Synopsis
Excerpt from Dynamos, Motors, Alternators, and Rotary Converters
The present edition of Mr. Kapp's work, published originally in England, is a translation of the third German edition, which has been revised and much enlarged by the author. In this edition reference to stationary transformers has been omitted, since the matter has been fully dealt with in a separate work by the author.
The third edition further differs from the previous ones in the more thorough treatment of sparking in direct-current machines, of magnetic leakage, of direct-current armature windings, and of the excitation and compounding of such machines.
The armature windings and armature reactions of alternators have also been much more fully dealt with. The chapters dealing with rotary field motors and rotary converters arc new, as is also the theory of the hunting of parallel-coupled alternators.
This book is further supplemented from the practical standpoint by the author's work entitled "Dynamo Construction: Electrical and Mechanical."
Mr. Kapp has endeavoured to present the calculations in as simple a form as possible, and, above all, to substitute where practicable graphical for analytical methods, or at least to employ both.
It will be observed that the book is intended particularly for technical readers, and contains practical suggestions of great value, enabling the problems which present themselves in the design of machines to be dealt with with all the accuracy needed in practice. On the other hand, no extremely long calculation will be found in it, nor any not having an immediate application.
The author regards the factors to be taken into account in the design of a dynamo as being too numerous to permit of the introduction of all into the calculation, which can consequently only be an approximation, and considers it useless to strive to attain a fancied exactitude. The author's methods and skill in approximations cannot fail to appea…

Dynamos, Motors, Alternators, and Rotary Converters (Classic Reprint)
Print on DemandSeller: Forgotten Books, London, United Kingdom
Seller rating 5 out of 5 stars
Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book, a comprehensive study of dynamos, motors, alternators, and rotary converters, is a valuable exploration of the principles and applications of these electrical machines. Beginning with an examination of the fundamental principles, it follows their development and their application in industrial settings. The book provides a comprehensive overview of the field, covering topics such as the generation of electricity from mechanical energy, electromagnetic induction, armature windings, and commutation. It also delves into the theory and practice of alternating currents, synchronous motors, and rotary converters. Exploring the historical evolution of these machines, the author traces their journey from the early discoveries of Faraday and Pixii to the sophisticated devices used in modern power systems. The book's insightful explanations and practical examples make it both educational and useful for engineers and students alike. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book. print-on-demand item. Seller Inventory # 9781330475911_0
