This book provides an understanding of the nature of short-circuit currents, current interruption theories, circuit breaker types, calculations according to ANSI/IEEE and IEC standards, theoretical and practical basis of short-circuit current sources, and the rating structure of switching devices. The book aims to explain the nature of short-circuit currents, the symmetrical components for unsymmetrical faults, and matrix methods of solutions, which are invariably used on digital computers. It includes innovations, worked examples, case studies, and solved problems.

Detect and Mitigate Transients in Electrical Systems This practical guide explains how to identify the origin of disturbances in electrical systems and analyze them for effective mitigation and control. Transients in Electrical Systems considers all transient frequencies, ranging from 0.1 Hz to 50 MHz, and discusses transmission line and cable modeling as well as frequency dependent behavior. Results of EMTP simulations, solved examples, and detailed equations are included in this comprehensive resource. Transients in Electrical Systems covers: Transients in lumped circuits Control systems Lightning strokes, shielding, and backflashovers Transients of shunt capacitor banks Switching transients and temporary overvoltages Current interruption in AC circuits Symmetrical and unsymmetrical short-circuit currents Transient behavior of synchronous generators, induction and synchronous motors, and transformers Power electronic equipment Flicker, bus, transfer, and torsional vibrations Insulation coordination Gas insulated substations Transients in low-voltage and grounding systems Surge arresters DC systems, short-circuits, distributions, and HVDC Smart grids and wind power generation

Induction Machines Handbook: Transients, Control Principles, Design and Testing presents a practical up-to-date treatment of intricate issues with induction machines (IM) required for design and testing in both rather constant- and variable-speed (with power electronics) drives. It contains ready-to-use industrial design and testing knowledge, with numerous case studies to facilitate a thorough assimilation of new knowledge. Individual Chapters 1 through 14 discuss in detail the following: Three- and multiphase IM transients Single-phase source IM transients Super-high-frequency models and behavior of IM Motor specifications and design principles IM design below 100 kW and constant V1 and f1 IM design above 100 kW and constant V1 and f1 IM design principles for variable speed Optimization design Single-phase IM design Three-phase IM generators Single-phase IM generators Linear induction motors Testing of three-phase IMs Single-phase IM testing Fully revised and amply updated to add the new knowledge of the last decade, this third edition includes special sections on Multiphase IM models for transients Doubly fed IMs models for transients Cage-rotor synchronized reluctance motors Cage-rotor PM synchronous motor Transient operation of self-excited induction generator Brushless doubly fed induction motor/generators Doubly fed induction generators with D.C. output Linear induction motor control with end effect Recent trends in IM testing with power electronics Cage-PM rotor line-start IM testing Linear induction motor (LIM) testing This up-to-date book discusses in detail the transients, control principles, and design and testing of various IMs for line-start and variable-speed applications in various topologies, with numerous case studies. It will be of direct assistance to academia and industry in conceiving, designing, fabricating, and testing IMs (for the future) of various industries, from home appliances, through robotics, e-transport, and renewable energy conversion.

This popular, easy-to-read book offers a comprehensive yet unique treatment of electrical machines and their historical development. Electrical Machines and Their Applications, Third Edition covers an in-depth analysis of machines augmented with ample examples, which makes it suitable for both those who are new to electric machines and for those who want to deepen their knowledge of electric machines. This book provides a thorough discussion of electrical machines. It starts by reviewing the basics of concepts needed to fully understand the machines, e.g., three-phase circuits and fundamentals of energy conversion, and continues to discuss transformers, induction machines, synchronous machines, dc machines, and other special machines and their dynamics. This natural progression creates a unifying theme and helps the reader appreciate how the same physical laws of energy conversion govern the operation and dynamics of different machine types. The text is sprinkled with ample examples to further solidify the discussed concepts. Several well-placed appendices make the book self-contained and even easier to follow. This book is part of a series on power system topics originally authored by the late Turan Gönen. The book has been edited by Ali Mehrizi-Sani to bring it up to date while maintaining its original charm. Both new and seasoned readers for Gönen’s books will find this new edition a much-awaited update to the second edition.
