Power Devices & Systems Textbooks: Electric Machines

[vg19]

Hi,

I am taking a Power Devices and Systems course and I am looking for a good textbook. The type of circuits/machines we are covering are:
Power circuits; transformers; magnetic circuits; three phase connections; single
phase motors; polyphase machines; synchronous generators and motors; induction
motors; dc motors; design of industrial systems.


And the course objectives are:
To analyse, model, and predict the performance of power devices and systems including
singlephase and balanced three-phase systems, transformers, and ac generators and
motors. To measure the parameters for these models using standard tests.


Any good book reccomendations?

Thanks in advance!

As a scientist in the field of power devices and systems, I would recommend the textbook "Electric Machines" by Charles A. Gross and Thaddeus A. Roppel. This textbook covers all the topics mentioned in your course objectives and provides a comprehensive understanding of power circuits, transformers, magnetic circuits, and various types of motors and generators. It also includes practical examples and exercises to help you apply the concepts learned in the course. Another great textbook is "Electric Machinery Fundamentals" by Stephen J. Chapman, which covers similar topics in a clear and concise manner. Both of these textbooks are widely used in universities and have received positive reviews from students and professors. I hope this helps in your search for a good textbook. Good luck with your course!
