CHAPTER 1 Introduction
1. The Subject Matter: Why Does it Matter?
The subject of the monograph is power in electrical circuits and transmission networks. The author examines the many mathematical representations of the electrical power concept.
Electrical power is the subject of power theory, which is an important discipline in electrical engineering. No discipline can be successfully investigated without knowing its history; for this reason, the monograph reflects the development of the power concept in its historical context. The development of power theory is tightly connected with the history of science and developments of two important schools of thought: Continental Electrodynamics and Faraday-Maxwell Electromagnetism.
Power phenomena ...
