Electric Machinery Fundamentalscontinues to be a best-selling machinery text due to its accessible, student-friendly coverage of the important topics in the field. In the fifth edition, the use of MATLAB® continues to be incorporated in examples and problems, where applicable. The targeted and thought-provoking problems you've come to appreciate have been retained in this edition. Chapman continues to share his up-to-date knowledge and experiences in the field in an engaging and understandable style.
Covering virtually all areas of distribution engineering, Power Distribution Engineering: Fundamentals and Applications is a complete reference work that examines the unique behavior of utilities and provides the practical knowledge engineers need to solve real-world distribution problems. Furnishing over 425 helpful equations, tables, drawings, and photographs, it describes different types of system designs and grounding as well as values for voltage, line lengths, and load and fault levels; details the loading, construction, and rating of various transformers; and evaluates utilities using economic techniques that incorporate ideas such as present worth, carrying charge, and cost of losses.
Based on William Stevenson's classic, Elements of Power System Analysis, this new senior/graduate text offers a completely modern update of this popular textbook. Covering such topics as power flow, power-system stability and transmission lines, the book teaches the fundamental topics of power system analysis accompanied by logical discussions and numerous examples.
