Description

Now in its Third Edition, Alternative Energy Systems: Design and Analysis with Induction Generators has been renamed Modeling and Analysis with Induction Generators to convey the book's primary objective--to present the fundamentals of and latest advances in the modeling and analysis of induction generators.

New to the Third Edition

Revised equations and mathematical modeling
Addition of solved problems as well as suggested problems at the end of each chapter
New modeling and simulation cases
Mathematical modeling of the Magnus turbine to be used with induction generators
Detailed comparison between the induction generators and their competitors

Modeling and Analysis with Induction Generators, Third Edition aids in understanding the process of self-excitation, numerical analysis of stand-alone and multiple induction generators, requirements for optimized laboratory experimentation, application of modern vector control, optimization of power transference, use of doubly fed induction generators, computer-based simulations, and social and economic impacts.
