Differential Analyzer Study of Harmonic Power Generation with Nonlinear Impedance Element
Paul E. Russell, Harold A. Peterson · Transactions of the American Institute of Electrical Engineers · 1951
Occasionally it is desirable and even necessary to have available sources of voltage supply of harmonic frequencies. Rotating machines with the appropriate number of poles have been used for this purpose. When the power requirements are low, electronic devices may be used. This paper presents results of an analysis of a nonlinear static element circuit which also may be useful as an efficient source of voltage supply of harmonic frequency of good wave form. The circuit is unique in that it uses neither rotating parts nor electronic devices.
