Power Systems Analysis (Oxford Higher Education)

Power Systems Analysis provides a thorough understanding of the principles and techniques of power system analysis and their application to real-world problems. Beginning with basic concepts, the book gives an exhaustive coverage of transmission line parameters, symmetrical and unsymmetrical fault analysis and power flow studies. The book includes separate chapters on state estimation, stability analysis and contingency analysis and also provides an introduction to HVDC and FACTS. Relevant topics such as power quality and power management are also dealt with. The book extensively illustrates the use of MATLAB in the analysis of power systems. With its lucid style of presentation, the book should be useful to both students and practicing engineers.
