While the basic operating principles of Helical Magnetic Flux Compression Generators are easy to understand, the details of their construction and performance limits have been described only in government reports, many of them classified. Conferences in the field of flux compression are also dominated by contributions from government (US and foreign) laboratories. And the government-sponsored research has usually been concerned with very large generators with explosive charges that require elaborate facilities and safety arrangements. This book emphasizes research into small generators...

Power system modelling and scripting is a quite general and ambitious title. Of course, to embrace all existing aspects of power system modelling would lead to an encyclopedia and would be likely an impossible task. Thus, the book focuses on a subset of power system models based on the following assumptions: (i) devices are modelled as a set of nonlinear differential algebraic equations, (ii) all alternate-current devices are operating in three-phase balanced fundamental frequency, and (iii) the time frame of the dynamics of interest ranges from tenths to tens of seconds. These assumptions...

This book presents a methodology for assessing the advantages of microgrids from both a business and energy resilience perspective. Microgrids incorporate distributed generators and electrochemical energy storage systems within end-user facilities that have critical loads. By utilizing renewable energy sources and electrochemical energy storage, the life-cycle cost of energy within microgrids connected to the electrical grid can be significantly reduced. Moreover, the book explores how the design of microgrids can enhance the resilience of power supply to customers, as measured by the...
