Electric Drives and Power Electronics. Chapters 1 and 2

摘要

Chapter one gives an overview of the history of electric drives and machineproduction. It studies electromagnetic induction, construction of an electric motor, possibilities of using an electric motor, and the power control of an electric motor. The aim is to give a simple and meaningful thinking model of power electronics. The use of switches in power conversion is introduced. The purpose is to create both a theoretical and practical basis of using power electronics by concentrating on the essential in the form of ideal switch conversion techniques.
