Design of Rotating Electrical Machines by Juha Pyrhonen; Tapani Jokinen; Valeria HrabovcovaIn one complete volume, this essential reference presents an in-depth overview of the theoretical principles and techniques of electrical machine design. This book enables you to design rotating electrical machines with its detailed step-by-step approach to machine design and thorough treatment of all existing and emerging technologies in this field. Senior electrical engineering students and postgraduates, as well as machine designers, will find this book invaluable. In depth, it presents the following: Machine type definitions; different synchronous, asynchronous, DC, and doubly salient reluctance machines. An analysis of types of construction; external pole, internal pole, and radial flux machines. The properties of rotating electrical machines, including the insulation and heat removal options. Responding to the need for an up-to-date reference on electrical machine design, this book includes exercises with methods for tackling, and solutions to, real design problems. A supplementary website hosts two machine design examples created with MATHCAD: rotor surface magnet permanent magnet machine and squirrel cage induction machine calculations. Classroom tested material and numerous graphs are features that further make this book an excellent manual and reference to the topic.

An Introduction to Electrical Machines and Transformers by George McPherson; Robert D. LaramoreElectrical engineering students are traditionally given but brief exposure to the important topic of electrical machines and transformers. This text/reference comprises a thorough and accessible introduction to the subject and this Second Edition contains more material on small machinery and a new chapter on the ``energy conversion'' approach to calculation of magnetically developed forces. A circuit model is developed for each of the basic devices and the physical basis of each model is explained. Chapters are relatively independent of one another and follow the same general plan--coverage is broad and deep enough to permit flexibility in course design.

Analysis of Electric Machinery and Drive Systems by Paul C. Krause; Oleg Wasynczuk; Scott D. SudhoffAn updated approach to reference frame analysis of electric machines and drive systems Since the first edition of Analysis of Electric Machinery was published, the reference frame theory that was detailed in the book has become the universally accepted approach for the analysis of both electric machines and electric drive systems. Now in its second edition, Analysis of Electric Machinery and Drive Systems presents, in one resource, the application of this theory to the analysis, simulation, and design of the complete drive system including the machine, converter, and control. Supplemented with more than 325 figures, this book also covers: Analysis of converters used in electric drive systems, as well as DC, induction, and brushless DC motor drives Detailed treatment of supervisory down to switch level converter controls Nonlinear average value modeling of converters and drive systems Operational impedances and reduced-order modeling Guidelines for computer simulation of machines and drive systems Complete with condensed, quick-reference treatments of necessary theoretical material, Analysis of Electric Machinery and Drive Systems, Second Edition is appropriate as a senior- and graduate-level text as well as an invaluable resource for electrical, mechanical, and systems engineers in the electric machinery and drives areas.
