Electric power systems are experiencing significant changes at the worldwide scale in order to become cleaner, smarter, and more reliable. The book addresses research topics such as high efficiency transforrmers, wind turbines and generators, fuel cells, or high speed turbines and generators.

Focusing specifically on active compensators and DSP based control algorithms, this book introduces fundamental problems of electrical power, and presents and assesses a range of methods and problems related to improving the quality of electric power supply.

This books bring together current research as well as thoughts on future research directions into high-performance computing applications in electric power systems planning, operations, security, markets and grid integration of alternate sources of energy.

Monitoring, Control and Protection of Interconnected Power Systems

This book presents a solid theoretical foundation of the modern mitigation technologies employed in the power quality arena, and provides an overview of the most recent challenges in this field. The book introduces the advanced concepts associated with power quality to engineers and students.

This useful reference allows readers to compare and learn from best-practice and up-to-date information in this exciting field from Europe, the US and Australia. It shows how to overcome day-to-day and strategic engineering problems, rather than concentrating on policy and market-structural issues.

In little more than a decade, the availability of nuclear power plants in the United States and most European and Pacific Rim countries has increased dramatically­ from around 60% to about 90%. Such improvement is equivalent to adding approximately 30,000 MW e of new generating capacity in this period in the United States and perhaps an equal amount elsewhere. Some of this improvement has been due to longer fuel cycles-increases from 12 months to 18 or 24 months, but the major gains have been due to on-line maintenance and improved operation and planning by the utilities, accomplished primarily by training of plant operators and support personnel. However, there are emerging indications that the benefits of training are asymptotically approaching the limit beyond which it cannot improve availability and that plant personnel errors may also be approaching a comparable lower limit. Indeed, further improvement appears to be dependent upon the effective introduction and use of plant operational support systems. The Halden Reactor Project (HRP) historically has focused on plant operational support system, i. e. , such tools as COPMA (Computerized OPeration MAnuals), PEANO (Process Evaluation and Analysis by Neural Operators), TEMPO (ThErMal Performance and Optimization), PLASMA (PLAnt Safety Monitoring and Assessment system), and others.
