From the Back Cover

A MASTER CLASS IN OPTIMIZING ELECTRICITY FLOW

Prevent across-the-grid failures, as well as localized brownouts and blackouts, and accurately anticipate future usage with this rigorous tutorial on load flow analysis. Expert Lynn Powell's Power System Load Flow Analysis breaks the complex tasks involved in mathematical modeling of complicated power grids into short segments, making the computational tools of this trade easier to grasp and use. This text derives well-known major algorithms, and shows you how they are deployed in powerful software. Here's all the help you need to:

  • Predict network loadings, prevent overloads, and anticipate future needs
  • Model generators, transformers, and other equipment mathematically
  • Solve nonlinear load flow equations
  • Deploy algorithms in software
  • Efficiently troubleshoot emerging problems
  • Discover common causes of solution difficulties

Electrical load flow analysis is critically important in the planning and management of power networks. This expert guide gives you all the tools you need to gain a detailed understanding of the subject.
