An Investigation of Rotations Produced by Current Form a Single-Phase Alternator: A Thesis (Classic Reprint) - Softcover
Synopsis
Excerpt from An Investigation of Rotations Produced by Current Form a Single-Phase Alternator: A Thesis
Christmas Day, 1821, marks the primary production of magnetic rotation, when Michael Faraday1 (17 91 - 1867 the greatest experimentalist of the nineteenth century in electricity and magnetism, obtained the revolution of a magnet around an electric current.
This first electro magnetic rotation was produced by placing a small magnet in mercury, one end being weighted with platinum to keep it in an upright position, and passing a cur rent down through the mercury in a manner indicated by Fig. 1.

Seller rating 4 out of 5 stars
Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book provides a comprehensive historical survey of the development of single-phase alternator current rotations, a phenomenon where alternating current produces movement in magnetic components. Beginning with Faraday's foundational experiments in 1821, the author traces the contributions of scientists like Ampere, Barlow, Christie, Babbage, Page, Matteucci, Jochmann, Hertz, Foucault, Baily, Guthrie, Boys, and more as they investigated the effects and applications of alternating current rotations. The book delves into concepts such as eddy current paths, induction, motor design, and phase differences, exploring the evolution of understanding in these areas. Through its detailed analysis of scientific advancements and theoretical insights, this book offers a valuable resource for researchers, students, and anyone interested in the history of electromagnetism and the development of electrical machinery. 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. Seller Inventory # 9780282317447_0
