About this title

Synopsis

The classic guide to power system stability and control―updated for the latest advances

This thoroughly revised engineering guide contains the hands-on information needed to understand, model, analyze, and solve problems using the latest technical tools. You will explore the structure of modern power systems, the different levels of control, and the nature of stability problems. Power System Stability and Control, Second Edition contains complete explanations of equipment characteristics and modeling techniques along with real-world examples. This edition features coverage of adaptive control and other emerging applications, including cyber security of power systems.

Coverage includes:

• General characteristics of modern power systems
• The power grid stability problem
• Synchronous machine theory and modelling
• Synchronous machine parameters
• Synchronous machine representation in stability studies
• AC transmission
• Power system loads
• Excitation systems
• Prime movers and energy supply systems
• High-voltage DC transmission
