Summary

This textbook is written for electrical engineering programs at higher vocational and technical colleges, with the aim of cultivating high-quality technical and skilled talents. In theoretical content it follows the principle of "sufficiency and emphasis on application," and it highlights "new technologies and large capacity." Grounded in the basic electromagnetic theory of electrical machines, the book replaces the extensive quantitative analysis found in traditional Electrical Machinery textbooks with qualitative analysis, emphasizes the application of basic concepts and conclusions, and strengthens coverage of the structure, abnormal operation, and handling of large power transformers and large synchronous generators. The book covers the basic knowledge, structure, basic electromagnetic theory, operating performance, operation and maintenance methods, and methods for analyzing, diagnosing, and handling abnormal operation for transformers, synchronous generators, asynchronous motors, DC machines, and other types of electrical machines.

Editor's review

This book is a textbook on electric machinery for electrical majors in higher vocational colleges. While maintaining the basic framework of electromagnetic theory, the fourth edition noticeably shifts the focus of exposition: much of the quantitative derivation found in traditional textbooks is condensed into qualitative analysis, and the space is given to understanding basic concepts and to engineering applications of conclusions. This trade-off is quite pragmatic for employment-oriented higher vocational teaching with limited class hours. The book strengthens content on the structure, abnormal operation and handling of large power transformers and large synchronous generators, and highlights the compilation principle of "new technologies, large capacity", bringing the content closer to the actual equipment forms of current power systems. Each chapter is organized around the structure, basic electromagnetic theory, operating performance, operation and maintenance, and abnormal operation analysis of transformers, synchronous generators, asynchronous motors and DC motors, so that after study readers can form a complete chain from principle to operation and maintenance. It is suitable as a classroom textbook for use with experiments and practical training, and also suitable for new corporate employees to fill gaps in basic electric machinery knowledge. When reading, it is advisable to grasp the main line of "structure—principle—operation—maintenance" and not get bogged down in tedious formula derivations.

Who it's for

A good fit for

  • Students of electrical automation, power supply and utilization technology and other majors in higher vocational colleges, using it as a textbook for electric machinery courses
  • New employees in operation and maintenance positions at power enterprises who need a systematic understanding of transformer and generator operation and maintenance knowledge
  • Readers promoted from secondary vocational to higher vocational education who have an average foundation in electromagnetic theory but wish to master engineering application conclusions
  • Candidates preparing for electrical vocational qualifications who need to review basic electric machinery concepts and abnormal handling

Not a good fit for

  • Graduate students in electric machinery or readers engaged in electromagnetic design of electric machinery, for whom the book's quantitative analysis is insufficiently deep
  • Readers who wish to systematically study theoretical derivations such as transient processes of electric machinery and Park's transformation
  • General readers who only want to understand common knowledge about electric machinery and have no electrical foundation, as the terminology threshold is relatively high

Reading tips

  1. First read through the basic concepts and conclusions in each chapter; formula derivations can be skipped, leaving time for operation analysis
  2. Read alongside the physical transformers and motors in the training room, comparing them with the structural diagrams in the book to deepen spatial impressions
  3. Organize the chapters on abnormal operation and handling separately into a comparison table of fault phenomena—causes—handling measures
  4. After finishing each type of electric machinery, do a summary and retell its operating principles and maintenance points in your own words

FAQ

Can I understand this book without a solid foundation in electromagnetics?
Yes. The compilation principle of this book is that theory should be "sufficient for use, with emphasis on application"; much of the quantitative analysis in traditional textbooks has been changed to qualitative analysis, with emphasis placed on basic concepts and the application of conclusions. As long as you have basic circuit knowledge, it is not difficult to follow the book's exposition to understand the operating phenomena of transformers, generators and motors. When encountering formulas, you can skip them first and focus on grasping the conclusions and engineering implications.
What is the difference between this book and undergraduate electric machinery textbooks?
This book is aimed at higher vocational colleges, weakening tedious mathematical derivation and quantitative calculation, strengthening qualitative explanations of basic concepts and engineering applications, and increasing content on the structure, abnormal operation and handling of large power transformers and large synchronous generators, making it closer to the actual needs of operation and maintenance positions; undergraduate textbooks are usually more in-depth in electromagnetic theory and transient analysis.
Is the DC motor content in the book still worth learning?
Yes. Although the share of DC motors in power systems has declined, they are still widely used in industrial drives and control, and their basic electromagnetic theory is also a bridge to understanding other electric machinery. The book introduces the basic knowledge, structure, operating performance and maintenance methods of DC motors; when studying, you can focus on their operating characteristics and maintenance points.
What is a reasonable chapter order for self-study?
It is recommended to study in the order of transformers, asynchronous motors, synchronous generators and DC motors: transformers are the starting point for understanding electromagnetic induction and core structures; asynchronous motors are the most widely used and relatively intuitive in theory; synchronous generator content is more complex and can be studied after acquiring some foundation; DC motors can be reviewed comparatively in light of their operating characteristics.
