The Testing of Continuous Current Machines in Laboratories and Test-Rooms: A Practical Work for Students and Engineers (1905) - Tapa dura

Reseña del editor

This work originated in a number of written instructions for making experiments in the machine-laboratories, which I used to give my students at the Municipal School of Technology in Manchester. The success which I had with these instructions has induced me to publish them in a completed and enlarged form. Thus the work is intended for students at technical colleges and schools. I ts purpose is to prepare the student for his laboratory work, to explain the purpose of the various experiments, and to give him exact instructions for carrying them out. Special stress has been laid on the introduction of characteristic examples; my experience has taught me that in most cases it is not so much the carrying out of an experiment, as its application for practical purposes, that offers the most difficulties to students. The work is further intended both for electrical and mechanical engineers, who are engaged in test-room work, or in installing, starting, and supervising electrical machinery. With this object I have kept it more elementary than would probably have been necessary for advanced students.
