5.0 out of 5 stars
Outstanding Book.,
By A Customer
This review is from: ELECTRIC DRIVES: CONCEPTS AND APPLICATIONS (Paperback)
I found this book to be superbly written. The author covers all aspects of thyrister controlled converters and inverters. He has tremendous knowledge of the subjet.After reading this book, I've come to completely understand particular characteristics of electric motors. Some examples are: the four quadrant operation of motors; dynamic and regenerative braking, and the difference between the two; and voltage control of motors. Although I've worked with wound rotor motors I've never seen one with a "slip power energy recovery scheme". This book details such schemes which is very interesting. The cycloconverter is shown throughout this book which I find extremely interesting. Siemens uses the cycloconverter in their marine electric propulsion systems. I now know more about the cycloconverter. This is one outstanding book.
4.0 out of 5 stars
Not a bad book,
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: ELECTRIC DRIVES: CONCEPTS AND APPLICATIONS (Paperback)
Certainly not a bad reference book. However, if you'd like a primer on variable frequency drives, I would recommend Electric Motors and Drives: Fundamentals, Types and Applications by Austin Hughes.
