Nikola Tesla Books
Tesla, Nikola. "On the Dissipation of the Electrical Energy of the Hertz Resonator," Electrical World - N. Y., Jan. 6, 1893, pp. 271, 272. (Tesla refers with admiration to vibrating diaphram experiments by Prof. Bjerknes at Paris Exposition in 1889. Dissipation of energy of oscillator and resonator immersed in air might appropriately be called "electric sound waves or sound waves of electrified air." See also Electrician, Nov. 18, 1892, p. 69.) (p)
"Tesla's Experiments," Electrical World - N. Y., Jan. 6, 1893, p. 265. (Editorial article published in this issue by Mr. Tesla indicates that air by no means possesses the convenient properties usually assigned to it.) (p)
Tesla, Nikola. "Alternate Current of High Potential & High Frequency," Electrical Engineer - N. Y., Jan. 11, 1893, p. 35 (editorial); Jan. 11, 1893, pp. 42-44 (I); Jan. 18, 1893, pp. 65, 66 (II); Jan. 25, 1893, pp. 88-90 (III). (Text of lecture given before the Royal Insitution of Great Britain, Feb. 4, 1892.) (p)
Tesla, Nikola. "The Ewing High Frequency Alternator & Parsons Steam Engine," Electrical World - N. Y., Jan. 21, 1893, p. 50. (Tesla states that he has also considered the thought of combining the identical steam turbine with a high frequency alternator. See also Electrician - London, Dec. 17, 1892, p. 391.) (p)
"Transmission of Power by Alternating Currents," Electrical Review - N. Y., Jan. 21, 1893, p. 261. (Refers to Tesla patent application of 1888, in which poles of motor are less than the number of poles in the generator, permitting the motor to be operated at low speed.) (p)
"High Tension Experiments by Tesla and Others," Electrical Review - N. Y., Jan. 28, 1893, p. 274. (Editorial mention of Dr. Schoentjes experiments, in this issue, in which some of Tesla's results are reproduced.) (p)
"Tesla's Experiments Simplified," Electrical Review - N. Y., Jan. 28, 1893, p. 275. (Letter to editor refers to simplified arrangement of circuits and apparatus by Prof. Schoentjes, by which Mr. Tesla's experiments may be repeated.) (p)
Woodbury, C. J. H. "Electrical Transmission of Power for Mills," Cassiers Magazine - London, Feb., 1893, pp. 274-278. (Mentioned the Tesla motor which has been in use in the Westinghouse shops.) (p)
Tesla, Nikola. "The Physiological Effects of High Frequency Currents," Electrical Engineer - N. Y., Feb. 1, 1893, p. 122. (Refers to Elect. Engr. of Jan. 25, 1893, article by Mr. A. A. C. Swinton experiments with high frequency currents. Says Swinton and others are not completely original in observations.) (p)
"Honors to Nikola Tesla from King Alexander I, of Serbia," Electrical Engineer - N. Y., Feb. 1, 1893, p. 125. (King Alexander of Serbia has created Mr. Tesla a Grand Officer of the Order of St. Sava.) (p)
