Dynamic Simulations of Electric Machinery: Using MATLAB/SIMULINK Paperback – 6 November 1997

I don't think I'd want to try to teach a class from this book. I'd definitely use some material from this for creating labs in Matlab.I like this book for a reference as a professional. Lots of equations, lots of pictures, lots of functional block diagrams to knit the equations together. However, this book is dedicated to machines, not power systems. Generally for power systems you use a canned model of a generator or motor. This book is helpful for understanding the underlying model, but is not targeted to power SYSTEM simulation.(such as one would do with PSS/E or PowerFactory, or PSCAD). Still I consider it a useful addition to my library when I have to go back and understand the underlying details of the machine.To the guy who gave this one star because he didn't get the disk with the book....I found the code on the mathworks website and downloaded it (30 seconds elapsed time from the point I said "I know its out there somewhere...")

Good!

I bought the book and when I received it I found out out that it is not an original book. It is a good quality photocopy. Some people make a photocopy of books and try to sell it as new books. The orginal book comes with a CD. on This photocopied book , they did copy the CD icon on the top left corner of the front cover. On the front cover of The orginal book they mentione that there is a CD that comes with the book.

I like it but there are no magic solutions. In summary the course consists of 200 pages of exercises starting with simple "2nd" intervals in the key of C major all the way up to - well as hard as you like really. It's about putting in the work (e.g. 5 minutes a day) but my sight reading confidence has improved already after a few weeks. Definitely worth the effort. It was recommended to me by the Kerry Beaumont, the Director of Music at Coventry Cathedral who is nothing short of a musical genious.

Don't despair if you order a copy of this book and it comes without a CD ROM. The Matlab and Simulnk Programs can be downloaded from Mathworks Web Site. Just look for this book among the long list of Matlab related books listed on Mathwork's Web Site. There you will find a link enabling you to download the Matlab m files and the Simulink mdl files.
