Accurate knowledge of electromagnetic power system transients is crucial to the operation of an economic, efficient and environmentally friendly power systems network without compromising on the reliability and quality of Electrical Power Supply. Electromagnetic transients simulation (EMTS) has become a universal tool for the analysis of power system electromagnetic transients in the range of nanoseconds to seconds. This book provides a thorough review of EMTS and many simple examples are included to clarify difficult concepts. This book will be of particular value to advanced engineering stud

In a highly capital-intensive environment such as the electricity supply industry, it is essential that those working in the electrical power field - on either the engineering or management side - understand the methodologies of evaluating projects in order to fully comprehend and analyse investment proposals and decisions. This new book, a substantially revised and updated edition of the author s previous work ’Financial and Economic Evaluation of Projects in the Electricity Supply Industry’ (IEE/1996), takes a broad introductory approach and includes extensive consideration of ma

This book contains the latest development technologies in the area of Power Systems. Deals with the deep-rooted linkages between existing and emerging concerns faced by distributed energy resources and their integration DESCRIPTION The conventional power system around the world is facing the problems of gradual depletion of fossil fuel resources, poor energy efficiency and environmental pollution. This has lead to the recent trend of generating power at distribution voltage level from renewable/non-conventional, small scale distributed energy resources (DERs) to culminate the advantages of i

One of the great pioneers of electrical science, Oliver Heaviside (1850-1925) was a self-educated, fiercely independent genius who cared nothing for social or mathematical conventions. Among many achievements, he showed how to rid telephone lines of distortion and put Maxwell’s wonderful but hitherto inaccessible theory of electromagnetism into its modern form. In his writings, and in life, he was always provocative, often amusing, sometimes infuriating, but never dull. This is a compelling account of Heaviside’s life with a powerful insight into his scientific thinking and why it

An understanding of the basic concepts of quality and its management is essential for the professional management of Quality of Service (QoS) in telecommunications. As people increasingly rely on the new services for their lifestyle and work, their expectations for high reliability and quality are bound to rise. QoS is therefore likely to become a major differentiator in a highly competitive telecommunications market. This book is an important contribution to the published material in this field and is essential reading for all those interested in QoS issues.Also available:World Telecommunicat
