160. výročí Siemensovy dvojité T-kotvy v dynamoelektrických strojích

Abstrakt

160th Anniversary of the Siemens Double-T Anchor in Dynamo-electric Machines

During the 1870s and 1880s electrotechnology grew to be a major component of the industrialization processes in the second stage of the industrial revolution. As an independent scientific discipline it proved to be one of the first branches that established their own industry independent of traditions. The electrotechnological industry began to influence other manufacturing branches and, retroactively, its own research as well. New developments emerged primarily thanks to the simple and reliable electric rotating (dynamo-electric) machines that offered multiple applications and which grew to be competitors to the universal driving steam engines. Initially, the new machines were developed solely as sources of lighting.
