Abstract

In considering the selection of a thesis subject my attention was directed by the chapter in "Alternating Current Phenomena" by Dr. Charles P. Stinmetz headed "Transformation of Polyphase Systems." Many of the conditions obtained in unbalanced polyphase systems, while generally taken for granted, are not so backed up by published data as to give to the young engineering student any records upon which the statements given are based.

This, together with the fact that the regular College Course as given must of necessity deal only with fundamentals, with but few digressions into the detail of any specific class of phenomena, caused me to selected for my thesis the investigation of; first, polyphase currents in general and second, a few specific instances of loading one phase only of a three phase system.
