About the Book:
"Electric Drives: Operation, Control and Applications" is a
comprehensive guide that covers all aspects of electric drives. Starting with
the fundamental concepts, this book offers detailed explanations of the
steady-state and dynamic performance of both DC and AC motor drives. It
extensively covers both conventional and power electronic control, including
open loop and closed loop configurations.
To grasp the concept of electronic power control of drives, the book
provides a thorough description of power electronics converters. The examples
provided in this book are programmed using MATLAB 13.0, with simulated results
included for better understanding. The selection of motor power rating and the
industrial applications of electric drives are explored in dedicated chapters.
Designed as an introductory text for both undergraduate and postgraduate
students of electrical engineering, as well as undergraduate electronics
engineering students, this book is written in a clear and straightforward
language. It is also suitable for self-study for practicing engineers.
"Electric Drives: Operation, Control and Applications" is the
ultimate reference for anyone looking to gain a comprehensive understanding of
electric drives and their applications.
