Short courses on the industrial applications of electricity
Details are given of a series of short courses on electrical utilisation which have been developed by the Electroheat Group at Loughborough University over the last decade. Information is also given on typical projects carried out during the courses which illustrate the inter-relationship between industrial electric heating processes and the design of the projects.
