Abstract :
A small electrostatic induction motor has been built, and its construction is described. an analysis of the working of the machine is presented and its torque-speed characteristic is derived. Experimental results compare satisfactorily with predictions. A method of torque optimization is proposed, derived from the results of the analysis.<>
