This book, titled "Power Systems with MATLAB," focuses on both the theoretical and practical aspects of power systems for undergraduate students studying Electrical Engineering. Electric Power System is a critical and intricate subject for students, and this book covers fundamental topics, such as line constant calculations, performance of lines, PU, faults, and MATLAB for Renewable energy. It also delves into more advanced topics like load flow studies in power systems.
The book provides a wide range of electrical power system studies in one comprehensive resource, making it an excellent reference for students. The manual is written in a clear and concise manner, making it easy for students to use and understand MATLAB programs on power systems. The author has carefully considered the challenges students face in the laboratory and has prepared laboratory notes after consulting various books on electrical power systems. The book includes an extensive bibliography, which will help students locate detailed information on different topics of interest.
