Structure Preserving Energy Functions in Power Systems: Theory and Applications

Description:

This reference describes the analytics of monitoring and predicting dynamic security and emergency control through the illustration of theory and applications of energy functions defined on structure preserving models. The author primarily describes different facets of dynamic analysis of large bulk power systems such as system stability evaluation, dynamic security assessment, and adaptive protection, among others. To be used as a guide for software development of the dynamic security assessment of power systems, this book supports illustration of SPEFs by examples and case studies, including descriptions of applications in real-time monitoring, adaptive protection, and emergency control.

Review Quotes:

"The main strength of the book seems to be its entirety. .... One really has a feeling that there's everything one may need from this field. As the subject of energy functions is not always easy to understand, it is also important that the theoretical considerations are supported by examples and case studies. ... The book represents the state of the art in the field of structure preserving energy functions for power systems."
--Rafael Mihalic, Full Professor, Faculty of Electrical Engineering, Ljubljana, Slovenia

"This book is an excellent reference for the power system community, as it provides thorough coverage of technical aspects such as power system stability, security, direct methods for transient stability, and the application of HVDC and FACTS for stability improvements."
--Dr. Ram Adapa, Technical Leader, EPRI, Palo Alto, California, USA
