Textbook(s)/Materials required:
Electric Machinery Fundamentals by Stephen J. Chapman (2011)
MHID: 0073529540 ISBN: 9780073529547

Grading Policy: Maximum points is 150 points divided as follows: two tests 35 points each;
homework and class performance 30 points; and final 50 points. The letter grade will be as
follows: A>90%, B+>80%, B>70%, C+>60%, C>50%.

Homework: Homework is due on Thursdays unless otherwise notified. Occasionally I will give
you a quiz at the beginning of the class based on the homework problems that you are supposed
to have done. Solutions to homework problems may be available on the web. Please, DO NOT
COPY solutions from the web or any other source. This is unethical and unwise. Always
try the problem yourself first. Refer to the solution (if available) ONLY after you have
gotten stuck, and use it only to get unstuck. Getting stuck (finding out what you don’t
know) is an important step in the learning process. Copying solutions will be penalized
beyond the grade of the homework.
Time Requirements: On the average, a full-time student during the Fall or Spring semester takes
courses having a total of 15 credits and study about 45 hours/week. This is equivalent to 2 hours
of study for every hour in class. Therefore, you are expected to allocate 9 hours/week for this
course (including time spent in class).

Other Policies

1. Students should be familiar with NJIT Honor Code. This code will be rigorously
upheld, any violations will be brought to the immediate attention of the
administration.
2. Students are expected to read the listed text sections prior to each lecture period. (See
weekly outline below) .
3. Students are expected to complete the assigned homework problems after each
lecture period.
4. Please use a cover sheet (a copy appears at the end of this outline), with every
homework.
5. At the end of each chapter students should be prepared to discuss their solutions in
class.
6. Regular class attendance is expected.

Assumed Knowledge

 complex number representation and arithmetic,

To practice operations on complex numbers you can download a Matlab program to test
your ability in dealing with complex numbers (it is assumed that you have Matlab
installed on your computer). Go to http://users.ece.gatech.edu/mcclella/matlabGUIs/
scroll down to the section titled ZDrill and download ZDrill to a location where
MATLAB can find it. To use this program, type zdrill at the Matlab prompt “>>”.

 basic DC and sinusoidal steady-state AC electrical circuit analysis: eg. Ohm’s law,
Kirchhoff’s Voltage Law, Kirchhoff’s Current Law, phasor representation of sinusoidal
AC signals, series and parallel impedances, Thevenin's theorem,
 concept of complex, real and reactive power, power triangle (Circuits and Systems I),
 basic Physics, Ampere's law, Faraday's law.
