  • Abstract
    Aircraft application of regulated frequency a-c power obtained from main-engine driven sources requires a generator drive capable of providing a controlled output speed independent of airplane engine operation. Performance of a variable ratio hydraulic-mechanical drive utilizing engine shaft power for this purpose is presented. General characteristics and service experience covering an actual installation are included.
