The book contains chapters that address power quality across diverse facets of electric energy engineering, including AC and DC transmission and distribution lines; end-user applications such as electric machines, transformers, inductors, capacitors, wind power, and photovoltaic power plants; and variable-speed, variable-torque power-electronic drives. The book covers nonsinusoidal waveshapes, voltage disturbances, harmonic losses, aging and lifetime reductions, single-time events such as voltage dips, and the effects of variable-speed drives controlled by PWM converters.
The book also reviews a corpus of techniques to mitigate power-quality problems, such as the optimal design of renewable energy storage devices (including lithium-ion batteries and fuel cells for automobiles serving as energy storage), and the optimal design of nonlinear loads for simultaneous efficiency and power quality.
- Provides theoretical and practical insights into power-quality problems related to future, smart grid, renewable, hybrid electric power systems, electric machines, and variable-speed, variable-torque power-electronic drives
- Contains a highly varied corpus of practical applications drawn from current international practice
- Designed as a self-study tool with end-of-chapter problems and solutions designed to build understanding
- Includes very highly referenced chapters that enable readers to save time and money in the research discovery process for critical research articles, regulatory standards, and guidelines
Engineering professionals, researchers, and postgrads working in power systems, renewable energy conversion, power system protection, and power-electronic drives and power-electronic components related to wind and photovoltaic power plants as well as variable-speed drives for electric automobiles, trains, planes and ships powered either by batteries, fuel cells or methanation-combustion drives that use COx through hydrogenation
