Electric Motors and Drives: Fundamentals, Types and Applications,
Fifth Edition is intended primarily for non-specialist users or
students of electric motors and drives, but many researchers and
specialist industrialists have also acknowledged its value in
providing a clear understanding of the fundamentals. It bridges the
gap between specialist textbooks (too analytical for the average
user) and handbooks (full of detail but with little insight)
providing an understanding of how each motor and drive system
works. The fifth edition has been completely revised, updated and
expanded. All of the most important types of motor and drive are
covered, including d.c., induction, synchronous (including
synchronous reluctance and salient Permanent Magnet), switched
reluctance, and stepping. There has been significant innovation in
this area since the fourth edition, particularly in the automotive,
aircraft and industrial sectors, with novel motor topologies
emerging, including hybrid designs that combine permanent magnet
and reluctance effects. We now include a physical basis for
understanding and quantifying torque production in these machines,
and this leads to simple pictures that illuminate the control
conditions required to optimise torque. The key converter
topologies have been brought together, and the treatment of
inverter switching strategies expanded. A new chapter is devoted to
the treatment of Field Oriented control, reflecting its increasing
importance for all a.c. motor drives. A unique physically-based
approach is adopted which builds naturally on the understanding of
motor behaviour developed earlier in the book: the largely
non-mathematical treatment dispels much of the mystique surrounding
what is often regarded as a difficult topic.
