Abstract
The waveform of the terminal voltage of an aircraft generator suffers considerable distortion from the heavy rectified loading imposed by certain airborne equipment, and it is sometimes necessary for such a load to have its own dedicated generator to prevent interaction with other equipment which requires an alternating current supply. To provide a basis for an investigation of this distortion, the paper develops a mathematical model for a typical generator/rectified-load situation, which is then used in a factorial-design study to identify the generator parameters most significant in affecting the waveform distortion.
