Electrical engineers from several universities in seven European countries share knowledge about electrical power systems that reflects the experience and tradition in that school. In sections on powe
This book addresses a broad category of power system engineers. The editor's previous book,Handbook of Power Electrical Systems Dynamics: Modeling, Stability, and Controlexplained the background, caus
This book provides a broad perspective of vacuum switchgear drawn from the author's many years of experience in this field. Allan Greenwood describes the development of the technology from the earlies
A thorough theoretical and mathematical treatment of the principles underlying both induction and conduction heating, though the discussion of practical aspects fills nearly half the book. The emphasi
Few power systems are isolated from the effects of high voltage DC transmission, and this technology figures prominently in their planning and operation. This new text, written by one of the world's l
SF 6 is a colorless, odorless, tasteless, non-toxic gas (down to -20 degrees C) which has nearly ideal properties as an arc-quenching medium. Ryan and Jones (electrical engineering, Sunderland Polytec
Since the first edition of this book in 1983, HVDC technology has continued to develop and few power systems can now escape its influence. Fully revised, updated and expanded, this second edition buil
Covers all the elements of electricity economics and planning, both for the traditional approach and for the new developments of the 1990s, e.g. privatization, competition, deregulation, and more effi
This book explains the hazards associated with electricity in its many forms, including electromagnetic radiation. It describes methods of reducing risks to health and to the environment, giving rules
For electrical engineers, considers the creation and maintenance of a power supply that will not cause the loss of data or damage to sensitive equipment (particularly computers) by taking a break or g
For both students of electrical engineering and practicing engineers, sets out statistical methods which can be used in the preparation, execution, evaluation, and interpretation of experiments of a r
A valuable study tool for students and a solid reference for professionals, Instantaneous Power Theory and Applications to Power Conditioning presents a review of power theories and shows that the ins
The book is composed of 12 chapters and three appendices, and can be divided into four parts. The first part includes Chapters 2 to 7, which discuss the concepts, models, methods and data in probabili
The book is written as primer hand book for addressing the fundamentals of smart grid. It provides the working definition the functions, the design criteria and the tools and techniques and technology
Fuel cell technology is developing at a rapid pace, thanks to the increasing awareness of the need for pollution-free power sources. An essential tool for understanding how to interface a fuel cell p
