The book details the modeling, performance, design, and control of reluctance synchronous and flux-modulation machines developed for low cost and high efficiency. It covers one and three phase reluctance synchronous motors in line-start applications and reluctance flux-modulation motors in pulse width modulation converter-fed variable speed drives.

The third edition of this bestselling textbook incorporates the latest technologies used to save energy and increase productivity, stability, and reliability. It includes new references to key research and development activities, adds nearly 120 new pages covering recent advances, and features two new chapters on advanced scalar control and multiphase electric machine drives. All solved numerical examples have been retained, and 10 MATLAB®¿Simulink® programs remain online to ensure students gain a practical understanding of the subtleties involved in the operation of modern electric drives.
