Handbook of Modern Sensors Physics, Designs, and Applications

This book is about devices commonly called sensors. The invention of a microprocessor
has brought highly sophisticated instruments into our everyday lives.
Numerous computerized appliances, of which microprocessors are integral parts,
wash clothes and prepare coffee, play music, guard homes, and control room temperature.
Microprocessors are digital devices that manipulate binary codes generally
represented by electric signals. Yet, we live in an analog world where these devices
function among objects that are mostly not digital. Moreover, this world is generally
not electrical (apart from the atomic level). Digital systems, however complex and
intelligent they might be, must receive information from the outside world. Sensors
are interface devices between various physical values and electronic circuits who
“understand” only a language of moving electrical charges. In other words, sensors
are the eyes, ears, and noses of silicon chips. Sensors have become part of everyone’s
life. In the United States alone, they comprise a $12 billion industry.

Uncertainty in the Electric Power Industry

The primary intention of this book is not to provide an in-depth
discussion of the regulatory challenges at hand after more than one decade of
electricity market deregulation around the world – but analyzing the key
decision problems of players in the industry certainly is a useful and
necessary first step when aiming at the design of efficient and robust electric
power markets. And by bringing together material and approaches from
different disciplines, the volume at hand hopefully helps both practitioners
and academics to identify the adequate models for the challenges they have
to cope with.

Uncertainty in the Electric Power

Newnes Electrical Power Engineers Handbook

This book uses notation in accordance with the current British and International
Standards. Units for engineering quantities are printed in upright roman characters, with
a space between the numerical value and the unit, but no space between the decimal
prefix and the unit, e.g. 275 kV.

Understanding Electric Utilities and De-Regulation

This book is intended as a reference book and a tutorial guide for those
many non-engineering professionals who find themselves part of an industry
dominated at every turn by esoteric engineering concepts and technical
terminology. It will also serve engineers, economists, and utility managers by
providing a non-technical overview of how their particular fields interact with
the whole. Electric power has become such a wide landscape that many of the
most experienced experts have little opportunity to see how their contributions
fit into the big picture, particularly with respect to how all its interconnected
facets are evolving under de-regulation. The authors have endeavored to make
the entire discussion as understandable as possible, but nonetheless complete.

Understanding Electric Utilities and De-Reguration

Electrical Power Systems Quality

Power quality issues frequently cross the energy meter boundary
between the utility and the end user. Therefore, this book addresses
issues of interest to both utility engineers and industrial engineers and
technicians. Every attempt has been made to provide a balanced
approach to the presentation of the problems and solutions.
The book should also be of interest to designers of manufacturing
equipment, computers, appliances, and other load equipment. It will
help designers learn about the environment in which their equipment
must operate and the peculiar difficulties their customers might have
when trying to operate their equipment. Hopefully, this book will serve
as common ground on which these three entities-utility, customer,
and equipment supplier-can meet to resolve problems.
This book is intended to serve both as a reference book and a textbook
for utility distribution engineers and key technical personnel with industrial
end users. Parts of the book are tutorial in nature for the newcomer
to power quality and power systems, while other parts are very technical,
intended strictly as reference for the experienced practitioner.

Electrical Engineer Portable Handbook

This book is talking about : electrical design
professionals in the preliminary design of buildings of all types and sizes.

This book is unique among handbooks. It provides myriad valuable
time-saving data for the experienced practitioner, yet there are enough
concept explanations and examples on critical topics to use it as a teaching
tool for the fledgling electrical design professional.Also, the topics of
Chapters 3 through 7, in particular, are arranged in a sequence that
closely approximates the normal design process flow to facilitate speed
for the experienced practitioner and learning for the beginner.The Index
has been expanded to facilitate quickly locating needed information.
This book is not a substitute for professional expertise or other books
of a more detailed and specialized nature, but will be a continuing everyday
aid that takes the more useful “cream” off the top of other sources.
