Werner Nuremberg

from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Werner Nürnberg (born March 17, 1909 in Essen , † March 21, 1986 in Berlin-Dahlem ) was a German professor of electrical engineering .

Life

Werner Nürnberg grew up in Saarland . From the summer semester of 1928 he studied at the Faculty of Electrical Engineering at the Technical University of Darmstadt . He completed his knowledge at the Sorbonne in Paris, where he took the opportunity to attend lectures by Marie Curie . After a short detour to the Technical University of Berlin, Nuremberg completed his studies in Darmstadt in December 1932.

From January 1933 Werner Nürnberg began working as a calculation and test field engineer at the AEG large machine factory in Brunnenstrasse in Berlin, which led him to become chief electrician. In March 1944 he received his doctorate from the Technical University of Berlin with a contribution on the asynchronous machine with double cage rotor to become a doctoral engineer. In September 1944 he was drafted into military service. After the end of the war he resumed his work at AEG until, after his habilitation in April 1946, from October of the same year, first as an associate professor and from 1949 as a full professor, he took over the chair for electrical machines at the Technical University of Berlin.

During his ordinariate he published publications on drive technology issues in rolling, problems of the skin effect and other special areas of electrical machines. With his books The Asynchronous Machine and the previously published work The Examination of Electrical Machines (both works were published in several editions by the scientific Springer Verlag), he provided the students and practicing engineers with tools for calculating the asynchronous machine and for testing all common machine types . In addition, he was co-editor of the theoretically oriented specialist journal Archiv für Elektrotechnik (today: Electrical Engineering , Springer-Verlag). On March 31, 1975 he ended his teaching activities and retired as emeritus .

Werner Nürnberg died just four days after his 77th birthday on March 21, 1986 in Berlin. His grave is in the forest cemetery in Zehlendorf .
