    Compulsators (compensated pulsed altarnators) are ac generators designed maximize the short circuit current that could be delivered to the load. The role of the compensation (active/passive/selectively passive) is to minimize the inductance of the alternator during the discharge process. Over the last three decades, many topologies of the compulsator have been evolved in order to achieve a...
