This book details an approach for realization of the field decomposition concept. The book presents the methods as well as techniques and procedures for establishing electric machine circuit-loops and determining their parameters. The methods developed have been realized using the models of machines with laminated and solid rotor having classical structure. The use of such models are well recognized and simplifies practical implementation of the obtained results.

Includes methods for a construction of electric machine equivalent circuits that allows the replacement of the field models of the machine with simple circuit models
