Nothing wrong with linear motor control, it's just inefficient and
produces a lot of heat. I used to work in a place with a 1.2 MW DC
motor whose field coil voltage was controlled by a couple rooms full
of cast-iron resistors. The resistance array lasted nearly 80 years
before the whole facility was taken down.
I've got ask- what was this motor used for?
pumping station? mining equipment steel mill?
Just to blow a lot of HOT AIR around, and it seems to work!
