Abstract :
The circuit examined is the series-connected magnetic amplifier of Figure 1. This circuit has been the subject of many analyses; however, in almost all instances simplifying assumptions were made concerning the magnitude of some of the circuit parameters, but very little work has been done on circuits in which La and Ld were not zero. This article analyzes and discusses the changes in current waveshape produced by variation of the circuit parameters Ed, Ra, Ld, Ra, and Laa.
