Maintaining the reliable and efficient generation, transmission anddistribution of electrical power is of the utmost importance in aworld where electricity is the inevitable means of energyacquisition, transportation, and utilization, and the principlemode of communicating media. Our modern society is entirelydependent on electricity, so problems involving the continuousdelivery of power can lead to the disruption and breakdown of vitaleconomic and social infrastructures.
This book brings together comprehensive technical information onpower system engineering, covering the fundamental theory of powersystems and their components, and the related analyticalapproaches.
Key features:
* Presents detailed theoretical explanations of simple powersystems as an accessible basis for understanding the larger, morecomplex power systems.
* Examines widely the theory, practices and implementation ofseveral power sub-systems such as generating plants, over-headtransmission lines and power cable lines, sub-stations, includingover-voltage protection, insulation coordination as well as powersystems control and protection.
* Discusses steady-state and transient phenomena from basicpower-frequency range to lightning- and switching-surge ranges,including system faults, wave-form distortion and lower-orderharmonic resonance.
* Explains the dynamics of generators and power systems throughessential mathematical equations, with many numericalexamples.
* Analyses the historical progression of power systemengineering, in particular the descriptive methods of electricalcircuits for power systems.
Written by an author with a wealth of experience in the field,both in industry and academia, the Handbook of Power SystemEngineering provides a single reference work for practicingengineers, researchers and those working in industry that want togain knowledge of all aspects of power systems. It is also valuablefor advanced students taking courses or modules in power systemengineering.
