In a clear and systematic manner, this book presents an exhaustive exposition of the various dimensions of electrical power systems. Both basic and advanced topics have been thoroughly explained and illustrated through solved examples.Salient Features *Fundamentals of power systems, line constant calculations and performance of overhead lines have been discussed *Mechanical design of lines, HVDC lines, Corona, Insulators and Insulated cables have been explained as well as Voltage control, Neutral grounding and Transients in power systems. *Fault calculation, protective relays including digital relays and circuit breakers discussed in that order. *Power systems synchronous stability and voltage stability explained. *Insulation coordination and over-voltage protection explained. *Modern topics like Load Flows, Economic Load Dispatch, Load Frequency Control and Compensation in Power System nicely developed and explained using flow charts wherever required. *Zbus formulation, power transformers and synchronous machines as power system elements highlighted. *Large number of solved examples, practice problems and multiple choice questions included. Answers to problems and multiple-choice questions provided.With all these features, this is an invaluable text book for undergraduate electrical engineering students of Indian and foreign universities. AMIE, GATE, all competitive examination candidates and practising engineers would also find this book very useful.Contents ?Fundamentals of Power Systems?Line Constant Calculations?Capacitance of Transmission Lines?Performance of Lines?High Voltage d.c.

The most important 'special functions' such as Hermite, Legendre, Laguerre, Chebyshev, are discussed in terms of their applications in quantum mechanics to bring interest in this subject.Finally, starting with the Fourier series, the important 'integral transforms', such as Fourier, Laplace and Hilbert are described with an inclination towards 'applications' for both undergraduate and postgraduate students in various branches of engineering as well as for readers doing postgraduate studies in general and applied sciences.Although 'tensor analysis' is not taught in many undergraduate courses; a short chapter is included at the end to briefly introduce the subject. This book is designed to evoke interests among the students as well as among the teachers on how to tackle various mathematical issues involved in the field of applications in order to get better mathematical insights and flavour.Contents ?Matrix Algebra ?Determinants ?Vector Calculus (Gradient, Divergence and Curl) ?Gauss, Green Stoke's Theorem ?Dirac Delta Function ?Differential Calculus ?Frobenius Method ?Convergence ?Orthogonality ?Wronskian ?Analytic Function ?Taylor Series ?Laurent Expansion ?Singularities ?Calculus of Residues (Cauchy Reimann) ?Hermite Polynomials
