Excerpt from Electric Transients
Transient electric phenomena generally increase in commercial importance with the size and complexity of electric systems, and a knowledge of the fundamental principles of electric transients and their application to the solution of quantitative problems is as essential to the successful operation of large power and communication systems as a mastery of the basic laws of direct and alternating currents.
This work is an outline of an introductory lecture and laboratory course given during the past twelve years to electrical engineering students in the University of Washington. The purpose of the book is to aid the student in gaining clear concepts of the fundamental principles of electric transient phenomena and their application to quantitative problems. The course as outlined is professedly of an elementary character with emphasis placed on the physical properties of electric transients. The text is illustrated and supplemented by a large number of oscillograms of transients that occur in the various types of machines and electric circuits in common use in electrical engineering laboratories. The problems are based on quantitative data obtained from laboratory experiments under circuit conditions that may easily be reproduced by the student.
Quantitative laboratory work is essential in order to readily gain insight into the physical nature of transient electric phenomena. It is advisable to require the student to devote at least two-thirds of the time allotted to a course in electric transients to the taking of oscillograms.

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.
Electric Transients by Carl Edward Magnusson. This book is a reproduction of the original book published in 1922 and may have some imperfections such as marks or hand-written notes.

Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book delves into the captivating realm of 'transient electric phenomena,' exploring the brief yet impactful electrical occurrences that transpire within systems during periods of change. While direct and alternating currents often take center stage in electrical engineering, the author emphasizes the crucial role of transients in shaping the behavior of complex electrical systems, particularly in power and communication networks. Emerging from a rich history of electrical engineering advancements in the early 20th century, this work offers a comprehensive introduction to the fundamental principles governing transient phenomena. The author's approach is rooted in the physical properties of these events, providing clear explanations and practical insights. Through detailed illustrations and oscillograms, readers embark on a journey into the intricacies of single and double energy transients, electric line oscillations, and the impact of variable circuit constants. The book explores resonant phenomena and coupled circuits, delving into the complexities of energy transfer and oscillation within interconnected systems. Rich with practical examples and experimental data, the author unravels the mysteries behind transient behaviors in various electrical apparatus, including motors, generators, and transformers. By illuminating the often overlooked aspects of electrical systems, this book empowers engineers and students to gain a deeper understanding of transient phenomena and their profound implications for the design and operation of modern electrical infrastructure. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book. print-on-demand item. N° de réf. du vendeur 9781330314524_0
