Modern Electric/Electronic Motors Author: Martin Clifford

Description: Describes the history and growth of motors.

The opening chapter describes the development of the electric motor and the fundamental principals of magnetism. The second chapter details the physical and electrical characteristics of motors in general. The remaining chapters look at the following technologies in detail: dc motors, ac motors, electronics for motors, brushless dc motors, stepping motors, and mechanical drives. This text is intended for the reader with a technical background who wants an understanding of the way motors work. The book is somewhat geared towards the reader who wishes to become involved in motor repair, as it contains sections on troubleshooting for each motor type. However, it is also a good general reference text on motors, although energy efficiency issues are not emphasized. This book can be purchased as an electronic facsimile at www.amazon.com.
