Foundations of Electroheat unifies an extremely diverse area of
electricity utilisation in a coherent and concise reference. From
laser welding to plasma furnaces for waste treatment and induction
heating for forging to radio frequency drying textiles, the various
topics that comprise electroheat are presented as a whole. The
unified approach concentrates on three major themes:
- Electromagnetic heating, embracing direct resistance, induction
heating of metals and radio frequency and microwave heating of
dielectrics
- The ionised state, dealing with laser processing, plasma
torches and furnaces, glow discharges for nitriding and arc
furnaces for melting scrap
- Heat and mass transfer
The impact of computers on electrotechnology is explored by
considering topics such as expert systems, neural networks and
computational electromagnetics. Featuring industrial applications
and case studies, as well as worked examples of the principles
involved, this text is essential reading for the engineering
student of electroheat. Professional engineers, scientists and
technologists interested in the efficient utilisation of electrical
energy will also find this an invaluable reference.
