Power System Analysis

Power System Analysis By John J. Grainger and William D. Stevenson, Jr.

Originally developed as a complete modernization of Stevenson's classic Elements of Power System Analysis, this text became a standard reference in its own right for senior and first-year graduate students studying power systems. It builds a strong grounding in the fundamental elements of modern power systems — generation, transmission, operation, and control — through clear discussions paired with numerous worked examples and end-of-chapter problems, giving students the tools to analyze real-life power system problems rather than just abstract theory.

Topics commonly covered include basic concepts of power systems, transformers, the synchronous machine, series impedance and capacitance of transmission lines, current and voltage relations on transmission lines, admittance and impedance network models, power flow solutions, symmetrical and unsymmetrical faults, symmetrical components and sequence networks, economic operation of power systems, Zbus methods in contingency analysis, power system state estimation, and power system stability.

Key features:

• Modernized, senior/graduate-level rewrite of Stevenson's classic power systems text

• Dedicated chapter on power system state estimation covering current developments in the field

• In-depth treatment of economic operation, including line losses and penalty factors

• Numerous worked examples and homework problems throughout every chapter

• Long-standing McGraw-Hill reference for power system engineering coursework

Perfect for:

• Undergraduate senior and first-year graduate electrical engineering students

• Students taking a dedicated power systems analysis course

• Students needing a solid grounding in generation, transmission, and system control

• Practicing engineers working on power flow, fault analysis, or system stability studies
