A Course in Electrical Engineering Direct Currents, Vol. 1 (Classic Reprint)


Book Description

Excerpt from A Course in Electrical Engineering Direct Currents, Vol. 1 Throughout the text, especially in the treatment of the more abstract portions, attempt has been made to show the ultimate bearing upon general engineering practice. The student takes more interest in the theory when he sees that it can be applied to the solving of practical problems. Because this work is not intended for advanced students in Electrical Engineering, little or no calculus is used and the mathematics is limited to simple equations.

A Course in Electrical Engineering, Vol. 2


Book Description

Excerpt from A Course in Electrical Engineering, Vol. 2: Alternating Currents This volume is intended for those who have such a knowledge of direct currents as is given by Volume I. It presupposes no knowledge of alternating currents. The first two chapters are devoted to the development of the fundamental laws of alter nating currents and alternating-current circuits. Subsequent chapters consider the application of these fundamental laws to alternating-current measurements, to polyphase circuits, to alternating-current machinery, and to power transmission. A chapter on illumination and photometry has been included, as a brief discussion of the underlying principles of light and of light measurements is important in a general course in electrical engineering.

Electrical Engineering Problems, Vol. 1


Book Description

Excerpt from Electrical Engineering Problems, Vol. 1: Part I Direct Current Circuits and Apparatus, Part II Alternating Current Circuits and Apparatus This little book of problems is offered as a system of exercises, suitable for use with any of the available textbooks or with a lecture course. Most of the problems have been used in the classes of the author. A novel feature is the stating of the time needed to perform the actual solving of each problem. This should prove useful not only to the instructor in the assignment of problems, but also to the student as a measure of his own speed. In most of the problems the time given is that which was actually used by an undergraduate student. It will, however, probably be found necessary to allow more time to the average class than is here indicated. Sheets giving the answers to the problems will be provided in such quantities as may be needed, but only to instructors.

The Elements of Direct Current Electrical Engineering (Classic Reprint)


Book Description

Excerpt from The Elements of Direct Current Electrical Engineering The main object of the authors of this work has been to bridge the gap existing between the elementary text-books on magnetism and simple current electricity, Ohm's Law, etc., and so many of the more advanced books which deal with the design point of view. Not only the authors, but also many of their friends, have often found difficulty in recommending to students a book which would, without containing many details of a nature more or less superfluous to the purpose, present in a concise form to second-year students at Universities and Technical Schools the theoretical principles underlying Direct Current Electrical Engineering. No attempt has been made to avoid the use of the Calculus where it simplifies proofs, since it is an essential to all students of engineering but, in this book, only a very elementary knowledge of that subject is demanded.
