9781332792443: Elements of Alternating Currents (Classic Reprint)

Synopsis

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.

  • Core concepts: magnetic flux, inductance, and energy in magnetic fields
  • Practical treatment of alternating-current machines and devices
  • Methods for measuring and understanding emf, current, and power factors
  • Foundations for design and analysis of transformers, motors, and transmission lines
Ideal for readers seeking a solid, application-oriented grounding in alternating currents and their practical uses.

Présentation de l'éditeur

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.
