Alternating Current Motors (Classic Reprint) - Softcover

Inhaltsangabe

Learn the principles behind alternating current motors and how they behave in real machines. This edition explains how induction motors generate revolving fields, how excitation affects performance, and how to analyze current, torque, and efficiency with practical diagrams and equations.

With clear explanations of single- and polyphase configurations, the book builds from core concepts to more advanced topics like synchronous converters, motor starting methods, and the interaction between transformer fields and speed. It emphasizes reliable methods and cautions against overextending empirical formulas beyond tested ranges.

• How induction motors produce torque, and how design choices influence performance


• The revolving and speed-field concepts that describe motor action at different speeds


• Excitation methods, including single-phase and polyphase approaches, and their impact on currents and losses


• Applications to synchronous converters and related rotating machines, with practical measurements and analysis

Ideal for engineers, students, and technicians seeking a solid, application‑oriented understanding of alternating current motors.
