Das, J. C.

Opis

This book discusses the major aspects of load flow and culminates in modern heuristic optimization techniques and evolutionary programming. In the deregulated environment, the economic provision of electrical power to consumers requires knowledge of how to maintain a certain power quality and load flow; this knowledge is provided in the text.
