Power Quality in Power Systems, Electrical Machines, and Power-Electronic Drives is a comprehensive resource for engineering professionals and students seeking to address power quality problems in a cost-effective, reliable, and safe manner within the context of renewable energy systems. The book encompasses a wide range of topics related to power quality, including AC and DC transmission and distribution lines, end-user applications such as electric machines, transformers, inductors, capacitors, wind power, and photovoltaic power plants, as well as variable-speed, variable-torque power-electronic drives.

Nonsinusoidal waveshapes, voltage disturbances, harmonic losses, aging and lifetime reductions, single-time events such as voltage dips, and the effects of variable-speed drives controlled by PWM converters are all covered in detail. Additionally, the book reviews a corpus of techniques to mitigate power-quality problems, such as the optimal design of renewable energy storage devices (including lithium-ion batteries and fuel cells for automobiles serving as energy storage), and the optimal design of nonlinear loads for simultaneous efficiency and power quality.

The book is organized into five chapters, each covering a specific aspect of power quality. Chapter 1 provides an introduction to power quality, including its definition, importance, and challenges. Chapter 2 discusses the fundamentals of power systems, including electric power generation, transmission, and distribution. Chapter 3 explores the various types of power quality problems and their causes, including voltage sags, swells, harmonics, and flicker. Chapter 4 examines the measurement and analysis of power quality, including the use of power quality meters, oscilloscopes, and data logging systems. Chapter 5 presents solutions to power quality problems, including the use of power conditioners, filters, and active power controllers.

Throughout the book, real-world examples and case studies are used to illustrate the concepts and techniques discussed. These examples help to reinforce the theoretical understanding and provide practical insights into the application of power quality engineering. Power Quality in Power Systems, Electrical Machines, and Power-Electronic Drives is an essential resource for anyone involved in the design, operation, and maintenance of power systems, electrical machines, and power-electronic drives. It provides a comprehensive and up-to-date overview of power quality issues, and offers practical solutions to help engineers solve power quality problems in a cost-effective and reliable manner.
