Overview

The field of electrical engineering has become increasingly diversified, resulting in a spectrum of emerging topics - from microelectromechanics to light-wave technology. Keeping pace with progressing technology, and covering the scope of related subjects, Electric Power Systems provides introductory, fundamental knowledge in several areas.The text focuses on three major points:oPower flowoFault calculationsoPower systems stabilityUsing commercially available software packages, Electric Power Systems includes illustrative computer solutions for both utility and industrial systems.C hapters discuss:obasic concepts relating to power and energyoac circuit analysis - emphasizing three-phase circuitsovarious components of a power system and their simplified modelsosingle-line and reactance diagrams representing a power system with the interconnecting componentsopower flowobalanced and unbalanced fault calculationsopower system protectionoanalytical and numerical solutions to power system stability problemsoeconomic power dispatch and control of power systemsWritten in a clear, lively style, Electric Power Systems illustrates its concepts and methods with many examples, inspired by real-life applications. This work exceptionally fills the need for a textbook teaching the subject in a one-semester sequence.
