This book has been prepared with the object of placing before junior and senior students of electrical engineering a reasonablycomplete treatment of the fundamental principles that underly the design and operation of all types of direct-current machinery. Instead of attempting to touch the high spots in the whole field of direct-current engineering, attention has been concentrated upon certain important features that are ordinarily dismissed with little more than passing mention, but which, in the opinion of the author, are vital to a thorough grasp of the subject. For example, the book will be found to contain in Chapter III a full derivation of the rules covering armature windings (following Professor A rnold), in addition to the usual description of typical windings; Chapters VI and VII include a considerable amount of new material concerning the operating characteristics of generators and motors, the treatment being largely graphical and including the use of three-dimensional diagrams for depicting the mutual relationships among all of the variables; and in Chapters VIII and IX there has been developed a much more extensive treatment of the important subject of commutation than has been heretofore easily accessible to students of the type for whom the book is intended. In the selection and arrangement of the material dealing with commutation, care has been exercised to eliminate those minute details and excessive refinements that are more likely to confuse than to clarify. Although the methods of the calculus have been freely used throughout the book, a conscious effort has been made to give special prominence to the physical concepts of which the equations are merely the short-hand expressions; to this end, the mathematical analysis has been preceded, wherever possible, by a full and copiously illustrated discussion of the physical facts of the problem

This book was originally published prior to 1923, and represents a reproduction of an important historical work, maintaining the same format as the original work. While some publishers have opted to apply OCR (optical character recognition) technology to the process, we believe this leads to sub-optimal results (frequent typographical errors, strange characters and confusing formatting) and does not adequately preserve the historical character of the original artifact. We believe this work is culturally important in its original archival form. While we strive to adequately clean and digitally enhance the original work, there are occasionally instances where imperfections such as blurred or missing pages, poor pictures or errant marks may have been introduced due to either the quality of the original work or the scanning process itself. Despite these occasional imperfections, we have brought it back into print as part of our ongoing global book preservation commitment, providing customers with access to the best possible historical reprints. We appreciate your understanding of these occasional imperfections, and sincerely hope you enjoy seeing the book in a format as close as possible to that intended by the original publisher.
