Electrical Energy Conversion and Transport: An Interactive Computer-Based Approach

Electrical energy generation and transport has come to be recognized as a major component of the national infrastructure, and there is a growing market for electrical engineers experienced in this area. This in-depth introduction to the basic concepts of electric motor operation and energy transport is uniquely designed to support interactive teaching and computer-assisted self-learning. It schools the reader in using Mathcad and MATLAB and then shows how to apply the programs to solve problems. In addition to the text and numerous examples, a set of Powerpoint slides is provided to assist the instructor.
