Alternating-Current Electricity and Its Applications to Industry First Course. E-book. Formato PDF - 9780243661046

Tms book is planned to meet the need for an elementary text on alternating-current electricity, simple enough to be readily understood by beginners, and, at the same time, complete enough to be a proper foundation for engineering practice or for later advanced study. The authors have tried to present a thorough treatment of the general principles, everywhere closely associating the principles with the machines, the methods and the facts of everyday practice. It is believed that information thus arranged becomes immediately usable, and that, in ad dition, the student receives the suggestion and incentive for further study on his own initiative. Throughout the text, the steps by which new ideas are introduced have been made small. The increased speed and certainty with which the students advance under this plan has been found, on care ful trial, to more than compensate for the longer text made necessary.
