Induction Machines Handbook: Steady State Modeling and Performance offers a thorough treatment of steady-state induction machines (IM), the most used electric motor (generator) in rather constant or variable speed drives, forever lower energy consumption and higher productivity in basically all industries, from home appliances, through robotics to e-transport and wind energy conversion.Chapter 1 offers a detailed introduction from fundamental principles to topological classifications and most important applications and power ranges from tens of W to tens of MW.Then individual Chapters 2 and 4 deal in detail with specific issues, such asMagnetic, electric, and insulation materialsElectric windings and their mmfMagnetization curve and inductanceLeakage inductances and resistancesSteady-state equivalent circuit and performanceStarting and speed control methodsSkin and on-load saturation effectsField harmonics, parasitic torques, radial forces, noiseLossesThermal modelingSingle-phase induction machine basicsSingle-phase induction motors: steady-state modeling and performanceFully revised and updated to reflect the last decade's progress in the field, this third edition adds new sections, such asMultiphase and multilayer tooth-wound coil windingsThe brushless doubly fed induction machine (BDFIM)Equivalent circuits for BDFIMControl principles for doubly fed IMMagnetic saturation effects on current and torque versus slip curvesRotor leakage reactance saturationClosed-slot IM saturationThe origin of electromagnetic vibration by practical experiencePM-assisted split-phase cage-rotor IM's steady stateThe promise of renewable (hydro and wind) energy via cage-rotor and doubly fed variable speed generators e-transport propulsion and i-home appliances makes this third edition a state-of-the-art tool, conceived with numerous case studies and timely for both academia and industry.

The numerous numerical design and control examples(with practical specifications) throughout the 23 Chapters of the book allow the reader deep and fast access to a practical but thorough unitary (good for comparisons) methodology in designing and control of LEMs for various applications

The third edition of this bestselling textbook incorporates the latest technologies used to save energy and increase productivity, stability, and reliability. It includes new references to key research and development activities, adds nearly 120 new pages covering recent advances, and features two new chapters on advanced scalar control and multiphase electric machine drives. All solved numerical examples have been retained, and 10 MATLAB®¿Simulink® programs remain online to ensure students gain a practical understanding of the subtleties involved in the operation of modern electric drives.

This book provides extensive coverage of variable speed generators in distributed generation and renewable energy applications around the world. Numerous design and control examples illustrate the exposition. Fully revised and updated to reflect the last decade¿s worth of progress in the field, the second edition adds material on doubly fed induction generator control under unbalanced voltage sags and nonlinear loads, interior permanent magnet claw-pole-alternator systems, high power factor Vernier permanent magnet (PM) generators, PM-assisted reluctance synchronous motors/generators for electric hybrid vehicles, and more.

This book explores large- and medium-power synchronous generator topologies, steady state, modeling, transients, control, design, and testing. Numerous case studies, worked-out examples, sample results, and illustrations highlight the concepts. Fully revised and updated to reflect the last decade¿s worth of progress in the field, the second edition adds coverage of high-power wind generators with fewer or no permanent magnets (PMs), PM-assisted DC-excited salient pole synchronous generators, autonomous synchronous generators¿ control, line switching parameter identification for isolated grids, synthetic back-to-back load testing with inverter supply, and more.
