Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Practical Electricity Seven years in the making, is the record for Practical Elec tricity. Some Of the material was written during the years from 1910 to 1913 for the American Electrician's Handbook, but it developed that the text thus prepared was not suitable for a handbook. Hence, it was stored away temporarily and has been incorporated in the present volume. Since June, 1916, a very considerable portion Of the author's time and effort has been devoted to this work. Practical Electricity was written for certain definite purposes. Primarily, its Object is to present the fundamental facts and theo ries relating to electricity and its present-day applications in a straight-forward, easily-understood way for study by any man, Of little mathematical training, who desires to acquire a working knowledge of the subject. If a man understands arithmetic he should be able to get the meat out of this book. Secondarily, the book was designed for university graduates who desire a medium whereby they can, with minimum efiort, review, refresh and re construct in line with modern theory and practice their concepts Of electric and magnetic phenomena. While it has not been found necessary to use the higher mathematics, the statements and ex planations are technically accurate.

This book was released on 2017-09-13 with total page 408 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Practical Electricity and Magnetism Able courses of instruction in experimental work have already appeared, and have done a vast amount of good; but as these usually require expensive apparatus made and arranged for each experiment, they have not become so generally useful as otherwise might have been the case, especially in! Such instances where the scope of the work undertaken, precludes all possibility of separate and special apparatus being provided for each independent experiment; In technical work this is more particularly the case, seeing that in actual practice a set of instruments must be put to very divergent uses, in order that results may be obtained quickly and with sufficient accuracy for commercial work. This use of apparatus for ends not specially intended, is in itself a training of considerable importance, to any student who will afterwards, in his daily life, have to so adapt for different purposes, such instruments as may be available at the time.

The present volume may be accounted as introductory to the rest of the series. It is divided into short chapters, each dealing with a separate branch of practical electricity. On account of the magnitude Of the subject, the inform ation which they supply is necessarily meagre in character, and is only intended to give a general idea of electrical science and its practical applications. The other volumes of the series treat the more important of the branches here touched upon separately and in detail.

Download or read book Applied Electricity for Practical Men Classic Reprint written by Arthur John Rowland and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2018-03-22 with total page 394 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Applied Electricity for Practical Men This volume has been in the process of making during twenty years' experience in teaching Applied Electricity to practical electrical workers; to men who expect to make direct application of the principles given them in the class room to their daily work with commercial circuits and machinery. It is written wholly from the standpoint of the one who puts up and operates electric circuits and apparatus. It does not touch problems of apparatus design. Pure theory is avoided, except as it has direct bearing upon practical matters. The principles stated and the explana tions of apparatus which are ofiered are only such as are necessary in order to present essential elements. They can be elaborated by the instructor as much as he may see fit. Every teacher understands the importance of numerical prob lems in order to make clear the principles and performance of apparatus. It is with this in mind that the set of problems found at the end of each chapter has been made up. Even though the computations demanded in the solution of many of the problems of this book are not required in everyday practical work, it is important to understand how a thing works; and unless one can make a computation regarding it and figure out a numerical result, no clear conceptions have been secured.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Practical Electricity: Laboratory and Lecture Course, for First Year Students of Electrical Engineering One of the great difficulties experienced by people in mastering the quantitative science of electricity, arises from the fact that we do not number an electrical sense among our other senses, and hence we have no intuitive perception of electrical phenomena. During childhood we did not have years of unconscious experimenting with electrical forces as we had with the forces connected with the sensations of heaviness and lightness, loudness and softness, heat and cold. Beyond a shock or two taken perhaps from some medical galvanic apparatus, or from a Leyden jar, our senses have never been affected by electrical action, and hence we ought to begin the study of electricity as a child begins its early education. Quite an infant has distinct ideas about hot and cold, although it may not be 'able to put its ideas into words, and yet many a student of electricity of mature years has but the haziest notions of the exact meaning of high and low potential, the electrical analogues of hot and cold. That it is desirable that students should learn physics, as they learn to ride the bicycle, by experiment ing themselves, is now generally admitted, and this is especially true in the case of electricity, since it is by experimenting, and only by experimenting, that a student can obtain such a real grasp of electricity that its laws become, so to say, a part of his nature. Hence, in the courses of electricity which I arranged at the City and Guilds of London Technical College, Finsbury, and at their Central Institution, for every hour that a student spends at lecture, he spends several in the laboratory.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Electricity in Modern Life IN this little volume I have endeavored to give a brief but intelligible and connected sketch of the more important of the numerous useful functions fulfilled by Electricity in modern daily life, the scientific principles underlying these practical applications, and the history of their development. It is addressed primarily to readers who have no previous knowledge of the subject, but who wish to know something of what Electricity has been made to do for us, and of how it has been made to do it. I trust, however, that it may also be of some use to students who are just beginning the study of practical Electricity, by giving them a general view of the field of knowledge which they will afterward have to study in detail.

The demand for the book arose from two facts: First these classes, being composed of young men engaged in various occupations Who desired to obtain a, beginner's knowl edge of the principles and arithmetic of applied electricity, were very large; Second - an unsuccessful attempt was made to obtain a book suitable for thoroughly supplementing a combined course of lectures and individual laboratory work. The educational success attained at the Institute, and also at several other schools Which secured the privilege of obtain ing 00pies of the edition, (now exhausted), and the fact that the former situation had. Again to be met, seemed to warrant the preparation of the present volume Which has been entirely re written and several hundred new illustrations introduced.

Download or read book Electricity Experimentally and Practically Applied written by Sydney Whitmore Ashe and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2017-10-16 with total page 390 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Electricity Experimentally and Practically Applied: A Book for the Beginner and for the Practical Man, Principles, Experiments, Practical Applications and Problems Although a number of excellent works on practical electrical engineering are already in use, the author believes there is a place for a volume that will present the subject from an experimental standpoint. For many years the author has taught the subject of electrical engineering by means of experimental lectures and laboratory work to large numbers of practical men. Since these students have often lacked mathematical training, it has been nec essary to explain the subject-matter in a very simple way, showing, wherever possible, its practical features. The same method of presentation has been used in this text, and it is hoped that a much larger audience may thus be reached and benefited. This volume is particularly adapted to courses of instruction given to those engaged in actual electrical work; it should likewise prove useful as a text for high schools and for college laboratory courses.
