Electric Machines: Steady State and Performance with MATLAB pdf

Ion Gheorghe Boldia (born January 7, 1945) is a Professor Emeritus with the University Politehnica Timisoara, Romania. Ion Boldea has introduced many firsts in electric machine technology for better industrial productivity, energy savings, and air pollution reduction. He developed an optimum goodness factor for designing high-speed linear induction motors to address factors such as mechanical vibrations and bending. He introduced the Magnibus-01, a 4-ton magnetic levitation test vehicle featuring linear homopolar synchronous motors for passive guide-way integrated magnetic propulsion and levitation. Dr. Boldea’s active flux concept is a unifying force for simplifying sensorless control of ac motor drives that has been implemented in many industrial applications. His work on torque vector control has become an industrial standard for electric motor drives.

Electric Machines: Steady State and Performance with MATLAB pdf by ion boldea

With its comprehensive coverage of the state of the art, this Second Edition introduces basic types of transformers and electric machines. Classifications and characterization―modeling and performance―of power electric transformers (single and multiphase), motors and generators, commercial machines (dc brush, induction dc excited synchronous, PM synchronous, reluctance synchronous) and some new ones (multiphase ac machines, switched reluctance machines) with great potential for industry with rotary or linear motion are all treated in the book. The book covers, in detail, circuit modeling characteristics and performance characteristics under steady state, testing techniques and preliminary electromagnetic-thermic dimensioning with lots of solved numerical examples and special cases to illustrate new electric machines with strong industrialization potential. All formulae used to characterize parameters and performance may be safely used in industry for preliminary designs and have been applied in the book through numerical solved examples of industrial interest. Numerous computer simulation programs in MATLAB® and Simulink® that illustrate performance characteristics present in the chapters are included and many be used as homework to facilitate a deeper understanding of fundamental issues. This book is intended for a first-semester course covering electric transformers, rotary and linear machines, steady-state modeling and performance computation, preliminary dimensioning, and testing standardized and innovative techniques. The textbook may be used by R&D engineers in industry as all machine parameters and characteristics are calculated by ready-to-use industrial design mathematical expressions.
