Characteristics of high-tension magnetos
A 1920 technical report issued through the NASA Technical Reports Server, covering high-tension magnetos, the ignition generators used in early aircraft engines. Its pages carry engineering graphs, waveform traces and schematic wiring diagrams of magneto windings and circuits. A designer could draw on its clean plotting conventions, labelled schematic line work and oscilloscope-style waveform layouts for technical diagrams and instrument-panel graphics.
