Focusing on the mechanical design of modern electric motors, the book: Details the design and .

Rapid increases in energy consumption and emphasis on environmental protection have posed challenges for the motor industry, as has the design and manufacture of highly efficient, reliable, cost-effective, energy-saving, quiet, precisely controlled, and long-lasting electric motors.

Suitable for motor designers, engineers, and manufacturers, as well as maintenance personnel, undergraduate and graduate students, and academic researchers, Mechanical Design of Electric Motors provides in-depth knowledge of state-of-the-art design methods and developments of electric motors. From motor classification, design of motor components, model setup, and material and bearing selections to power losses, motor cooling, design integration, vibration, and acoustic noise, this comprehensive text covers the fundamentals, practical design and design-related issues, modeling and simulation, engineering analysis, manufacturing processes, testing procedures, and performance characteristics of electric motors today.

Focusing on the mechanical design of modern electric motors, the book:

Details the design and manufacture of major components and subsystems, such as rotors, shafts, stators, and frames Reviews various cooling techniques, including forced air, liquid, and phase-change Discusses the analysis and calculation of motor power losses Addresses motor vibration and acoustic noise issues Presents engineering analysis methods and case study results Emphasizes construction, optimization, and applications

Featuring re from the author’s own personal experience and the significant contributions of others, Mechanical Design of Electric Motors highlights innovative and advanced electric motors developed in recent decades.

It is ok!

Someone wrote the first and only review, giving a "5-Star" rating, and writing these three words "It is ok." I simply could not hold myself and I wrote a comment on that review.

It seems that, I as an Electric Power Engineer (now retired) owe it to the author that I should express my genuine feelings and thoughts about this uniquely wonderful, really great, exceptionally useful, First-one of its kind, destined to be the most respectable textbook as well as the reference book for the Electrical/Mechanical Engineers who design and manufacture not only the Electric Motors, but any electric machine. As a matter of fact, the event of publication of this book should have been hailed as the first one of the most significant publications in the entire history of manufacturing of Electrical Power Machines.

If amazon.com had a rating system which went from "1-star" to "100-Stars", I would have chosen "200-stars"! Ever since i graduated with my
B. S.(EE) and B.S. (ME) (in 1962-63), I have fallen in love with Electric Machines. I taught EE for 7 & 1/2 years, came to U.S.A. to earn my
M.S. (EE) in 1971-1973 (while I was working full time with a consulting company). But the love for Electric Machines was inspired by two wonderful teachers: one was Mr. "B. P. K". in India who introduced me to "Tensors" and to the works of Dr. Gabriel Kron, and the other was Prof. Dr. Jerome Meisel at the Wayne State University, Detroit, Michigan. Dr. Meisel has authored a wonderful textbook, "Principles of Electromechanical - Energy Conversion" which was published by McGraw-Hill Book Company in 1966.

I am fully aware that the reader of this review is not at all interested in knowing about a part of my "autobiography", he really wants to know about the book being reviewed. I apologize for being long-worded, but I just wanted to give you my credentials for reviewing this book.

I wish I had a much better and bigger vocabulary and a really good command in English language to praise this unique, most probably the First book of its kind. The author has done a singularly great service to the entire Electrical Power Engineering Community by writing this book. It is probably the most important publication which is destined to be the First and the Best reference book for the Electrical (Power) Engineers and Mechanical Engineers dealing not only with Electrical Motors but any Electric Power Machine. The author deserves a few good awards from the well-known Institutions; certainly from IEEE and other Big name Institutions, as well as from the World-Class Big and Famous Companies (such as G.E., and Asea Brown-Bovery - to name a few) manufacturing Electrical Motors. I will not be surprised to see additional awards coming from big Universities.. It is a wonder that no professor or/and practicing Electrical/Mechanical Engineer has written a review of this great book. I feel very sad about the state in which the Electrical (Power) Engineers have sunk! I also feel sad and angry at the apathy of the E. P. Engineers. and the professors! I feel as if I am crying in the wilderness! This great book was published in 2014, and until today, there was a "5-Stars", three words -long review!

This is a 702+ page long book. It has 12 chapters, with an excellent list of the references at the end of each chapter. The publisher's summary: "Focused on the design, analysis, construction, optimization, and applications of electric motors, this book can be used for regular or advanced mechanical engineering courses. Mechanical Design of Electric Motors offers re based on the personal experience of the author as well as significant research contribution of others. It provides mechanical engineers and students in(/)of energy conversion industries with comprehensive design techniques and practical approaches in the design of electric motors."

From the preface, in the Author's words: " ........most available books on electric motors in the market focus primarily on electromagnetic design rather than mechanical design. After a long unsuccessful search, one day I was suddenly struck with a thought: Why not write this book myself? This thought has inspired me to embark on the arduous task of compiling recent developments and advances in the mechanical design of electric motors into one book."

"........ the design, development, and implementation of modern electric motors still pose challenges for motor engineers and designers. This is because they involve a wide variety of disciplines, such as mechanics, electromagnetics, electronics, fluid and solid dynamics, heat transfer, material science, tribology, acoustics, control theory, manufacturing technologies, and engineering economics, to name a few. ......."

The author's name is Dr. Wei Tong. He "... currently serves as Chief Engineer at Kollmorgen Corporation, a subsidiary of Danaher Corporation. ....
Dr. Tong received his PhD. from the University of Minnesota in 1989 and MBA from State University of New York at Albany in 1999. ............ "

I am writing this review (it has taken some time and effort), because as an Electrical Power Engineer (now retired), I have a moral and ethical duty, and privilege to thank the author and applaud his book as much as I can. May he forgive the persons who should have reviewed and lavishly praised the book and its author. The great pioneering Electrical/Mechanical Engineers in the late 19th. century to all the great engineers today and the coming decades will be proud of Dr. Tong and his book.

I would like to recommend the author, the publisher, and the agents to develop and execute a plan to publish a relatively inexpensive, but a good quality (preferably a Hardcover) edition of this book for sale in India, Pakistan, Afghanistan, Burma, Sri Lanka and similar countries where this can be bought by many EE/ME. At the listed current price, only a few universities there may be willing to buy this book.

I hope you will read this review completely, and agree with me. This book is worth its weight in gold.
