Power Systems Analysis 2/ed

Keeping pace with the major changes in the structure and operation of the electric utility industry, this is the first text on power system analysis that explores the issues shows how power system operation will be effected by the changes in the industry. It incorporate state-of-the-art, computer-based power system analysis and shows students how to apply each modern analysis tool in designing and improving an expansion of an existing power system. Features : Describes the new market environment of the electric utility industry. Emphasizes computer applicaton and designand reflects current industry practice. A computer-based designed problem dealing with the calculations of transmission line parameters in introduced in chapter 3 and continued in each successive chapter. Students can use available software or develop software using MATLAB. A new chapter on netwrok matrices, their construction and manipulation. Many additional worked-out examples and problems-Includes several problems which can be solved using MATLAB. Clearly stated objectives and explanation of materal without sarificing necessary rigor and understanding.
