To aid this understanding, \u003ci\u003eEnergy Production Systems Engineering\u003c\/i\u003edescribes the equipment and systems found in various types of utility electric generation stations.  This information is accompanied by examples and practice problems.  It also addresses common issues of electrical safety that arise in electric generation stations.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cul\u003e \u003cli\u003eIntroduces fundamental safety requirements from NFPA70 (National Electrical Code), NFPA70E (Electrical Safety in the Workplace), and IEEE C2 (National Electrical Safety Code) \u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eProvides methods for measuring radioactivity and exposure limits\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eIncludes IEEE, American Petroleum Institute (API), and  National Electrical Manufacturers Association (NEMA) standards for motor applications\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eIntroduces the IEEE C37 series of standards, which describe the proper selections and applications of switchgear\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eDescribes how to use IEEE 80 to calculate the touch and step potential of a ground grid design\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eShows how to perform cable pulling tension calculations \u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eExplains fundamental thermodynamic calculations utilized for heat balance in steam plants\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eIntroduces renewable technologies such as wind and solar power\u003c\/li\u003e \u003c\/ul\u003e There are several different types of energy production systems or electric power systems, which supply, transmit, and use power in different ways. Each system utilizes different equipment and has its own set of standards to follow in order for the system to be operated safely and reliably.  This book enables engineers and students to acquire through study the pragmatic knowledge and skills in the field that could take years to acquire through experience alone.","brand":"Wiley-IEEE Press","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47989134262501,"sku":"NP9781119238003","price":162.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1842\/7735\/files\/9781119238003.jpg?v=1761782934","url":"https:\/\/k12savings.com\/es\/products\/energy-production-systems-engineering-isbn-9781119238003","provider":"K12savings","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
