Principles and Problems of Electrical Machines

Provides an analytical approach to problems concerning electrical machines, with the appropriate theory, catering for elementary steady-state condition as well as complex transient states. Each section relates to one machine, with representative examples, and basic theory is followed by numerical and practical interpretation throughout. Amongst the book's key features are the full treatment of single-phase machines; coverage of the increasing importance of small machines; ideas on the treatment of transients; and practical examples for students to attempt. It is intended for use by first- and second-year undergraduate courses in electrical machines in departments of electical engineering, and on HND courses.
