Preface

The simulation of electromagnetic transients is a mature field that plays an important role in the design of modern power systems. From the first steps in this field up to today, a significant effort has been dedicated to the development of new techniques and more powerful software tools. Sophisticated models, complex solution techniques and powerful simulation tools have been developed to perform studies that are of paramount importance in the design of modern power systems. The first developments of transients tools were mostly aimed at calculating overvoltages. Presently, these tools are applied into a myriad of studies (e.g. FACTS and custom power applications, protective relay performance, power quality studies) for which detailed models and fast solution methods can be of huge importance.

The story of this book may be traced back to the General Meeting that the IEEE Power and Energy Society held in July 2010, when the Analysis of System Transients using Digital Programs Working Group gave a tutorial course on ‘Transient analysis of power systems. Solution techniques, tools and applications’. The tutorial provided a basic background to the main aspects to be considered when performing electromagnetic transients studies (solution techniques, parameter determination, modelling guidelines), detailed some of the main applications of present transients tools (overvoltage calculation, power electronics applications, protection) and discussed more recent developments ...
