As more renewable energy sources and battery storage units are specified and incorporated into power systems, consultant specifying engineers are faced with many challenges that could impact the ...

Engineering efforts to simulate radial-flux machines concentrate on inherently 2D problems. Most of the 2D FEA software is good for "quick-and-easy" solutions demanded by shorter design schedules.

As global power grids transition from centralized fossil-based generation to decentralized, renewable sources, system stability has become a critical challenge. The phasing out of synchronous ...

As coal and gas plants are taken offline to be replaced by wind and solar, grid stability and system strength can become serious challenges. This is due to the inherent inertia provided by rotating ...

In simple terms, inertia refers to the energy stored in the rotating masses of synchronous generators, typically found in traditional thermal power plants. This stored kinetic energy acts as a cushion ...

Global demand for electricity supply continues to grow. Power generation providers constantly evaluate capacity additions and the tradeoffs between alternatives. Since American utilities are building ...
