Constant-Voltage Transmission: A Discussion of the Use of Synchronous Motors for Eliminating Variation in Voltage in Electric Power Systems (Classic Reprint) - Softcover
Synopsis
This book argues that synchronous motors are underutilized in power systems and that their use in constant-voltage transmission can improve transmission efficiency while reducing costs. Historically, electrical engineers sought to reduce energy loss from voltage variation through higher voltages at transmission lines' termini. However, this approach is costly due to the increasingly expensive terminals required. The author shows how synchronous motors can correct for voltage variation, allowing for lower voltage at the transmission line's end, which reduces costs and improves overall efficiency. The book provides a historical context for this method, showing that voltage variation correction via synchronous motors has been attempted in the past. The author contends that only recently have the full benefits of this approach been understood. By demonstrating how to extend the capacity of transmission lines and reduce overall construction costs, this book will appeal to professionals in the field of electrical engineering.
