Matrix Analysis of Electrical Machinery, Second Edition is a 14-chapter edition that covers the systematic analysis of electrical machinery performance. This edition discusses the principles of various mathematical operations and their application to electrical machinery performance calculations. The introductory chapters deal with the matrix representation of algebraic equations and their application to static electrical networks. The following chapters describe the fundamentals of different transformers and rotating machines and present torque analysis in terms of the currents based on the principle of the conservation of energy. A chapter focuses on a number of linear transformations commonly used in machine analysis. This edition also describes the performance of other electrical machineries, such as direct current, single-phase and polyphase commutator, and alternating current machines. The concluding chapters cover the analysis of small oscillations and other machine problems. This edition is intended for readers who have some knowledge of or are concurrently studying the physical nature of electrical machines.

Electrical Machines May Be Analysed Utilising One Of The Three Methods Viz. Classical Theory, Unified Theory And The Generalised Theory Of Electrical Machines. Generalised Theory May Also Be Regarded As The Matrix Theory Of Electrical Machines Which Requires Only A Knowledge Of The Circuit Equation, Elementary Matrix Algebra And The Principle That The Power Of The System Must Remain Invariant Irrespective Of The Terms In Which It Is Expressed.This Technique Is The Best Approach To Obtain Electrical Machine Performance For Both The Non-Specialist And The Specialist And That The Latter Will Find In It, A Powerful Tool When He Is Faced With More Complicated Performance Problems. An Attempt Has Been Made In This Volume To Study Most Of The Electrical Machines Normally Covered In Undergraduate And Postgraduate Courses Utilising Matrix Analysis. The Book Also Includes Some More Advanced Problems To Indicate The Power And Limitation Of The Method.After An Introduction To The Theory, The Same Methodology Has Been Applied To Static Circuits As Illustrations. Then The Generalised Machines Of First And Second Kinds Have Been Introduced And Analysed Followed By The Different Case Studies. Both Steady State And Transient Analysis Of Conventional Machines Have Been Presented In Both Static And Rotating Reference Frames. The Beauty Of The Matrix Theory Has Been Projected While Developing The Equivalent Circuits Of Different Machines Using Revolving Field Theory Where Physical Concepts Have Been Derived From The Mathematical Models Developed Through Matrix Analysis.The Latest Development Of The Theory Viz. The Development Of State Model Of Different Electrical Machines Has Been Explained Clearly In The Text. These Models May Readily Be Utilised For Stability Analysis Using Computers.The Book Has Been Presented In Such A Way That, It Will Be A Textbook For Undergraduate And Postgraduate Students And Also A Reference Book For The Research Students In The Relevant Area And Practising Engineers.The Treatment Of The Book May Find Wide Application For The Practising Engineers Who Face Day-To-Day Problems In The Practical Field Since The Theory Is Based On Elementary Knowledge Of Matrix Algebra And Circuit Theory Rather Than Complicated Physical Laws And Hypothesis.

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.

This book will serve as a stepping stone for the undergraduate students in Electrical & Electronics Engineering for further specialization. It is a core subject in the curriculum for post-graduate Power Electronics and Power Systems Engineering disciplines offered by most of the universities and educational institutions. The book starts with the fundamental concepts such as phasors and reference frames which are not usually elaborated at the undergraduate level thereby providing smooth transition to more advanced topics as specified in the various syllabi. The book is also suitable for final semester undergraduate students and practising engineers.

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.

Worked Examples in Electrical Machines and Drives discusses methods in predicting and explaining electromechanical performance of several devices. The book is comprised of seven chapters that sequence the examples at increasing levels of difficulty. Chapter 1 provides an introduction and reviews the basic theories. The second chapter covers transformers, and the third chapter tackles d.c. machines. Chapter 4 is concerned with induction machines, while Chapter 5 deals with synchronous machines. Chapter 6 covers transient behavior, and Chapter 7 talks about power-electronic/electrical machine drives. The book will be of great use to students and instructors of schools concerned with electronic devices such as in electrical engineering, and can help enrich their lectures and practical classes.

A self-contained, comprehensive and unified treatment of electrical machines, including consideration of their control characteristics in both conventional and semiconductor switched circuits. This new edition has been expanded and updated to include material which reflects current thinking and practice. All references have been updated to conform to the latest national (BS) and international (IEC) recommendations and a new appendix has been added which deals more fully with the theory of permanent-magnets, recognising the growing importance of permanent-magnet machines. The text is so arranged that selections can be made from it to give a short course for non-specialists, while the book as a whole will prepare students for more advanced studies in power systems, control systems, electrical machine design and general industrial applications. Includes numerous worked examples and tutorial problems with answers.

Recent years have brought substantial developments in electrical drive technology, with the appearance of highly rated, very-high-speed power-electronic switches, combined with microcomputer control systems.This popular textbook has been thoroughly revised and updated in the light of these changes. It retains its successful formula of teaching through worked examples, which are put in context with concise explanations of theory, revision of equations and discussion of the engineering implications. Numerous problems are also provided, with answers supplied.The third edition includes enhanced coverage of power-electronic systems and new material on closed-loop control, in addition to thorough treatment of electrical machines.
