About the Book

Encouraged by the response to the first edition and to keep pace with recent developments, Fundamentals of Electrical Drives, Second Edition incorporates greater details on semi-conductor controlled drives, includes coverage of permanent magnet AC motor drives and switched reluctance motor drives, and highlights new trends in drive technology. Contents were chosen to satisfy the changing needs of the industry and provide the appropriate coverage of modern and conventional drives. With the large number of examples, problems, and solutions provided, Fundamentals of Electrical Drives, Second Edition will continue to be a useful reference for practicing engineers and for those preparing for Engineering Service Examinations.
