With the notable exception of photovoltaic generators, electric generators are exclusively used to produce electric energy from mechanical energy. More than 60% of all electric energy is used in electric motors for useful mechanical work in various industries. This book presents the modeling, performance, design, and control of reluctance synchronous and flux-modulation machines developed for higher efficiency and lower cost. It covers one- and three-phase reluctance synchronous motors in line-start applications and various reluctance flux-modulation motors in pulse width modulation converter-fed variable speed drives.  FEATURES         Presents basic and up-to-date knowledge about the topologies, modeling, performance, design, and control of reluctance synchronous machines.      Includes information on recently introduced reluctance flux-modulation electric machines (switched- flux, flux-reversal, Vernier, transverse flux, claw pole, magnetic-geared dual-rotor, brushless doubly fed, etc.).      Features numerous examples and case studies throughout.      Provides a comprehensive overview of all reluctance electric machines.","brand":"WoB","offers":[{"title":"- \/ - \/ INTERNAL","offer_id":52653767524625,"sku":null,"price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"GB \/ NEW \/ INGRAM","offer_id":52653767950609,"sku":"NLS9781498782333","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0784\/4072\/6801\/files\/9781498782333.jpg?v=1762212370"},{"product_id":"induction-machines-handbook-book-ion-boldea-9781032582696","title":"Induction Machines Handbook","description":"Induction Machines Handbook: Transients, Control Principles, Design and Testing presents a practical up-to-date treatment of intricate issues with induction machines (IM) required for design and testing in both rather constant- and variable-speed (with power electronics) drives.
