Electrical drives and control for automation

Electrical drives convert electrical energy into mechanical energy and act as a intermediary between electrical supply systems, various energy sources, driven machines and the energy consumer. Electrical drives are major component in industrial applications, driven technical developments and focus of various developments. The core component of every electrical drive is the motor. This book is divided into six modules. Module 1 deals with DC machines, principles of operation, emf equation and armature reaction. Module 2 contain principles of DC motors and their torque-speed characteristics. Module 3 mainly deals with transformers and their efficiency calculations. In module 4, various aspects of induction motors were covered. Module 5 and 6 mainly focusses on split phase and stepper motors. Today electrical drives and their automation has become an essential integral part of every system and process. This book will focus primarily on electrical drives and their control for automation, although some of the topics covered will remain applicable to process control.
