[Auszug] The homopolar generator was designed to produce a roughly sinusoidal current pulse lasting for nearly 2 sec with a peak of 1-6 million amp. In the initial tests1, this current was drawn from the rotors by means of sheet jets of sodium-potassium alloy. The brushes have been designed for the same ...
