All of these have become standard practice and are operated at the usual voltage of from 500 to 600 volts. The current on lines of any considerable length is alternating current, supplied from large central generating stations and transformed to direct as occasion may demand at suitable sub-stations.
It is built on exactly the same lines as the experimental transmitter just described, but instead of using a 100 volt plate amplifier as a makeshift generator of oscillations it employs a vacuum tube made especially for setting up oscillations and instead of having a low plate voltage it is energized with 350 volts. The Apparatus You Need.
Apart from the patents taken out by Sir Oliver Lodge and Dr Alexander Muirhead, in 1897, patents were taken out in Germany by Professor Braun of Strasbourg, who was joined by Professor Slaby and Count D'Arco in 1903 to form the Telefunken company, and in the U.S.A. by Dr Lee De Forest of the American De Forest Wireless Telegraph Company who was the first to use a high A.C. voltage of 20,000 volts to obtain the necessary high-potential discharges, thus dispensing with the induction coil.
"Well" he hesitated "where were you when it happened?" The man looked at him stupidly. "What?" he mumbled. "I I don't seem to remember. You see I was in the condenser room building up the charge for to-morrow I mean to-day sixty thousand volts at the terminals, and the fluid clearing up. I guess I looked out of the window a minute to see the fireworks and then somehow I was out on the platform."
Water Valve Analogue of Electric Resistance. A- a valve limits the flow of water. What Ohm's Law Is. If, now, you know what the current flowing in a circuit is in amperes, and the electromotive force, or pressure, is in volts, you can then easily find what the resistance is in ohms of the circuit in which the current is flowing by this formula: Volts E = Ohms, or = R Amperes I
This switch and fuse block is the same as that used in the experimental set. The Protective Condenser. This is a fixed condenser having a capacitance of 1 mfd. and will stand 750 volts. It costs $2.00. Connecting Up the Transmitting Apparatus. From all that has gone before you have seen that each piece of apparatus is fitted with terminal, wires, taps or binding posts.
At equal speed the volts consumed on a single thread machine as compared with a shuttle machine is about as 2 to 3. In average commercial use, however, the positions are reversed, and the ratio of volts consumed in the single thread as compared with the shuttle machine is about as 5 to 3. To double the speed on a sewing machine requires about 2½ times the power.
Where you use one 50 watt oscillator tube you will need a motor-generator that develops a plate potential of 1000 volts and has an output of 200 watts. This machine will stand you about $100.00. A 1000 Mile C. W. Telegraph Transmitter.
Draw a square, A B C D divide B C into 746 parts, and C D into 1,000 parts, or, generally, let a division on C D be 0.746 of a division on B C, so that we can use the horizontal lines cutting A B as a horse power scale. A B, in the above diagram, gives 1,000 horse power, if the line B C represents 746 volts, and C D 1,000 amperes.
Or in a pinch you can use five standard B batteries to develop the plate voltage, but these will soon run down. But whatever you do, never use a current from a lighting circuit on a tube of any kind that has a rated plate potential of less than 100 volts. The Apparatus You Need.
