Short-Circuits of A-C. Generators-II

Abstract
At the mid-winter convention of the A. I. E. E. in February, 1924, the writer presented a paper on the maximum instantaneous values of the currents delivered by alternating-current generators under different short-circuit conditions. A summarized table was given for the maximum values of the short-circuit currents for different winding combinations of an ideal generator on the basis of a constant field flux, and that the short-circuit occurs at the instant the axis of the field winding coincides with the axis of the particular portion of the armature winding under consideration. In the present paper, a similar analysis is given for the magnitude and variation of magnitude of the short-circuit currents during the transient period, that is, during the time the currents vary from the maximum to the sustained values.
