New photometric data from the eclipsing binary star AI Draconis has been an
alyzed with the method of Wilson-Devinney. The system shows a period increa
se of about 0.91 sec per century, which corresponds to amass transfer from
the less to the more massive component at a rate of 7.5 10(-7) M./yr under
the conservative mass transfer hypothesis. We also suggest that the system
has an unseen component which orbits around the mass center of the triplet
system with a period of about 23 yrs. We found that the projectional angula
r separation between the third star and eclipsing pair varies from 0." 048
to 0." 235. These results suggestive of a third body should be checked in t
he future with more sensitive observations.
