Direct-current transmission is occasionally used because it allows propeller speed and engine speed to be completely independent. Alternating-current transmission with synchronous propulsion motors also is used, usually in high-powered propulsion plants because it avoids the commutation problems that handicap high-power direct-current machinery. Exact electrical synchronization…
