Unlock the fundamentals of alternating currents with practical, engineering-focused clarity.
This book lays a solid foundation in inductance, magnetic flux, and energy, showing how these ideas power modern devices from transformers to motors. Suitable for engineers and students, it emphasizes concepts you can apply in real-world design and analysis. In these pages, you’ll explore how magnetic fields store energy, how inductance arises in coils, and how electromotive force is induced. The text connects theory to practice, explaining how alternating current systems operate and how to analyze common components like the simple alternator, transformers, and induction motors.

Excerpt from Elements of Alternating Currents
This book represents the experience of seven years' teaching of alternating currents, and almost every chapter has been sub jected repeatedly to the test of class-room use. The authors have endeavored to include in the text only those things which contribute to the fundamental understanding of the subject and those things which are of importance in the engineering practice of to-day.
It may be taken for granted that the authors are deeply in debted to Mr. C. P. Steinmetz, whose papers are unique in their close touch with engineering realities. W. S. F.

Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book thoroughly examines the elements of alternating currents and lays the groundwork for understanding the principles of alternating current circuits. Electrical engineers rely heavily on AC circuits for everything from power generation to communications systems. This book begins by explaining magnetic flux, induced electromotive force, and inductance - and includes inductance calculations for coils, long solenoids, and coils wound on iron cores. Every chapter includes illustrations and examples to aid in learning and problem-solving. This book also delves into the concept of mutual inductance between coils, which is essential for the design of transformers. These introductory chapters pave the way for in-depth discussions about the electromotive force and current curves for alternating current circuits. It then explores the fundamental equation of the alternator, power in alternating current circuits, the contact maker, and the operation of ammeters, voltmeters, and wattmeters for alternating currents. This book is an invaluable resource for electrical engineers and anyone seeking a comprehensive understanding of alternating current circuits.
