Handbook on Fundamentals of Electromagnetic Theory

Document from the year 2018 in the subject Engineering - Power Engineering grade: 1 Jain University language: English abstract: Electromagnetic Theory plays an important role in modernizing human life and encompasses wide areas such as: generation transmission and distribution of electrical power digital systems satellite communications signal processing robotics mechatronics computer control artificial intelligence and networks.A four year engineering curriculum normally contains various modules of electromagnetic field theory. However some curricula do not have enough slots to accommodate the two modules. This book is designed for undergraduate students to provide fundamental knowledge of electromagnetic fields and waves in a structured manner. A comprehensive fundamental knowledge of electric and magnetic fields is required to understand the working principles of generators motors and transformers. This knowledge is also necessary to analyze transmission lines substations insulator flash over mechanism transient phenomena etc.This book is written in a simple way so that the students will find it easy to understand the electromagnetic field theory and its applications. Several worked out examples are included to enhance the understanding of electromagnetic field theories. Each chapter also includes several practice problems with answers given at the end of the book which would facilitate students' understanding.
