Three Phase Induction Motor
Three phase induction motor is one of ac machines family. It converts the ac electrical power input into a mechanical power output. The conversion process takes place through the rotating magnetic field. Its theory of operation is based on the mutual electromagnetic induction between the primary circuit and secondary circuit. Three-phase induction motors are the most widely used electric motors in industry. When fed from constant voltage constant frequency they run at nearly constant speed from no-load to full-load. 3-phase induction motors are simple, rugged, low-priced, easy to maintain and can be manufactured with characteristics to suit most industrial requirements. Nowadays, with the development of power semiconductors, induction motors may be considered as serious rivals to dc motors in many speed control systems.

Analysis And Suppression Of Transient Over-Voltages In GIS
In our country a few Gas Insulated Substations (GIS) units have been in operation and large number of units are under various stages of installation. Although GIS have been in operation for several years, some of the problems need attention. These problems include, generation of over voltage during dis-connector operations, line to enclosure faults etc. These over voltages are caused in two ways, viz., due to switching operations of circuit breaker and line to enclosure faults. In the project work, very fast transient over voltages are generated due to switching operations have been analyzed and presented. Since the contact speed of dis-connector switches is low, re-striking occurs many times before the current interruption is completed. Each re-striking generates transient over voltage with different levels of magnitude. Since these transients have traveling wave behavior, they travel to the external systems through enclosures, bushings, cable joints etc., and cause damage to the outside equipment. They can lead to secondary break downs in GIS and may give rise to electromagnetic interference.It is important to develop a suitable simulation models for estimation of these voltages.

Diffraction Optics of Complex-Structured Periodic Media
This book presents recent theoretical and experimental results of localized optical modes and low-threshold lasing in spiral photonic media. Efficient applications of localized modes for low-threshold lasing at the frequencies of localized modes are a central topic of the book's new chapters. Attention is paid to the analytical approach to the problem. The book focuses on one of the most extensively studied media in this field, cholesteric liquid crystals. The chosen model, in the absence of dielectric interfaces, allows to remove the problem of polarization mixing at surfaces, layers and defect structures. It allows to reduce the corresponding equations to the equations for light of diffracting polarization only. The problem concentrates then on the edge and defect optical modes. The possibility to reduce the lasing threshold due to an anomalously strong absorption effect is presented theoretically for distributed feedback lasing. It is shown that a minimumof the threshold-pumping wave intensity can be reached for the pumping wave frequency coinciding with the localized mode frequency (what can be reached for a pumping wave propagating at a certain angle to the helical axes). Analytic expressions for transmission and reflection coefficients are presented. In the present second edition, experimental observations of theoretically revealed phenomena in spiral photonic media are discussed. The main results obtained for spiral media are qualitatively valid for photonic crystals of any nature and therefore may be applied as a guide to investigations of other photonic crystals where the corresponding theory is more complicated and demands a numerical approach. It is demonstrated that many optical phenomena occurring at the frequencies of localized modes reveal unusual properties which can be used for efficient applications of the corresponding phenomena, efficient frequency conversion and low threshold lasing, e.g. For the convenience of the reader, an introduction is given to conventional linear and nonlinear optics of structured periodic media. This book is valuable to researchers, postgraduate, and graduate students active in theoretical and experimental physics in the field of interaction of radiation with condensed matter.

Henri Poincar矇 Electrons to Special RelativityTranslation of Selected Papers and Discussion
Produced by an award-winning translator of Henri Poincar矇, this book contains translations of several seminal articles by Poincar矇 and discusses the experimental and theoretical investigations of electrons that form their context. In the 1950s, a dispute ignited about the origin of the theory of special relativity and thrust considerable notoriety on a paper written by Henri Poincar矇 in 1905. Accordingly, Part I presents the relevant translations of Poincar矇's work showing that radiation carries momentum and the covariance of the equations of electrodynamics, the continuity equation for charge, and the spacetime interval. Part II then discusses investigations by Thomson, Becquerel, and Kaufmann of electrons in diverse contexts; contributions of Abraham, Lorentz and Poincar矇 to a theory of electrons that includes Lorentz transformations and explains the dependence of mass on velocity; and finally, Poincar矇's exploration of the relativity principle, electron stability, and gravitation while rejecting absolute motion (ether) and an electromagnetic origin of mass. Part III contains the 1904 article by H. A. Lorentz presenting his transformations.This book will be a fascinating read to graduate-level students, physicists, and science historians who are interested in the development of electrodynamics and the classical, relativistic theory of electrons at the beginning of the 20th century.
Illuminating Edison
In early January 1878 Amos J. Cummings, editor at the New York Sun newspaper, was provided with a written introduction to soon-to-be-famous inventor Thomas Alva Edison. After visiting Edison at his Meno Park, New Jersey laboratory, Cummings wrote a lengthy article for his paper about the 31-year old inventor and his latest creations, especially the phonograph. The story about Edison went viral, racing across the nation in the pages of other newspapers. It was then picked up by Scientific American Supplement, a popular magazine. Edison's renown was assured. The media coverage also served to attract investors needed to support his research. Over the next three years Cummings and Edison became friends. The Sun journalist wrote seventeen articles about Edison, especially his on-going experiments to create a practical electric light bulb. The "Genie of Menlo Park," as Cummings dubbed him, was featured in still other stories that appeared in the Sun, many of which were then reprinted in other papers. For a time, there was almost weekly press coverage as Edison worked to bring electricity and electric lights to everyday people, even while fending off disparagement from gaslight company executives and rival inventors. It was an exciting time for Sun readers.Illuminating Edison reprints a selection of the Sun stories from those early years of innovation. By the end of 1880, thanks to Edison, the success of electricity and electric lights was assured. Life would never be the same.

Multi Objectief Optimaal Reactief Vermogensplanning
Reactievermogensplanning (RPP) is een van de meest complexe problemen van energiesystemen. RPP maakt verstandig gebruik van de bestaande reactieve stroombronnen en plant een geschikte locatie en grootte van de VAR-compensatie die in een systeem moet worden ge簿nstalleerd om te voldoen aan de eisen van toekomstige belastingsverhogingen om een redelijk spanningsprofiel te behouden onder normale omstandigheden en onvoorziene omstandigheden. RPP vereist de gelijktijdige minimalisatie van twee objectieve functies. De eerste doelstelling betreft het minimaliseren van de bedrijfskosten door het verminderen van het werkelijke vermogensverlies en het verbeteren van het spanningsprofiel. In dit boek is de Fast Voltage Stability Index (FVSI) gebruikt om de zwakke bussen te identificeren voor de planning van het reactieve vermogen. Het resultaat bevestigde een significante afname van de systeemverliezen en een verbetering van de spanningsomvang door het gebruik van FVSI. De test en de rechtvaardiging van het voorgestelde algoritme zijn uitgevoerd op het IEEE 30-bussysteem en het 72-bus Indiase systeem.

The Invisible Rainbow
5g is being rolled out across the country, despite growing evidence that it is disruptive to our health, our safety, and the environment. The Invisible Rainbow is the groundbreaking story of electricity as it's never been told before--exposing its very real impact on the biosphere and human health. 100,000 copies sold! Over the last 220 years, society has evolved a universal belief that electricity is 'safe' for humanity and the planet. Scientist and journalist Arthur Firstenberg disrupts this conviction by telling the story of electricity in a way it has never been told before--from an environmental point of view--by detailing the effects that this fundamental societal building block has had on our health and our planet. In The Invisible Rainbow, Firstenberg traces the history of electricity from the early eighteenth century to the present, making a compelling case that many environmental problems, as well as the major diseases of industrialized civilization--heart disease, diabetes, and cancer--are related to electrical pollution. "Few individuals today are able to grasp the entirety of a scientific subject and present it in a highly engaging manner . . . Firstenberg has done just that with one of the most pressing but neglected problems of our technological age."--BRADLEY JOHNSON, MD, Amen Clinic, San Francisco "[A] masterpiece."--Celia Farber, investigative journalist "This seminal book...will transform your understanding ...of the environmental and health effects of electricity and radio frequencies"--Paradigm Explorer
The Inventions- Researches- and Writings of Nikola Tesla
The early works of famed inventor Nikola Tesla, and a source of inspiration for generations of innovators. At the time it was first published in 1893, The Inventions, Researches, and Writings of Nikola Tesla was considered the bible of electrical engineering and inspired generations of inventors. This volume, edited by Tesla's contemporary, Thomas Commerford Martin, includes extensive discussion of Tesla's early work and inventions and contains more than 300 illustrations that demonstrate the practical application of his ideas. Tesla, who was born in what is now Croatia, is best known for his research into the use of high-frequency alternating currents and wireless transmission. Many of his ideas have found practical application in the modern world, and he continues to be a source of inspiration and fascination to this day.
Reverse Engineering of the Deep-cycle Automotive Battery
What if you could charge a battery while discharging it to a load source? In Reverse Engineering of the Deep-Cycle Automotive Battery, Frank Earl argues that it is possible. Taking a different approach than he did in his first book-Miracle Auto Battery-he explains how it can be done. He also evaluates what others, including Richard A. Perez, author of The Complete Battery Book, have said about charging batteries. He explores critical topics, such as - how fixation on the chemical structure of the battery has overshadow the fact that its mechanical structure is just as important as its chemical structure when it comes to new battery technology. - what role a battery's mechanical structure plays in its cycling processes; - why it is possible to charge a deep-cycle automotive battery even as it is powering a vehicle; and - what role reverse engineering plays in improving battery life. Imagine how different the world would be if we could switch between the charging and discharging process of the deep-cycle automotive battery without having to stop one cycling process to start the other-and discover how to make it a reality.
The Grid
One of Bill Gates's Favorite Books of 2016 A revelatory look at our national power grid--how it developed, its current flaws, and how it must be completely reimagined for our fast-approaching energy future. America's electrical grid, an engineering triumph of the twentieth century, is turning out to be a poor fit for the present. It's not just that the grid has grown old and is now in dire need of basic repair. Today, as we invest great hope in new energy sources--solar, wind, and other alternatives--the grid is what stands most firmly in the way of a brighter energy future. If we hope to realize this future, we need to reimagine the grid according to twenty-first-century values. It's a project which forces visionaries to work with bureaucrats, legislators with storm-flattened communities, moneymen with hippies, and the left with the right. And though it might not yet be obvious, this revolution is already well under way. Cultural anthropologist Gretchen Bakke unveils the many facets of America's energy infrastructure, its most dynamic moments and its most stable ones, and its essential role in personal and national life. The grid, she argues, is an essentially American artifact, one which developed with us: a product of bold expansion, the occasional foolhardy vision, some genius technologies, and constant improvisation. Most of all, her focus is on how Americans are changing the grid right now, sometimes with gumption and big dreams and sometimes with legislation or the brandishing of guns. The Grid tells--entertainingly, perceptively--the story of what has been called "the largest machine in the world" its fascinating history, its problematic present, and its potential role in a brighter, cleaner future.

Shocking Bodies
From electric corsets to questioning the existence of God, the story of the profound effects electricity had upon the lives and the worldview of the Victorians Although electricity was known about by the ancient Egyptians, it was not until the Victorian era that its potential really began to be realized. Luigi Galvani's discovery of bioelectricity opened up a whole new world of possibilities, in which it could cure sickness, restore sexual potency, and even raise the dead. This book explores how the Victorians thought about electricity, and how they tried to use it to answer the fundamental questions about life and death. It discusses the beliefs they came into being about electricity--some believed that it was life, which brought into question the existence of the soul, and of God, and provided arguments in favor of political Radicalism. Doctors prescribed electrical therapy and the masses were offered electric belts or corsets, at a price, that were claimed to have amazing restorative properties. This is the story of how electricity emerged during the 19th century as a powerful new tool for making sense of the world.
Findings on Elasticity
The second issue in the exciting and experimental cross-disciplinary series Findings on... by Astrid van Baalen and Hester Aardse from the Pars Foundation is centred on ELASTICITY in the broadest sense of the word.What happens when one gives a simple rubber band to an architect, historian, choreographer, chemist, artist, mathematician, physicist, economist, anthropologist, and geologist and asks each of them for a statement on elasticity? The economist studies the elasticity of supply and demand of market forces. The architect calculates the elasticity of the steel structure of a building during an earthquake. The anthropologist studies the flow of people returning to their homes in the wake of a natural disaster. The choreographer pushes the elasticity of his dancers' movements as they rehearse a new dance. The Pars Foundation draws researchers out of their specialized niches in order to publish their brilliant, crazy, important, or bewildering results and assembles them in this interdisciplinary volume. Findings on Elasticity is the second part of a publication series that together will constitute an atlas of creative thinking. There are no guidelines for the form their contributions must take. It may be images, poems, essays, sketches on coasters, formulas, a piece of sculpture or a piece of string; the editors only ask that a contribution reflect the respondent's own field as well as his or her passion for the topic.
