The principles of the First Edition--to teach students and engineers the fundamentals of electrical transients and equip them with the skills to recognize and solve transient problems in power networks and components--also guide this Second Edition. While the text continues to stress the physical aspects of the phenomena involved in these problems, it also broadens and updates the computational treatment of transients. Necessarily, two new chapters address the subject of modeling and models for most types of equipment are discussed. The adequacy of the models, their validation and the relationship between model and the physical entity it represents are also examined. There are now chapters devoted entirely to isolation coordination and protection, reflecting the revolution that metal oxide surge arresters have caused in the power industry. Features additional and more complete illustrative material--figures, diagrams and worked examples. An entirely new chapter of case studies demonstrates modeling and computational techniques as they have been applied by engineers to specific problems.

In this textbook, a variety of transient cases that have occurred or are possible to occur in power systems are discussed and analyzed. It starts by categorizing transients’ phenomena and specifying unfavorable situations in power systems raised by transients. It then moves on to different protective measures that have been implemented in the system to prevent disasters caused by those transients. It also explains different methodologies used to analyze transients in power systems. This book discusses the modeling of components very extensively and provides analysis cases to assess a wide variety of transients, their possible effects on the system, and the types of protection commonly used for each case, along with methods fordesigning a sound protection system. FEATURES • Detailed models of system components along with power systems computer- aided design (PSCAD) implementation and analysis • Comprehensive reference of transient cases in power systems along with design considerations and protective solutions • The cases are not limited to classical transients such as lightning strikes and switching, but rather the book discusses transient cases that power system operators and engineers have to deal with, such as ferroresonance, in detail, accompanied by computer simulations • A chapter on original materials related to transformer windings with induced traveling waves Power System Transients: Modelling Simulation and Applications provides a comprehensive resource to mainly educate graduate students in the area of power system transients. It also serves as a reference for industry engineers challenged by transient problems in the system. .
