Electrical Machines and Drives : Worked Examples

Containing approximately 200 problems (100 worked), the text covers a wide range of topics concerning electrical machines, placing particular emphasis upon electrical-machine drive applications. The theory is concisely reviewed & focuses on features common to all machine types. The problems are arranged in order of increasing levels of complexity & discussions of the solutions are included where appropriate to illustrate the engineering implications. This second edition includes an important new chapter on mathematical & computer simulation of machine systems & revised discussions of unbalanced operation, permanent-magnet machines & universal motors. New worked examples & tutorial problems have also been added.
