Abstract
A general principle applicable to all physical systems in which mass is neither created nor destroyed is the , which states that energy is neither created nor destroyed; it is merely changed in form. This principle, together with the laws of electric and magnetic fields, thermodynamics, electric and hydraulic circuits, and Newtonian mechanics, is a convenient means for finding the characteristic relationships of electromechanical energy coupling. Energy required to operate building systems can be stored in thermal storage; electrochemical, passive electric elements; and coupling fields.
