Theory And Calculation Of Alternating Current Phenomena (1897)

Theory and Calculation of Alternating Current Phenomena is a book written by Charles Proteus Steinmetz in 1897. The book is a comprehensive guide to the theory and calculation of alternating current phenomena, including topics such as sinusoidal alternating currents, harmonic analysis, and the behavior of circuits under different conditions. Steinmetz was a renowned electrical engineer and mathematician who made significant contributions to the development of alternating current technology. In this book, he presents a detailed analysis of the mathematical principles underlying alternating current phenomena and provides practical examples of their application. The book is divided into several chapters, each of which covers a specific topic related to alternating current. The first chapter provides an introduction to the subject and discusses the fundamental principles of alternating current theory. The subsequent chapters delve into more advanced topics such as the behavior of circuits under different conditions, the calculation of power in alternating current circuits, and the use of complex numbers in the analysis of alternating current phenomena. Overall, Theory and Calculation of Alternating Current Phenomena is a classic text that remains relevant to this day. It is an essential resource for electrical engineers, students, and researchers interested in the theory and application of alternating current technology.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
