Popis: A method is described for determining the variation of the resistance (R) and the reactance (X) of an electrical network from mechanical plots of the numerators and denominators (both functions of the angular frequency ω) occurring in the expressions for R and X. From the expressions, R = N(ω)/D(ω) and X = N′(ω)/D(ω), mechanical plots of N, N′, and D versus ω can be obtained with a mechanical harmonic synthesizer, and the values of R or X corresponding to any value of ω may then be determined by taking the ratios of the ordinates of N and D, or N′ and D, corresponding to the desired value of ω.
