speeds encountered. The speed requirement is especially severe as aircraft generators are driven from the main engines and thus are subjected to a speed range of at least two to one.
