Chapman S. Electric Machinery Fundamentals

5th Edition. — USA: McGraw-Hill Science, 2005. – 708 p. – (Textbook). – ISBN: 978-0-07-352954-7.Electric Machinery Fundamentals continues to be a best-selling machinery text due to its accessible, student-friendly coverage of the important topics in the field.
In the fifth edition, the use of MatLAB continues to be incorporated in examples and problems, where applicable. The targeted and thought-provoking problems you've come to appreciate have been retained in this edition.
Chapman continues to share his up-to-date knowledge and experiences in the field in an engaging and understandable style.
In the years since the first edition of Electric Machinery Fundamentals was ( published, there has been rapid advance in the development of larger and more sophisticated solid-state motor drive packages. The first edition of this book stated that de motors were the method of choice for demanding variable-speed applications. That statement is no longer true today. Now, the system of choice for speed control applications is most often an ac induction motor with a solid-state motor drive. DC motors have been largely relegated to special-purpose applications where a de power source is readily available, such as in automotive electrical systems.Introduction to Machinery Principles.
