This book offers a broad coverage of the theory and practice of industrial microwave heating.

Power transformers are a key asset for electricity utilities. However, aging populations of power transformers require monitoring and diagnostics techniques to extend their lifetime and minimise the possibility of failure. This book describes the most popular power transformer condition monitoring techniques from principles to practice.

This book describes the systems and equipment used for measuring and controlling boilers and heat-recovery steam-generators used in land and marine power plant and in process industries. It provides a practical guide to the design, installation, operation and maintenance of these systems.

Worldwide, the automotive industry is being challenged to make dramatic improvements in vehicle fuel economy, This 2nd Edition of Propulsion Systems for Hybrid Vehicles addresses the electrification innovations that will be required.

This book provides a comprehensive treatment of the subject from both a physical and mathematical perspective and covers a range of topics including modelling, computation of load flow in the transmission grid, stability analysis under both steady-state and disturbed conditions, and appropriate controls to enhance stability.

This timely overview of silicon solar cell surface passivation, written by the leading experts in the field, is a key read for students and researchers working with silicon solar cells, as well as solar cell manufacturers.

This book presents a comprehensive introduction to the principals involved in the use of narrowband and broadband PLC technologies in the SG, and to using these technologies particularly when intermittent renewable energies sources are employed.

This book covers the use of fuzzy logic for power grids. Power systems need to accommodate intermittent renewables and changes in loads while ensuring high power quality. Fuzzy logic uses values between 0 and 1 rather than binary ones, offering advantages in adaptability for energy systems with renewables.
