Summary

Advanced Electric Power Network Analysis focuses on the steady-state analysis of power systems, with more emphasis placed on network analysis. To meet the requirements for computerized calculations, mathematical expressions, such as matrix and vector descriptions, are adapted to computational solutions throughout the book. Mathematical modeling, methods of solution, and the implementation of computer programming are also integrated in a systematic manner. Part 1 introduces the fundamentals of electric power network analysis. The second part introduces the applications of steady-state analysis of electric power networks, with the focus on load flow and fault analysis. Apart from conventional load flow formulation, some special-purpose load flows, such as DC load flow, fast decoupled load flow, and sensitivity-based load flow, are discussed.
