·  Provides a concise, practical, and understandable discussion of the many facets of transformers

·  Explores many real-world power engineering problems

·  Reflects the present state of the technology

·  Provides details of specific embodiments of power transformation

·  Includes tables, charts, photographs, and equations that facilitate the reader's understanding of the technical material

Covering the fundamental theory of electric power transformers, this book provides the background required to understand the basic operation of electromagnetic induction as applied to transformers. The book is divided into three fundamental groupings: one stand-alone chapter is devoted to Theory and Principles, nine chapters individually treat major transformer types, and fourteen chapters cover many ancillary topics associated with power transformers. Throughout the book, tables, charts, photographs, and equations describe the operation and performance of power transformers and facilitate the reader's understanding of the technical material.

Twenty of the 24 chapters in this power transformer handbook are revised versions of chapters published in the Electric power engineering handbook (2001). Nine of the chapters review the design, connection, operation, and performance testing of specific types of transformers, such as phase-shifting transformers, rectifier transformers, and step-voltage regulators. Other topics include insulating media, electrical bushings, load tap changers, transformer protection, the causes and effects of transformer sound levels, and online monitoring of liquid-immersed transformers.Copyright © 2004 Book News, Inc., Portland, OR
