Abstract :
A new form of transformer analogue network analyser which has been developed in the power systems laboratory of the Manchester College of Science and Technology is described. A number of new features are included, such as a polar generator unit and an entirely new type of metering system employing two-element dynamometer instruments. Sources of error in computing transformers are discussed, and the design of a transformer operating at 400 c/s, together with a transistorized linear compensator, is presented. Stability of linear and non-linear compensators, and centralized connection systems using a plugging-up board, are discussed in Appendices.
