Regulation of Dynamos
The regulation of dynamos so that they shall maintain a constant potential difference in the leads of their circuit for multiple arc systems or shall deliver a constant current in series systems. Hence two different systems of regulation are required, (a) constant potential regulation--(b) constant current regulation. The first named is by far the more important, as it concerns multiple arc lighting, which is the system universally used for incandescent lighting. S. P. Thompson thus summarizes the methods of governing or regulating dynamos. Premising that alteration of the magnetic flux is the almost universal way of control, it can be done in two ways; first, by varying the excitation or ampere turns of the field, and second by varying the reluctance of the magnetic circuit. The excitation or magnetic flux may be varied (a) by hand, with the aid of rheostats and commutators in the exciting circuit; (b) automatically, by governors, taking the place of the hand; (c) by compound windings. The magnetic circuit may have its reluctance caused to vary in several ways; (d) by moving the pole pieces nearer to or further from the armature; (e) by opening or closing some gap in the magnetic circuit (field-magnet core); (f) by drawing the armature endways from between the pole pieces; (g) by shunting some of the magnetic lines away from the armature by a magnetic shunt. The latter magnetic circuit methods d, e, f, and g, have never met with much success except on small machines or motors. Method e is adopted in the Edison motor, the yoke being withdrawn or brought nearer the cores of the coils. (See Regulation, Constant Current-Regulation, constant Potential.)
