Availability Information

We source books from suppliers in Australia and overseas. For books we don't currently have in stock, the time it takes to get them from our suppliers can vary widely - from a few days to a few months - so we check each book with each supplier to determine the expected time it will take to be supplied to us.

We then advise you accordingly. If the time taken to get any book is too long for you, you can let us know and we will cancel or adjust your order, and refund as required.

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 as

Magnetic, electric, and insulation materials

Electric windings and their mmf

Magnetization curve and inductance

Leakage inductances and resistances

Steady-state equivalent circuit and performance

Starting and speed control methods

Skin and on-load saturation effects

Field harmonics, parasitic torques, radial forces, noise

Losses

Thermal modeling

Single-phase induction machine basics

Single-phase induction motors: steady-state modeling and performance

Fully revised and updated to reflect the last decade’s progress in the field, this third edition adds new sections, such as

Multiphase and multilayer tooth-wound coil windings

The brushless doubly fed induction machine (BDFIM)

Equivalent circuits for BDFIM

Control principles for doubly fed IM

Magnetic saturation effects on current and torque versus slip curves

Rotor leakage reactance saturation

Closed-slot IM saturation

The origin of electromagnetic vibration by practical experience

PM-assisted split-phase cage-rotor IM’s steady state

The 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.
