  • Abstract
    “A booming aluminmn industry is demanding ever-increasing blocks of directcurrent power to satisfy the growing ap petite for aluminum. Rectifiei engiireers are faced with the need forincreased increasing eatings in circuit breakers and ignitron tubes as well as improved rectifier circuits and transforirier designs. The AIEE helps me as a transformer design engineer through Its publications which reveal the latest thinking of experienced men concerning these and otherengineering problems. By attending the local meetings of the AIEE, 1 have maintained an interest in fields other than those associated with rectifiers. In addition, these meetings have brought me into contact with members engaged in a variety of engineering pursuits.”
