The two major broad applications of electrical energy are information processing and energy processing. Hence, it is no wonder that electric machines have occupied a large and revered space in the field of electrical engineering. Such an important topic requires a careful approach, and Charles A. Gross' Electric Machines offers the most balanced, application-oriented, and modern perspective on electromagnetic machines available. Written in a style that is both accessible and authoritative, this book explores all aspects of electromagnetic-mechanical (EM) machines. Rather than viewing the EM machine in isolation, the author treats the machine as part of an integrated system of source, controller, motor, and load. The discussion progresses systematically through basic machine physics and principles of operation to real-world applications and relevant control issues for each type of machine presented. Coverage ranges from DC, induction, and synchronous machines to specialized machines such as transformers, translational machines, and microelectromechanical systems (MEMS). Stimulating example applications include electric vehicles, wind energy, and vertical transportation. Numerous example problems illustrate and reinforce the concepts discussed. Along with appendices filled with unit conversions and background material, Electric Machines is a succinct, in-depth, and complete guide to understanding electric machines for novel applications.

Analysis of Electrical Machines discloses the information essential for a holistic understanding of electrical machines. The title emphasizes the effective analysis of machine performance. The text first covers the basic transformer and magnetically coupled circuit theory concepts, and then proceeds to tackling commutator machines. Next, the selection deals with synchronous and induction machines. The text also talks about the transient analysis of noncommutator machines. The last chapter details the physical basis for machine inductance parameters. The book will be of great use to both student and practicing electronics engineers and technicians.

The basic theory, principle of operation and characteristics of transformers, three-phase induction motors, single-phase induction motors, synchronous machines and dc machines are dealt with in Appendices to provide the background for the design of these machines. The initial chapters of the book are devoted to basic parameters of design of electrical apparatus, characteristics of magnetic, electric and insulating materials, construction of electrical machines, and basic design requirements of magnetic and electrical circuits of machines. Detailed procedures for designing transformers, three-phase induction motors, single-phase induction motors, synchronous machines and dc machines are explained in a simple and logical way. Several sample designs have been wroked out in detail. Methods of carrying out various tests and maintaining test records are discussed in detail. The use of computers in designing electrical machines has been illustrated. An exclusive chapter on special machines explains the basic theory and applications of stepper motors, rotating phase converters, pole amplitude modulated (PAM) motors, reluctance motors and energy efficient motors. This book is intended for degree and diploma students of electrical engineering and professional examinations of the Institution of Engineers (India). It will be useful for electrical engineers in industry engaged in design, manufacture and testing of electrical machines.

The second edition of this must-have reference covers power quality issues in four parts, including new discussions related to renewable energy systems. The first part of the book provides background on causes, effects, standards, and measurements of power quality and harmonics. Once the basics are established the authors move on to harmonic modeling of power systems, including components and apparatus (electric machines). The final part of the book is devoted to power quality mitigation approaches and devices, and the fourth part extends the analysis to power quality solutions for renewable energy systems. Throughout the book worked examples and exercises provide practical applications, and tables, charts, and graphs offer useful data for the modeling and analysis of power quality issues. - Provides theoretical and practical insight into power quality problems of electric machines and systems - 134 practical application (example) problems with solutions - 125 problems at the end of chapters dealing with practical applications - 924 references, mostly journal articles and conference papers, as well as national and international standards and guidelines
