Power quality in power systems and electrical machines

Power Quality in Power Systems and Electrical Machines provides a comprehensive reference for understanding the causes, effects, modeling, measurement and resolution of power quality issues. This extensive volume covers power quality problems including nonsinusoidal wave shapes, voltage outages, harmonic losses, origins of single-time events such as voltage dips, voltage reductions and outages, along with techniques to mitigate these problems. Key Features: - Provides both theoretical and practical insight into power quality problems of machines and systems - Includes application examples implemented in SPICE, Mathematica and MATLAB - Numerous end-of-chapter problems - Analytical as well as measuring techniques are applied to power quality problems as they occur in existing systems - Provides extensive references (700+) - Suitable for use as an undergraduate/graduate course textbook as well as reference for professionals
