AMPERE OUTPUT DYNAMO R.P.M. IV MAIN-BRUSH POSITION TESTS OF R GOSHAWK DYNAMO WITH THICK CARCASE AND SMALL AIR-GAP Control brush adjusted in each case to give a final temperature of from 77° to 80°C at maximum load. Final ambient temperature 21°C. CURVE A Brushes 4° retarded 78°C " B " 3° " 78°C " C " 2° " 78°C " D " 1° " 79.5°C " N " in neutral position 77°C " E " 1° advanced 77°C " F " 2° " 79°C Positions measured circumferentially on carcase from neutral position.
