POST-GRADUATE STUDENT COURSE

EMANUEL EDUARDO PIRES VAZ

DEDICATORY

In name of Sofia

My first book on transformers was dedicated to my granddaughter; books and papers have followed with dedications to relatives and others. Today the cycle closes up by the seven years old of Sofia with a new number dedicated to

        my granddaughter

INTRODUCTION

 

 

In the chapter "0" we remember certain laws of electromagnetism and the electromagnetic induction: Classical physics is applied. The chapter corresponds to two lessons of the post-graduate course of our university. These lessons are taught as I learned them from my engineering professor who has taught in several universities in the world.

 

 

PREFACE

This book accompanies a life of teaching at various universities in Portugal and abroad at the chair of electric machines and long practice in one of the biggest factories of electric transformers. It is the know-how of the author of this book and the accompanying at the eminent professor who gave the lessons essentially contained in Chapters 3 to 6 - the theory of electric transformers - which are reformulated and properly applied to the needs of the present time. They worked and investigated at the University of Porto.

In the estimated more than 100 000–year history of modern humans, few accomplishment have had as great an impact on the human culture as the development and utilization of electric power. Every aspect of life in modern industrialized nations now depends on electrical power, with more applications being developed daily. Electricity can be generated at a remote location and transmitted to users by power lines, which sets the stage for increasing human contact with electrical energy.

The electric and magnetic theories and laws which accomplish coils and electric transformers are treated and sufficiently well explained in this book; skills in their design and practical electrician calculation are a constant for the practical technician or the engineering student, and for all engineers who need have continuing education.

This author began as nuclear physicist by the Institute of High Culture; in 1974 joined General Tyre as maintenance engineer for seven years and with 105 engineering collaborators a treatise on Preventive Maintenance was written. His experience about transformers for the last 35 years and his teaching activity have become this book in a precious pearl which I do not stop to applaud.
