Powerline Ampacity System: Theory, Modeling and Applications

By Anjan K. Deb

As the demand for electricity grows, new methods and systems are required to maximize the use of power plants, transmission, and distributions lines. Power Line Ampacity System helps readers meet that challenge. After presenting a complete theory of conductor thermal rating, it develops a power line ampacity system by object-oriented modeling and expert rules. It describes new transmission line conductor technologies and power electronics FACTS devices that take full advantage of a dynamic line rating system. Examples clearly show the economic benefit in the operation of an interconnected transmission network that has a diverse mix of electricity generation sources.
