If there are a number of generators of electricity in a circuit, whose electromotive forces in volts are E1, E2, etc.
Electrical energy is obtained in various ways, but the generators get heated; and one great object of inventors is to obtain from machines as much as possible electrical energy of the energy in the first place supplied to such machine.
The capsules are really miniature atomic generators and are replaced with fresh ones each night during the sleeping period, since the initial charge lasts only eighteen hours.
We merely pack a quantity of the radioactive salt around the capsules in the lining of our garments, and the radium emanations continue the excitation of the tiny atomic generators even under the influence of the neutralizing vibrations.

But we've got some field-generators here on board that I can use, so it won't be so bad.
As more and more of the inconceivable power of those Titanic generators was unleashed, it boiled forth in a devastating flood which, striking the walls, rebounded and leaped vertically far above even those mighty ramparts.
From the force-field generators of the "Forlorn Hope" he selected the two most suitable for his purpose, tuned them to the exact frequency he required, and around them built a complex system of condensers and coils.
Instead there were all the offensive and defensive weapons developed by hundreds of generations of warrior-scientists; wielding all the incalculable power capable of being produced by the massed generators of a mighty nation.
Alcantro and Fedanzo will supervise the construction of the generators of the various fields from these calculations.
In the public supply of electric power in this country, the usual practice is to use alternating-current generators in the power stations, and to transmit the power at a high voltage to substations.
Acetylene gas is formed, as is well known, by the action of water upon carbide of calcium, and the generators constructed for lantern work are essentially the same in construction as for other purposes.
Of generators which act by admitting water to the carbide perhaps the best known is the A.
The generators in most common use may be divided into two classes, i.
Theoretically one of these generators may be filled and left standing indefinitely, but in practice it is not advisable, as the damp in the atmosphere is apt to produce a very slow generation of gas, sufficient often to cause a decided smell.
This electrical energy comes along a wire from a dynamo at the waterfall, where water-wheels and generators transform into electrical energy the mechanical energy of the falling water.

The circles a a a represent switches, by means of which the generators are connected or disconnected from the trolley lines.
If two of the generators are connected with the bus bars A and B, the current required by the motors will be delivered by the two machines, and if the three generators are placed in service the current will be divided among them.
By the movement of one set of switches upon it the generators are thrown in or out of service, and by the movement of another set of switches the several branches of the road are rendered active or inactive.
When two or more generators are used, it is necessary to provide means to prevent the current from dividing unequally between them; if this were not done, one machine might do nearly all the work, while the other one would be practically idle.

You've always held that these generators work at random--the rest of those assumptions are based on your theory?
The same rule applies to generators and motors with multiple poles.
One of the generators or sources of current E or F may be dispensed with; but it is preferable to employ both, if they offer an appreciable resistance, as the two branches will be thereby better balanced.
