Part of the two-volume Electric Generators Handbook, Synchronous Generators provides a comprehensive reference for the topologies, modeling, control, design, and testing of standard and emerging synchronous generator systems. The first three chapters provide the general background material, including basic performance equations and practical dynamic models and transfer functions. The rest of the book focuses on the many facets of synchronous generators and is dedicated to electric machine and power systems. It includes an extensive treatment of the doubly fed induction generator/motor. The presentation is filled with illustrations, numerical examples, and sample results.
