Learn the principles behind alternating current motors and how they behave in real machines. This edition explains how induction motors generate revolving fields, how excitation affects performance, and how to analyze current, torque, and efficiency with practical diagrams and equations.
With clear explanations of single- and polyphase configurations, the book builds from core concepts to more advanced topics like synchronous converters, motor starting methods, and the interaction between transformer fields and speed. It emphasizes reliable methods and cautions against overextending empirical formulas beyond tested ranges.
Ideal for engineers, students, and technicians seeking a solid, application‑oriented understanding of alternating current motors.
