- Abstract
In this paper the latest developments in the art of Electrical Transmission are reviewed from the point of view of the theory of transmission and the relation of stability to load limits. It is the purpose of the paper to correlate the latest ideas on that subject resulting from extensive experiments which were carried out recently in America and with which the author was actively connected for some time. In an appendix the mathematics leading up to the circle diagram are introduced in a condensed form, sufficient for the purpose of deriving the circles from which certain deductions may be made, thus shortening the work considerably when any case has to be analysed. Though the graphical method introduces unavoidable inaccuracies it is important to remember that loading conditions are never known accurately and temperature variations cause errors which are outside the scope of ordinary practical analysis.
