"One of the most important and critical constituents of power systems, transformers require deep practical knowledge about their design and operating practices. Blending theory and practice, this second edition of a bestselling text reinforces previous knowledge and offers significant updates and additional information. New topics include short-circuit stresses and withstand, advanced electromagnetic field computations, insulation design, and diagnostic techniques. Using modern computational techniques to solve intricate problems, this edition also presents a completely new chapter on modeling of transformers for power system studies and elaborates on a sample design of a typical power transformer"-- Provided by publisher.
