A revised and updated text that explores the fundamentals of the
physics of electric power handling systems The revised and updated
second edition of Electric Power Principles: Sources, Conversion,
Distribution and Use offers an innovative and comprehensive
approach to the fundamentals of electric power. The author - a
noted expert on the topic - provides a thorough grounding in
electric power systems, with an informative discussion on per-unit
normalisations, symmetrical components and iterative load flow
calculations. The text covers the most important topics within the
power system, such as protection and DC transmission, and examines
both traditional power plants and those used for extracting
sustainable energy from wind and sunlight. The text explores the
principles of electromechanical energy conversion and magnetic
circuits and synchronous machines - the most important generators
of electric power. The book also contains information on power
electronics, induction and direct current motors. This new second
edition includes: A new chapter on energy storage, including
battery modeling and how energy storage and associated power
electronics can be used to modify system dynamics Information on
voltage stability and bifurcation The addition of Newton's Method
for load flow calculations Material on the grounding transformer
connections added to the section on three phase transformer An
example of the unified power flow controller for voltage support
Written for students studying electric power systems and electrical
engineering, the updated second edition of Electric Power
Principles: Sources, Conversion, Distribution and Use is the
classroom-tested text that offers an understanding of the basics of
the physics of electric power handling systems.
