Written for nonspecialist users of electric motors and drives, this book explains how electric drives work and compares the performance of the main systems, with many examples of applications. The author's approach using a minimum of mathematics has made this book equally popular as an outline for professionals and an introductory student text.* First edition (1990) has sold over 6000 copies.Drives and Controls on the first edition: 'This book is very readable, uptodate and should be extremely useful to both users and o.e.m. designers. I unhesitatingly recommend it to any busy engineer who needs to make informed judgements about selecting the right drive system.'New features of the second edition: * New section on the cycloconverter drive. * More on switched relectance motor drives. * More on vectorcontrolled induction motor drives. * More on power switching devices. * New 'question and answer' sections on common problems and misconceptions. * Updating throughout. Electric Motors and Drives is for nonspecialist users of electric motors and drives. It fills the gap between specialist textbooks (which are pitched at a level which is too academic for the average user) and the more prosaic 'handbooks' which are filled with useful detail but provide little opportunity for the development of any real insight or understanding. The book explores most of the widelyused modern types of motor and drive, including conventional and brushless d.c., induction motors (mains and inverterfed), stepping motors, synchronous motors (mains and converterfed) and reluctance motors.
