BASIC Electrotechnology discusses the applications of Beginner's All-purpose Symbolic Instruction Code (BASIC) in engineering, particularly in solving electrotechnology-related problems. The book is comprised of six chapters that cover several topics relevant to BASIC and electrotechnology. Chapter 1 provides an introduction to BASIC, and Chapter 2 talks about the use of complex numbers in a.c. circuit analysis. Chapter 3 covers linear circuit analysis with d.c. and sinusoidal a.c. supplies. The book also discusses the elementary magnetic circuit theory. The theory and performance of two winding transformers from an equivalent circuit approach are also tackled. The last chapter covers the electromechanical energy conversion. The text will be of great use to undergraduate students of electrical engineering.

This sixth volume of Reed's Marine Engineering Series is based principally upon the Electrotechnology syllabuses for Class 1 and Class 2 Engineers. It is also suitable for Marine Engineering cadets studying the Electrical Engineering Principles unit of the BTEC programme. The book follows the same pattern as the other volumes in this series which has proved so succesful ie emphasis on basic principles, extensive illustrations, worked examples included in the text, practice examples at the end of each chapter and finally, selections of Class 1 and Class 2 exam questions. Fully worked step by step solutions to every problem are provided which will prove especially helpful to Engineers studying at sea.

Within the marine and offshore industry, there is a clear and growing need for increased training and education on the use of electrical power systems. The number of electrical plant and appliances now in service has grown at an alarming rate in recent years, as has the amount of electrical power generated and utilised on board. Large passenger ships now carry as many electrical officers as marine engineers, and electrical propulsion is now in common use by LNG carriers, small parcel tankers, oil tankers, ferries, offshore support, the navy, fleet auxiliary, cable layers and cruise ships. A number of shipping companies now award the Chief Electro Technical Officer the equivalent rank to the ship's master and Chief Engineer. These developments have resulted in the establishment of a Foundation Degree programme for Electro Technical Officers and the current development of full degree programmes. As such, a targeted textbook for students on the subject is required. As with all titles in the Reeds Marine Engineering Series, this book will be written in clear, accessible language, so as to be of use to all students and particularly those for whom English isn't their first language. Technical drawings and diagrams will be used throughout and each chapter will be accompanied by example examination questions.

A practical treatment of power system design within the oil, gas, petrochemical and offshore industries. These have significantly different characteristics to large-scale power generation and long distance public utility industries. Developed from a series of lectures on electrical power systems given to oil company staff and university students, Sheldrake's work provides a careful balance between sufficient mathematical theory and comprehensive practical application knowledge. Features of the text include: Comprehensive handbook detailing the application of electrical engineering to the oil, gas and petrochemical industries Practical guidance to the electrical systems equipment used on off-shore production platforms, drilling rigs, pipelines, refineries and chemical plants Summaries of the necessary theories behind the design together with practical guidance on selecting the correct electrical equipment and systems required Presents numerous 'rule of thumb' examples enabling quick and accurate estimates to be made Provides worked examples to demonstrate the topic with practical parameters and data Each chapter contains initial revision and reference sections prior to concentrating on the practical aspects of power engineering including the use of computer modelling Offers numerous references to other texts, published papers and international standards for guidance and as sources of further reading material Presents over 35 years of experience in one self-contained reference Comprehensive appendices include lists of abbreviations in common use, relevant international standards and conversion factors for units of measure An essential reference for electrical engineering designers, operations and maintenance engineers and technicians.
