Abstract :
This paper describes a graphical method for calculating the steady-state characteristics of d-c controllable reactors, using universal curves drawn on a per-unit basis. The phenomenon of d-c flux reduction, caused by the alternating current acting on the nonlinear flux path, is pointed out, and certain general conclusions are drawn. Comparison with experimental results indicates that the accuracy is reasonably good.
