Description

Mercury ARC Power Rectifiers
by
OTHMAR K. MARTI (1930)
478 Pages
This book is intended to explain the operation of the rectifier,
to derive the mathematical relations of currents and voltages
in rectifier circuits, and to outline the present-day practice in
the application of steel-enclosed rectifiers, with emphasis on their
employment in railway service.
