Review Power Plants and Power Systems Control 2000 (IFAC Proceedings Volumes) / Pergamon:With the decentralisation and liberalisation of the electrical energy system in Europe, the network companies as well as the power plant companies will be faced with many new emerging technical problems. This Proceedings contains papers presented at the IFAC 2000 Symposium on Power Plants and Power Systems Control; this symposium aimed to provided international experts with a platform to discuss the challenges facing the power plant industry, and to present solutions developed in countries who have previously encountered these new paradigms of grid control. One of the main aims of the symposium was to promote a better knowledge of the behaviour of the power plants and power systems, with the ultimate goal of an efficient, flexible and secure operation coupled with a high level of service to their customers.

Review Circuit Analysis for Power Engineering Handbook / Springer:This handbook on circuit analysis is one of the few texts to address the needs of power systems engineers. Unlike many previous books on the subject, which have had an emphasis on low current circuit analysis, this book considers the circuits and topics which are more relevant to power and high current systems. Consideration is given to both steady state and transient conditions and many examples of power system circuits are included. The coverage is comprehensive with the first chapters reviewing the basics in a generalised manner before the author concentrates upon more advanced material. The text gives an in-depth analysis of such areas as magnetically coupled circuits, three phase systems, the non-sinusoidal behaviour of electric circuits and transmission lines. This handbook will be an invaluable tool for professional engineers in industrial power companies working in the area of power generation and distribution. It is also relevant to postgraduate students and researchers in heavy electrical engineering.

Review Electrostatic Precipitator Handbook, / Taylor & Francis:The operation of oil- and coal-fired power stations in our environmentally conscious era requires the efficient removal of dust from the exhaust gases. Electrostatic precipitators accomplish this task successfully. This book aims to provide a practical 'hands on' treatment of electrostatic precipitation for the power station engineer. It is also an excellent introduction to the subject for students. The first six chapters explain the basic principles of both tube- and parallel-plate precipitators, and the processes of dust charging and collection. There follows a discussion of the properties of dust, with emphasis on the problems encountered with both high- and low-resistivity dusts. Later chapters deal with electrode design and alignment, and the question of safety for power station personnel. Finally, strategies for the maintenance of existing equipment and the procurement of new precipitators are evaluated.

Review Advanced Control of Solar Plants (Advances in Industrial Control) / Springer-Verlag Telos:There is some degree of separation between the development of advanced control algorithms within the research community and their use in industrial practice. Several strategies developed from experimental research into improving the efficiency of solar th ermal power plants are here examined in the context of their industrial application. The techniques described and applied are the modelling and simulation of solar processes, robust control, adaptive control, model-based predictive control and fuzzy logic control. Their effectiveness is assessed and the various techniques' advantages and drawbacks are analyzed and compared. The results obtained can be readily extended to other industrial processes; in this context, the solar control process examined provides an ideal test-bed since it exhibits many of the problems found in other processes , such as nonlinearities, changing dynamics and strong external disturbances.
