FEW PROBLEMS RAISED BY THE APPLICATION OF ELECTRIC ROTATING MOTORS TO HIGH-SPEED TRANSPORT SYSTEMS

QUELQUES PROBLEMES POSES PAR L'APPLICATION DES MOTEURS ELECTRIQUES ROTATIFS AUX TRANSPORTS A GRANDE VITESSE

The author observes that the increasing interest shown at the present time for high-speed transport leads mainly to achievements in the railway field. Consequently he seeks to evaluate the influence of this speed increase on propulsion, confining himself to the case of electric rotating motors. He examines therefore successively the systems based on such motors as may be taken into account, the main propulsion data of a vehicle, and also the performance to be attained by propulsion.
