Abstract :
The Hall effect in a semiconductor is utilized to measure the flux density in the air gap of a rotating machine under transient conditions of starting and loading. This method offers several advantages over the conventional exploring-coil generator. Measurements of the flux density in a synchronous converter were made to demonstrate its applicability.
