Description
Today, there are various textbooks dealing with a broad range of topics in the power system area of electrical engineering. Some of them are considered to be classics. However, they do not particularly concentrate on topics dealing with electric power transmission. Therefore, Electrical Power Transmission System Engineering: Analysis and Design, as a textbook, is unique; it is written specifically for an in-depth study of modern power transmission engineering.
Written in the classic, self-learning style of the original, Electrical Power Transmission System Engineering: Analysis and Design, Fourth Edition is updated and features:
HVDC system operation and control
Renewable energy (including wind and solar energy)
Detailed numerical examples and problems
MATLAB (R) applications
This book includes a comprehensive and systematic introduction of electric power transmission systems, from basic transmission planning and concepts to various available types of transmission systems. Written particularly for a student or practicing engineer who may want to teach himself or herself, the basic material has been explained carefully, clearly, and in detail with numerous examples, which is also useful for professors. In addition to detailed basic knowledge of transmission lines, new components enabling modern electronics and renewable penetrated transmission systems are emphasized. The discussion goes beyond the usual analytical and qualitative analysis to cover overall aspects of transmission system analysis and design.
The enhanced ebook version includes interactive true and false questions, quizzes and homework problems for all the chapters. This book is an invaluable resource which empowers engineers, researchers, and students to navigate the dynamic landscape of electric power transmission system.

Turan Goenen, a distinguished figure in the field of electrical engineering, held the esteemed position of being a professor of electrical engineering and also served as the director of the Electrical Power Educational Institute at California State University, Sacramento. Goenen's educational background was adorned with a B.S. and M.S. in electrical engineering from Istanbul Technical College, followed by a Ph.D. in electrical engineering from Iowa State University. His academic pursuits extended further as he achieved an M.S. in industrial engineering and a Ph.D. with a co-major in industrial engineering from Iowa State University, alongside obtaining an MBA from the University of Oklahoma. Goenen first authored this book in 1988. His contributions to academia and research were substantial, marked by a portfolio of over 100 technical papers. His expertise was recognized as he held the distinction of being an IEEE Senior Member. He passed away in 2014.
