Power System Dynamics and Stability

by Jan Machowski

As the demand for electrical power increases, power systems are being operated closer to their stability limits. This text focuses on explaining and analysing the dynamic performance of such systems which is important for both system operation and planning. Placing emphasis on understanding the underlying physical principles, the book opens with an exploration of basic concepts using simple mathematical models. Building on these firm foundations the authors proceed to more complex model and algorithms.
